Isg (Idle Stop And Go) System - Kia Soul 2022 Owner's Manual

Driving your vehicle
down. When you are moving
slowly enough for it to be safe to
do so, pull off the road and stop in
a safe place.
Be cautious when parking on a hill.
Firmly engage the parking brake
and place the shifter dial in P. If
your vehicle is facing downhill,
turn the front wheels into the
curb to help keep the vehicle from
rolling.
If your vehicle is facing uphill, turn
the front wheels away from the
curb to help keep the vehicle from
rolling. If there is no curb or if it is
required by other conditions to
keep the vehicle from rolling,
block the wheels.
Under some conditions your park -
ing brake can freeze in the
engaged position. This is most
likely to happen when there is an
accumulation of snow or ice
around or near the rear brakes or
if the brakes are wet. If there is a
risk that the parking brake may
freeze, apply it only temporarily
while you put the shifter dial in P
and block the rear wheels so the
vehicle cannot roll. Then release
the parking brake.
Do not hold the vehicle on an
incline with the accelerator pedal.
This can cause the reduction gear
to overheat. Always use the brake
pedal or parking brake.

ISG (Idle Stop and Go) system

ISG (Idle Stop and Go) system
Your vehicle may be equipped with
the ISG system, which reduces fuel
consumption by automatically shut -
ting down the engine, when the
vehicle is at a standstill. (For exam -
ple: red light, stop sign and traffic
jam)
The engine starts automatically as
soon as the starting conditions are
met.
The ISG system is ON whenever the
engine is running.
NOTICE
When the engine automatically
starts by the ISG system, some
warning lights (ABS, ESC, ESC OFF,
EPS or Parking brake warning light)
may turn on for a few seconds.
This happens because of low bat -
tery voltage. It does not mean the
system has malfunctioned.
