Although Smart Cruise Control will
operate to a maximum setting of up
to 110 mph (180km/h), all local
speed limit laws must always be
followed.To decrease Smart Cruise Control
set speed:
Follow either of these procedures:
Push the switch down (to SET-), and hold it. Your vehicle set speed will
decrease by 5 mph (10 km/h).
Release the switch at the speed
you want.
Push the switch down (to SET-), and release it immediately. The
cruising speed will decrease by 1.0
mph (1.0 km/h) each time you
move the switch down (to SET-) in
this manner.
You can set the speed to 20 mph (30 km/h).
To temporarily accelerate with
Smart Cruise Control on :
If you want to speed up temporarily
when Cruise Control is on, depress
the accelerator pedal. Increased
speed will not interfere with Smart
Cruise Control operation or change
the set speed.
To return to the set speed, take your
foot off the accelerator.
If you move the switch down (to SET-)
at increased speed, the cruising
speed will be set again.
WARNING
Check driving conditions before
using the switch as driving
speed increases rapidly when
you push up and hold the
switch.

WARNING
Be careful when accelerating
temporarily, because the speed
is not controlled automatically
at this time even if there is a
vehicle in front of you.

Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control operating
If temporary deceleration is required
in the standby state and Navigation-
based Smart Cruise Control is oper-
ating, the green ( ) symbol will
illuminate on the cluster.
If the Set Speed Auto Change func-
tion operates, the green ( )sym-
bol and green set speed will illumi-
nate on the cluster, and an audible
alarm will sound.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Highway Auto Curve Slowdown and
Set Speed Auto Change function
uses the same ( ) symbol.
Highway Auto Curve Slowdown
Depending on the curve ahead on
the highway (or motorway), the
vehicle will decelerate, and after
passing the curve, the vehicle will
accelerate to Smart Cruise Control
set speed.
Vehicle deceleration time may dif- fer depending on the vehicle speed
and the degree of the curve on the
road. The higher the driving speed,
the faster the vehicle will deceler-
ate. Limitations of Navigation-based
Smart Cruise Control
Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control may not operate normally
under the following circumstances:
The navigation is not working prop-
erly.
The navigation is not updated to include the latest information about
road curvature and changes.
Speed limit and road information in the navigation is not updated
The map information and the actu- al road is different because of real-
time GPS data or map information
error
The navigation searches for a route while driving
GPS signals are blocked in areas such as a tunnel
A road that divides into two or more roads and joins again
The driver goes off course the route set in the navigation
The route to the destination is changed or canceled by resetting
the navigation (including TPEG
change)

Driving your vehicle
After you pass through a tollgateon a highway, Navigation-based
Smart Cruise Control operates
based on the first lane. If you enter
one of the other lanes, the function
might not properly decelerate.
The vehicle will accelerate if the driver depresses the accelerate
pedal while Navigation-based
Smart Cruise Control is operating,
and function will not decelerate the
vehicle. If not depressing the accel-
erator pedal sufficiently, the vehicle
speed may decrease.
If the driver accelerates and releases the accelerator pedal
while the Navigation-based Smart
Cruise Control is operating, the
vehicle may not decelerate suffi-
ciently or may rapidly decelerate to
a safe speed.
If the curve is too large or too small, Navigation-based Smart
Cruise Control may not operate.✽ ✽ NOTICE
• When the function is activated, the
vehicle decelerates automatically
before reaching the curved road
according to its curvature, and the
driving speed returns to the speed
set by Smart Cruise Control after
passing the curved section.
• The speed information on the clus- ter and navigation may differ
• The time gap could occur between the navigation's guidance and
when Navigation-based Smart
Cruise Control operation starts
and ends.
• Even if you are driving at a speed lower than Smart Cruise Control
set speed, acceleration may be lim-
ited by the speeding cameras and
curve sections ahead.
• If Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control is operating while leaving
the main road to enter an inter-
change, junction, rest area, etc.,
the function may operate for a cer-
tain period of time.
• Deceleration by Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control may not be
sufficient due to road conditions
such as uneven road surfaces, nar-
row lanes, etc.

Lane Following Assist mal-
function
The warning message popped up
(turned off after a certain period of
time)means a problem with Lane
Following Assist. If this occurs, we
recommend that the function be
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
Limitation of Lane Following
Assist
If the driver turns on the turn signal
light or the emergency warning
light to change the lane
- Operate the turn signal lightswitch before changing the lane
- If you change the lane without operating the turn signal lights,
steering reaction force of the
wheel may occur.
Once Lane Following Assist is turned on or the lane is changed,
the vehicle should be in the center
of the road to switch to the steering
assist mode. If the driver keeps
driving along the lane, Lane
Following Assist will not assist the
steering.
When the ESC or VSM is activat- ed, the function does not assist
steering.
When driving on a curved road at a high speed, steering assist mode
may not work.
When driving at a speed faster than 110 mph (180 km/h), steering
assist mode may not work.
CAUTION
It is the driver’s responsibility to operate the steering wheelwhile driving.
With Lane Following Assist on, the driver can steer thevehicle by operating the wheelon his own.
We recommend that the driver turns off Lane FollowingAssist and operates the steer-ing wheel by himself in the fol-lowing cases
- bad weather- bad road conditions- when frequent operation of the steering wheel is required
- when towing other vehicle or trailers
The steering wheel can feel heavy or light if LaneFollowing Assist is assistingthe steering.

When the hands-off warning
lasts for a certain period of
time
If the driver still does not have their
hands on the steering wheel after the
message "Keep hands on steering
wheel", Highway Driving Assist will
be canceled. However, if Smart
Cruise Control is reactivated manu-
ally by the driver, Highway Driving
Assist will reactivate.
To activate Smart Cruise control
refer to "Smart Cruise Control
(SCC)" in this chapter. Highway Driving Assist will not be in
the ENABLED state and/or the steer-
ing wheel will not be assisted when:
The turn signal is turned on before
changing a lane. If you change
lanes without the turn signal on,
the steering wheel might be con-
trolled.
The vehicle is not driven in the mid- dle of the lane when the function is
turned on or right after changing a
lane.
ESC (Electronic Stability Control or VSM (Vehicle Stability
Management) is activated.
The vehicle is driven on a sharp curve.
Vehicle speed is over 95 mph (153 km/h)
The vehicle makes sharp lane changes.
CAUTION
The hands-off warning may be delayed depending on roadconditions. Always keep yourhands on the steering wheelwhile driving.
If you hold the steering wheel lightly, it may be perceivedthat the steering wheel is notheld at all and trigger thehands-off warning.
