Kia EV2: Smart Cruise Control operation / Turning on Smart Cruise Control
|
Press the Driving Assist button located on your steering wheel to turn Smart Cruise Control ON and seamlessly engage the system. Your target cruising speed is immediately established and synchronized to your exact real-time velocity displayed on the instrument cluster.
-
If the roadway ahead remains completely clear of slower traffic, the Kia EV2 maintains your chosen cruising velocity with high precision.
-
If a leading vehicle is detected in your lane, the system dynamically modulates your speed to preserve an optimal distance gap. Should the preceding vehicle accelerate away, your Kia EV2 will automatically scale up speed to match your previously configured cruising limit and maintain steady travel.
TIP
-
If your Kia EV2 is traveling at a low crawl between 0–30 km/h (0–20 mph) when you press the Driving Assist button, the baseline Smart Cruise Control operating speed is automatically initialized at 30 km/h (20 mph).
-
Pressing and holding the steering wheel Driving Assist button instantly initiates Manual Speed Limit Assist instead of standard cruise functions.

Blind Spot Mirrors
If equipped, there is a small convex mirror built into the upper and outer corner of the driver outside mirror. It can show objects that may be in the vehicle's blind zone.
Driving with the Blind Spot Mirror
Actual Mirror View
When the approaching vehicle is a long distance away, the image in the main mirror is small and near the inboard edge of the mirror. As the vehicle gets closer, the image in the main mirror gets larger and moves outboard. As the vehicle enters the blind zone, the image transitions from the main mirror to the blind spot mirror. When the vehicle is in the blind zone, the image only appears in the blind spot mirror.
