REMINDERS:
• Current highway speeds and controlled or limited access roads information may vary. Future navigation updates may change this information. See owner’s manual for more information
• When the ignition is cycled, the system returns to its previous state, on or off
Highway Driving Assist is not a substitute for safe driving, may not detect all objects around the vehicle, and only functions on certain federal highways. Always drive safely and use caution. See the Owner’s Manual for more detailed information, limitations and conditions.
Highway Driving Assist (HDA)*†6a
Highway Driving Assist (HDA) is designed to adjust the speed of the vehicle when driving on limited/controlled access
highways. The system can adjust the vehicle’s speed based on available highway speed information. The automatic speed
setting mode is designed to set the speed automatically by adjusting to the current speed limits of the highway vehicle is
travelling on.
To enable HDA, go to User Settings in the Instrument cluster or the Vehicle Settings* in the audio head unit. Go to Driver
Assistance > Driving Assist > Highway Driving Assist.
To activate HDA, turn Smart Cruise Control (SCC) on by pressing the Driving Assist (Cruise) button A on the Steering
Wheel controls.
HDA will operate only when these conditions are met:
• When the SCC speed is set to current highway and controlled/limited access roads
•The vehicle is traveling slower than 110 mph
•
When driving on limited access highways, such as, Interstate, Federal and State freeways
•
When SCC is on and operating
When HDA is activated and the conditions are met, the Instrument Cluster indicator light B will illuminate green. If the
conditions are not met, HDA will be in standby mode and the indicator light B will illuminate white.
When in operation, and if both lanes are recognized, a display C will show the lanes illuminated white and the steering
wheel indicator illuminated green.
If HDA is activated, conditions are met and the SCC speed is set by the driver (at the posted highway speed limit), HDA
will enter the automatic speed setting mode. The set speed and AUTO will be displayed D in green and an audible alert
will sound.

SCC is a supplemental system and is not a substitute for safe driving. It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the speed and distance to the vehicle ahead.
For illustrative purposes only. Your actual display, buttons and/or features may vary.
See section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
Smart Cruise Control (SCC)† 6 a , 21
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) is designed to maintain a predetermined distance from vehicles detected ahead by automatically
adjusting the driving speed as needed. When traffic is detected, the vehicle will slow down to maintain a set distance behind
traffic without depressing the accelerator or brake pedal.
With SCC on and activated and the vehicle distance set, when the system detects a vehicle slowing or stopping, the system can
bring the vehicle to a complete stop. When the vehicle ahead starts to move forward, SCC re-engages. If the vehicle ahead stops for
more than 3 seconds, the accelerator pedal or the RES+ button must be pressed to start moving the vehicle.
To set/adjust the SCC speed:
•Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed
•Press the Driving Assist button A to turn system ON and set speed. The CRUISE
indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster and the set speed will automatically
activate at the vehicle’s current speed
•Press the button B inward to pause/resume the cruise control
•Press the +/- button B up/down to increase/decrease the set speed. The SET indicator
light, set speed and vehicle distance will illuminate on the instrument cluster’s LCD
screen
To set the vehicle distance: Press the Vehicle Distance button C on the steering
wheel. Scroll through the selections and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance image changes
and displays on the Instrument Cluster LCD.
To pause/resume SCC operation: Press the button B to pause or resume Cruise Control.
To turn SCC system OFF: Press the Driving Assist button A. The CRUISE indicator on the
instrument cluster will turn OFF.
To adjust the sensitivity of SCC: Press the mode button D on the Steering Wheel. With the OK
button E, select Drive Assistance, then SCC Response. Then select Fast, Normal or Slow.
To change the cruise control mode from SCC to standard cruise control, press and hold
button C. Repeat to switch back to SCC mode (the SCC system must not be activated
to change modes).

The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) system utilizes
an electric motor to engage the parking brake.
Applying the Parking Brake
Depress the brake pedal and pull up the EPB
switch A. Ensure that the indicator light is
illuminated on the instrument cluster.
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 OFF.
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 trunk must be closed.
The AUTO HOLD indicator on the Instrument
Cluster has four states:
White: Standby – With vehicle in Park and at a
standstill, when the AUTO HOLD button B
is 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. Auto Hold turns off when the ignition is cycled
• 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

Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT)*
Some Kia vehicles are equipped with Dual Clutch
Transmission (DCT ) for automatic transmissions.
The following are unique driving tips for the Dual
Clutch Transmission:
• To hold the vehicle stationary on an incline,
the service brake or parking brake MUST be
used or the gear shift MUST be in the (P) Park
position. If the vehicle is held stationary by
applying the accelerator pedal on a slope, the
clutch/transmission may overheat, resulting in
damage
• Avoid aggressive launches on steep grades
as this may result in an overheated clutch and
transmission
• A slight time lag may be experienced at takeoff
from standstill during aggressive acceleration
maneuvers
If the clutch is overheating, an amber warning
light* will be displayed in the instrument
clu s t er. Should this condition occur, pull over
and place the vehicle in Park and idle the
engine.
Refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for additional information on DCT operation or call Kia Consumer Affairs for additional information.
