Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control operating

While the system is actively controlling vehicle speed based on navigation information, the green (Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control active indicator) indicator flashes to show that Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control is currently working.

Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control pause/driver operation

If Smart Cruise Control is temporarily unavailable because it has been canceled, the navigation route is being recalculated, or another operating condition has interrupted the function, the gray (Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control paused indicator) indicator appears on the instrument cluster.

If you press the accelerator pedal while the system is active, the white (Driver override indicator for Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control) indicator flashes to indicate that the driver is temporarily overriding the automatic speed control.

WARNING

If Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control determines that it cannot reduce the Kia Telluride to an appropriate speed for upcoming road conditions, a warning message is displayed to prompt the driver to take immediate control of the vehicle.

TIP

The appearance, colors, and graphics shown on the Kia Telluride instrument cluster may differ depending on the cluster version, selected display theme, or vehicle specification.

Highway Curve Zone Auto Slowdown

When the Kia Telluride approaches a highway curve, Highway Curve Zone Auto Slowdown uses navigation information to automatically reduce vehicle speed when appropriate. After the curve has been safely negotiated, the system smoothly accelerates the vehicle back to the Smart Cruise Control set speed.

TIP

The point at which automatic deceleration begins varies according to vehicle speed and the severity of the upcoming curve. Higher driving speeds and sharper curves generally cause the system to begin reducing speed earlier.
