front 3. Move the lever down (to SET-),
and release it at the desired
speed. The set speed and vehicle
to vehicle distance on the LDC
screen will illuminate.
4. Release the accelerator pedal. The desired speed will automati-
cally be maintained.
If there is a vehicle in front of you, thespeed may decrease to maintain thedistance to the vehicle ahead.
On a steep grade, the vehicle mayslow down or speed up slightly whilegoing uphill or downhill.

- Slippery road with rain, ice,or snow covered
- Abrupt curved road
- Steep hills
- Windy roads
- Off roads
- Rods under construction
- Rumble strip
- The sensing ability decreas- es if the level of front and
rear vehicle is changed from
the factory.
The advanced smart cruise control system cannot recog-
nize a stopped vehicle, pedes-
trians or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously
to prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occurring.
Use the advanced smart cruise control system only when trav-
eling on open highways in
good weather conditions.

ASCC will be temporarily can-celed when:
Cancelled manually
The advanced smart cruise control is
temporarily canceled when the brake
pedal is depressed or the CANCEL
button is pressed. The speed and
vehicle to vehicle distance indicator
on the cluster is disappeared and the
CRUISE indicator is illuminated con-
tinuously. Cancelled automatically
The driver's door is opened.
The shift lever is shifted to N
(Neutral), R (Reverse) or P(Parking).
The EPB (electronic parking brake) is applied.
The vehicle speed is over 190 km/h (120 mph )
The ESC, ABS or TCS is operat- ing.
The ESC is turned off.
The sensor or the cover is dirty or blocked with foreign matter.
When the vehicle is stopped for over 5 minutes.
The driver starts driving by pushing the lever up (RES +) or down
(SET -) or depressing the acceler-
ator pedal approximately 3 sec-
onds after the vehicle is stopped by
the Advanced Smart Cruise
Control System with no other vehi-
cle ahead or a vehicle stopped far
away in front.
The engine speed is in dangerous range. The ASCC system has malfunc-
tioned.
The accelerator pedal is continu- ously depressed for long time.
Each of these actions will cancel the
ASCC operation. (The set speed
and vehicle-to-vehicle distance on
the LCD display will go off.)
If the ASCC is cancelled automati-
cally, the ASCC will not resume
even though the RES+ or SET-
lever is moved. Also, the EPB (elec-
tronic parking brake) will be applied
when the vehicle is stopped.
- When activating the ISG mode.
- When activating the AEB(Autonomous Emergency Braking)
If the ASCC is cancelled by a reason
not mentioned, have the system
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.

To resume cruise control set
speed:
If any method other than the
CRUISE button was used to cancel
cruising speed and the system is still
activated, the cruising speed will
automatically resume when you
move the lever up/down (to RES+ or
SET-).
If you move the lever up (to RES+),
the speed will resume to the recently
set speed. It will not resume if the
vehicle speed has dropped below
approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).

For example, if you drive at 90 km/h
(56 mph), the distance is maintained
as follows;
Distance 4 - approximately 52.5 m
(172 feet )
Distance 3 - approximately 40 m (130 feet )
Distance 2 - approximately 32.5 m (106 feet )
Distance 1 - approximately 25 m (82 feet )
✽ ✽NOTICE
The advanced smart cruise control
system remember the last vehicle to
vehicle distance which the driver
used in the vehicle with AEB.
The vehicle will maintain the set speed, when the lane ahead is clear.
The vehicle will slow down or speed up within selected speed to maintain
the selected distance, when there is a vehicle ahead of you in the lane. (A
vehicle will appear in front of your vehicle in the LCD display only when
there is an actual vehicle in front of you)

Radar to detect distance to the
vehicle ahead
The sensor detects distance to the
vehicle ahead.
If the sensor is covered with dirt or
other foreign matter, the vehicle to
vehicle distance control may not
operate correctly.
Always keep the sensor clean. Radar check message
If the radar or cover is dirty or
obscured with foreign matter such as
snow, this message will appear and it
will disappear after for a while. In this
case, the system may not function
temporarily, but it does not indicate a
malfunction of the Advanced Smart
Cruise Control System. Clean the
radar or cover by using a soft cloth
and it will operate normally.ASCC (Advanced Smart Cruise
Control) malfunction message
The message will appear when the
vehicle to vehicle distance control
system is not functioning normally.
Take your vehicle to an authorized
Kia dealer and have the system
checked.

