Kia Rio: Driving your vehicle / Cruise Control system
The cruise control system allows you to program the vehicle to maintain a constant
speed without depressing the accelerator pedal.
This system is designed to function above approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).
If the cruise control system is left on (CRUISE indicator light in the instrument
cluster illuminated), the cruise control can be switched on accidentally. Keep the
cruise control system off (CRUISE indicator light OFF) when the cruise control is
not in use, to avoid inadvertently setting a speed.
Use the cruise control system only when traveling on open highways in good weather.
Do not use the cruise control when driving in heavy or varying traffic, or on
slipper (rainy, icy, or snow-covered) or winding roads, or on roads with an over
6% up-hill or down-hill grade.
✽ NOTICE
- During normal cruise control operation, when the SET switch is activated
or reactivated after applying the brakes, the cruise control will energize after
approximately 3 seconds. This delay is normal.
- To activate cruise control, depress the brake pedal at least once after
turning the ignition switch to the ON position or starting the engine.
WARNING - Misuse of Cruise Control
Do not use cruise control if the traffic situation does not allow you to drive
safely at a constant speed and with sufficient distance to the vehicle in front.
