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 CRUISE button A to turn system ON The CRUISE indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster
•Press S E T- 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 CRUISE button A The CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF

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 cluster 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 Refer to the inside front cover for more information on QR codes www youtube com/KiaFeatureVideos
