Kia Carens: Driving your vehicle / ISG (Idle Stop and Go) system
Your vehicle may be equipped with the ISG system, which reduces fuel consumption
by automatically shutting down the engine, when the vehicle is at a standstill.
(For example : 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

malfunctioned.
To start the diesel engine when the engine is cold, it has to be pre-heated before
starting the engine and then have to be warmed up before starting to drive.
