Idle, Stop and Go (ISG) System
The ISG system is designed to reduce fuel consumption by automatically
shutting down the engine when the vehicle is at a standstill.
When the ISG system is ON and the vehicle is at a standstill the engine will
stop, and the green AUTO STOP indicator A on the instrument cluster will
illuminate.
The engine will restart when the brake pedal is released or the shift lever is
moved from D (Drive) to the R (Reverse) position or to Manual Shift mode*.
When the engine restarts, the green AUTO STOP indicator on the instrument
cluster will turn off.
To deactivate the ISG System, press the ISG OFF button B. If you press again,
the system will be activated.
For more information on Idle, Stop and Go System, refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual or contact your local dealership.
REMINDERS:
§ ISG is active by default at vehicle start- up. When ignition is cycled, ISG will turn ON again
§ Under certain conditions, the engine will restart automatically even if the brake pedal is still depressed
§ If the AUTO STOP indicator is continuously blinking yellow and the ISG button LED is on, please contact an authorized Kia dealer
