CENTER PANEL
Auto Hold temporarily maintains the vehicle at a standstill
even though the brake pedal is not depressed after the
driver brings the vehicle to a complete stop by depressing
the brake pedal. Auto Hold can be turned On/Off using the
AUTO HOLD button B on the center panel below the gear
shift. Before Auto Hold will operate, the driver’s door, engine
hood and liftgate must be closed, and the driver’s seat belt
must be fastened.
The AUTO HOLD indicator on the Instrument Cluster
has four states:
White: Standby - With vehicle at a standstill and AUTO
HOLD button B pressed ON, the indicator will illuminate
white. While driving the vehicle (vehicle is not at a
standstill), the Auto Hold indicator will remain white.
Green: Engaged - When coming to a complete stop
by depressing the brake pedal, the Auto Hold indicator
changes from white to green.
Off (not illuminated) - The indicator will turn off when the AUTO HOLD
button B is manually pressed off or when the EPB is manually turned on.
Yellow: Malfunction - When the indicator is illuminated yellow, there may
be a system malfunction. Take your vehicle to a local Kia dealer.
REMINDERS:
•
Auto Hold only operates when vehicle is in Drive or Neutral
•
To reduce the risk of an accident, do not activate Auto Hold while driving downhill, backing up or parking your vehicle
•
Do not solely rely on the Auto Hold system to keep the vehicle stopped. Always pay attention to traf fic and road conditions, and be prepared to depress the brakes

that the indicator light is illuminated on the instrument cluster.
If parked on a steep incline/decline, pull up the EPB switch for
more than 3 seconds for a firmer EPB application.
Releasing the Parking Brake
The EPB will automatically release when the shifter is placed in
Reverse or Drive. To release EPB manually, depress the brake
pedal, then press the EPB switch A, with the ignition switch in
the ON position. Ensure that the indicator light is O F F.

•When leaving your keys with parking lot attendants or valet, make sure to inform them how to operate the EPB
•Pull up and hold EPB switch a second time to increase brake pressure if parked on a decline or incline