Driving your vehicle
Always keep the sensor andbumper clean.
Use only a genuine Kia sensor cover for your vehicle.
Do not install accessories around the sensor and do not replace the
bumper by yourself. It may interfere
with the sensor performance.
Impact damage to the sensor or sensor area may cause the sensor
to move slightly off position and
result in the ASCC not operating
correctly without any warning or
indicator from the cluster. If this
occurs, have your vehicle checked
by an authorized Kia dealer as
soon as possible.To adjust the sensitivity of
Advanced Smart Cruise Control
The sensitivity of vehicle speed when
following the front vehicle to maintain
the set distance can be adjusted. Go
to the User Settings Mode (Driving
Assist) and select SCC (Smart
Cruise Control). You may select one
of the three stages you prefer.
Slow:
Vehicle speed following the front
vehicle to maintain the set distance
is slower than normal speed. Normal:
Vehicle speed following the front
vehicle to maintain the set distance
is normal
Fast: Vehicle speed following the front
vehicle to maintain the set distance
is faster than normal speed.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The system remembers the last
selected mode.
CAUTION - Sensor
Damage
To prevent sensor cover dam-age from occurring, wash thecar with a soft cloth.

To convert to cruise control
mode:
The driver may choose to only use
the cruise control mode (speed con-
trol function) by doing as follows: 1.Turn the ASCC on (the cruise indi-
cator 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 (SCC) mode" and "Cruise
control (CC) mode".
When using the cruise control mode,
you must manually assess the dis-
tance to other vehicles as the system
will not automatically brake to slow
down for other vehicles.
Limitations of the system
The ASCC may have limits to its abil-
ity to detect distance to the vehicle
ahead due to road and traffic condi-
tions.

Driving your vehicle
- After an engine start, please stopfor several seconds. If system ini-
tialization is not completed, the
ASCC does not normally operate.
- After an engine start, if any objects are not detected or the sensor
cover is obscured with foreign sub-
stances, there is a possibility that
the ASCC system may not work.
- The following conditions may cause a malfunction: over-loading
the trunk, suspension modification,
tire replacement with unauthorized
tires or tires with different tread
wear and pressure levels. This device complies with
Industry Canada licence-exempt
RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following
three conditions:
(1) This device may not cause inter-
ference, and
(2) This device must accept any
interference, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
(3) Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to oper-
ate the device.
WARNING - Inclines &
Towing
Do not use ASCC on steep
inclines or when towing another
vehicle or trailer since such
extreme loading can interfere
with your vehicle's ability to
maintain the selected speed.

again. When Active ECO is activated:
The acceleration may slightly be
reduced even though you depress
the accelerator fully.
The air conditioner performance may be limited
The shift pattern of the automatic transaxle may change.
The engine noise may get louder.
The above situations are normal
conditions when the Active Eco
System is activated to improve fuel
efficiency. Limitation of Active ECO opera-
tion:
If the following conditions occur while
Active ECO is operating, the system
operation is limited even though
there is no change in the ECO indi-
cator.
When the coolant temperature is
low:
The system will be limited until
engine performance becomes nor-
mal.
When driving up a hill: The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because
the engine torque is restricted.
When using manual mode: The system will be limited accord-
ing to the shift location.
When the accelerator pedal is deeply depressed for a few sec-
onds:
The system will be limited, judging
that the driver wants to speed up.
