Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)†8
HAC is designed to help prevent the vehicle from rolling backward when
accelerating from a stop while on a steep incline.
The HAC automatically activates whether the ESC is OFF or ON but does
NOT activate when the ESC has malfunctioned.
REMINDERS:
•
The HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or the N (Neutral) position
•
HAC does not replace the need to apply brakes while the vehicle is stopped on an incline
•In the event of HAC system malfunction, see an Authorized Kia Dealer for service
•
•When HAC is active (e.g., during initial acceleration from a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes will momentarily remain engaged after you depress the accelerator – this is normal operation
•HAC provides a two-second delay before the vehicle may start rolling backward

Smart Cruise Control (SCC) is designed to maintain a speed and 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, the vehicle distance set, and 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 SCC speed:
•Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed
•Press the Driving Assist CRUISE button A to turn system ON. The CRUISE indicator
will illuminate on the instrument cluster
•Press SET- button B down to set speed. The SET indicator light will illuminate.
The set speed and vehicle distance will illuminate on the LCD screen
•Press button B up or down to adjust the set speed
To set the vehicle distance C: Press the Vehicle Distance button D on the steering
wheel. The image on the LCD screen E will change when scrolling through the settings.
Each time the button is pressed, the vehicle distance changes E.
To cancel SCC operation: Press button B or press the brake pedal. The LCD screen will
display a message that the SCC operation is canceled.
To turn SCC OFF: Press the Driving Assist CRUISE button A. The CRUISE indicator on
the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
To adjust the sensitivity of SCC (if equipped): Press the Mode/Menu button F on
the Steering Wheel. When in User Settings, select Driver Assistance, then SCC Reaction.
