ISG system malfunction
The system may not operate when:
The ISG related sensors or system error occurs.
The following will happen:
-
The yellow AUTO STOP (
) indicator on the instrument cluster will stay on after blinking for 5 seconds.
-
The light on the ISG OFF button will illuminate.
If the ISG OFF button light is not turned off by pressing the ISG OFF button again or if the ISG system continuously does not work correctly, have your vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
When the engine is in Idle Stop mode, it's possible to restart the engine without the driver taking any action.
Before leaving the car or doing anything in the engine room area, stop the engine by turning the ENGINE START/STOP button to the OFF position.
If the AGM battery is reconnected or replaced, ISG function will not operate immediately.
If you want to use the ISG function, the battery sensor needs to be calibrated for approximately 4 hours with the ignition off and then, turn the engine on and off 2 or 3 times.
