Kia Stinger: Smart cruise control with stop & go system / Speed setting (Smart cruise control system)

To set Smart Cruise Control Speed

1. Press the CRUISE button, to turn the system on. The CRUISE indicator in the instrument cluster will illuminate.

2. Accelerate to the desired speed.

• 30 km/h (20 mph) ~ 200 km/h (120 mph) : when there is no vehicle in front
• 0 km/h (0 mph) ~ 200 km/h (120 mph) : when there is a vehicle in 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 LCD screen will illuminate.

4. Release the accelerator pedal. The desired speed will automatically be maintained.

If there is a vehicle in front of you, the speed may decrease to maintain the distance to the vehicle ahead.

On a steep grade, the vehicle may slow down or speed up slightly while going uphill or downhill.

Vehicle speed may decrease on an upward slope and increase on a ownward slope.

The speed will be set to 30km/h when there is a vehicle ahead and your vehicle speed is 0~30km/h.

To increase cruise control set speed

Follow either of these procedures:

• Move the lever up (to RES+), and hold it. Your vehicle set speed will increase by 10 km/h (5 mph). Release the lever at the speed you want.
• Move the lever up (to RES+), and release it immediately. The cruising speed will increase by 1.0 km/h (1 mph) each time you move the lever up (to RES+) in this manner.
• Smart cruise control system will operate to a maximum setting of 200 km/h (120 mph). However all local speed limit laws must be followed.

To decrease the cruise control set speed

Follow either of these procedures:

• Move the lever down (to SET-), and hold it. Your vehicle set speed will decrease by 10 km/h (5 mph). Release the lever at the speed you want.
• Move the lever down (to SET-), and release it immediately. The cruising speed will decrease by 1.0 km/h (1 mph) each time you move the lever down (to SET-) in this manner.
• You can set the cruise control to above 30 km/h (20 mph).

To temporarily accelerate with the cruise control on:

If you want to speed up temporarily when the cruise control is on, depress the accelerator pedal. Increased speed will not interfere with cruise control operation or change the set speed.

To return to the set speed, take your foot off the accelerator.

If you move the lever down (to SET-) at increased speed, the cruising speed will be set again.

NOTICE

Be careful when accelerating temporarily, because the speed is not regulated automatically at this time even if there is a vehicle in front of you.

Smart cruise control system will be temporarily canceled when:

Cancelled manually

The smart cruise control system 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 will disappear and the CRUISE indicator is illuminated continuously.

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 210 km/h (130 mph)
• The ESC, ABS or TCS is operating.
• 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 accelerator pedal approximately 3 seconds after the vehicle is stopped by the smart cruise control system with no other vehicle ahead or a vehicle stopped far away in front.
• The engine speed is in a dangerous range.
• The smart cruise control system has malfunctioned.
• The accelerator pedal is continuously depressed for long time.
• When activating the ISG mode.
• When the braking control is operated for Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist(FCA)
• The vehicle stops and goes repeatedly for a long period of time.
• When the parking brake is locked.
• Engine has some problems.
  Each of these actions will cancel the smart cruise control system operation. (The set speed and vehicle-tovehicle distance on the LCD display will go off.)
  If the smart cruise control system is cancelled automatically, the smart cruise control system will not resume even though the RES+ or SET- lever is moved.

If the smart cruise control system is canceled during a scenario that is not discussed in the preceding "Cancelled automatically" section, have the system checked by an authorized Kia dealer.

✽ NOTICE

If the system is automatically cancelled, the warning chime will sound and a message will appear for a few seconds. You must adjust the vehicle speed by depressing the accelerator or brake pedal according to the road and driving conditions ahead. Always check the road conditions. Do not rely on the warning chime.

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 only resume below approximately 30 km/h (20 mph) when a vehicle is in the front.

WARNING - Following Distance

• To avoid collisions, always be aware of the selected speed and vehicle to vehicle distance settings when activating your smart cruise control system.
• Always maintain sufficient braking distance and decelerate your vehicle by applying the brakes if necessary.

To turn cruise control off

Press the CRUISE button. (the CRUISE indicator in the instrument cluster will go off).

When the Smart Cruise Control System is not needed, press the [CRUISE] switch and deactivate the system.
