(Continued)
Do not damage the sensor or
sensor area by a strong
impact. If the sensor moves
slightly off position, Smart
Cruise Control will not operate
correctly without any warning
or indicator from the cluster.
If this occurs, have your vehi-
cle checked by an authorized
Kia dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
Use only a genuine Kia sensor
cover for your vehicle. Do not
paint anything on the sensor
cover.
If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around
the radar sensor, Smart Cruise
Control may not operate prop-
erly.

Driving your vehicle
1. Turn Smart Cruise Control on (the
cruise indicator light will be on but
the system will not be activated).
2. Push the distance to distance
switch for more than 2 seconds.
3. Choose between "Smart Cruise
Control" and "Cruise Control".
When the system is canceled using
the CRUISE button or the CRUISE
button is used after the engine is
turned on, the Smart Cruise Control
mode will turn on.Limitations of the system
Smart Cruise Control may have lim-
its to its ability to detect distance to
the vehicle ahead due to road and
traffic conditions.
On curves
On curves, Smart Cruise Control
may not detect a moving vehicle in
your lane, and then your vehicle
could accelerate to the set speed.
Also, the vehicle speed will rapidly
down when the vehicle ahead is
recognized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed
on curves and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road condition ahead and driving
condition.WARNING
When using the cruise control
mode, you must manually
adjust the distance to other
vehicles as the system will not
automatically brake to slow
down for other vehicles.

Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane. Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal
according to the road condition
ahead and driving condition. Apply
the accelerator pedal and select
the appropriate set speed. Check
to be sure that the road conditions
permit safe operation of the smart
cruise control.
On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving,
Smart Cruise Control may not
detect a moving vehicle in your
lane, and cause your vehicle to
accelerate to the set speed. Also,
the vehicle speed will rapidly down
when the vehicle ahead is recog-
nized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed
on inclines and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road condition ahead and driving
condition.
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into your
lane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The sensor may not detect imme-
diately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is slower than your vehicle,
your speed may decrease to main-
tain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.

Driving your vehicle
If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is faster than your vehicle,
your vehicle will accelerate to the
selected speed.
Your vehicle may accelerate when
a vehicle ahead of you disappears.
When you are warned that the
vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution.Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles ahead in your lane
cannot be recognized by the sensor
as follows:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcy-
cles or bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden-
decelerating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profiles
such as trailers with no loads

A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing
upwards due to overloading in the
liftgate (tailgate)
- While making turns by steering
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on
curves
Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal accord-
ing to the road condition ahead and
driving condition. When vehicles are at a standstill
and the vehicle in front of you
changes to the next lane, be care-
ful when your vehicle starts to
move because it may not recognize
the stopped vehicle in front of you.
In this case, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance. Always look out for pedestrians
when your vehicle is maintaining a
distance with the vehicle ahead.

Driving your vehicle
Always be cautious for vehicles
with higher height or vehicles car-
rying loads that sticks out to the
back of the vehicle.
WARNING
When using Smart Cruise
Control take the following pre-
cautions:
If an emergency stop is nec-
essary, you must apply the
brakes. The vehicle cannot be
stopped at every emergency
situation by using Smart
Cruise Control.
Keep a safe distance accord-
ing to road conditions and
vehicle speed. If the headway
is too close during a high-
speed driving, a serious colli-
sion may result.
Always maintain sufficient
braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying
the brakes if necessary.
Smart Cruise Control cannot
recognize a stopped vehicle,
pedestrians or an oncoming
vehicle. Always look ahead
cautiously to prevent unex-
pected and sudden situations
from occurring.

(Continued)
Vehicles moving in front of
you with a frequent lane
change may cause a delay in
the system's reaction or may
cause the system to react to a
vehicle actually in an adjacent
lane.
Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring.
Always be aware of the select-
ed speed and headway. The
driver should not solely rely
on the system but always pay
attention to driving conditions
and control your vehicle
speed.
Smart Cruise Control may not
recognize complex driving sit-
uations so always pay atten-
tion to driving conditions and
control your vehicle speed.

NOTICE
• Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control is limited in other coun-
tries.
• The system may not operate due to
the existence of leading vehicles
and the driving situations of the
vehicle.
• The system operates regardless of
whether the sharp curve warning
appears on the navigation, but the
time gap could occur between the
warning and system operation.
• The navigation only provides
curve information within permit-
ted speed ranges so that the system
may not decrease its speed during
extreme over speed driving.
• The system is not designed to work
on highways other than mentioned
as a controlled access road.
• The system automatically cancels
when you leave the highway
