Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

/ Traction Control System (TCS)

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is designed to help stabilize the vehicle
during certain cornering maneuvers. Traction Control System (TCS) can help
improve traction. It is a good idea to keep both ESC and TCS turned on
for daily driving whenever possible.

To turn both Electronic Stability Control and Traction Control System OFF, press
and hold the ESC button for more than 3 seconds. Press again to turn ON.
Hill-start Assist Control (HAC)

Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) is designed to prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards when accelerating from
a stop while on a steep incline.
HAC automatically activates whether ESC is OFF or ON but does NOT activate when ESC has
malfunctioned.
REMINDERS:
§ HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in P (Park) or N (Neutral)
position
§ HAC does not replace the need to apply brakes while the vehicle is
stopped on an incline
§ In the event of HAC system malfunction, see an Authorized Kia
Dealer for service

a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes
