How to Use the Smart Activation System of the Kia EV 3

Video tutorial

Let’s see how to use the intelligent regeneration system on the Kia EV3. This is an advanced regenerative braking system that not only recovers energy but manages it intelligently based on driving conditions to improve efficiency, comfort, and safety.

It partially automates deceleration, maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle in front, decelerating when necessary; it keeps an appropriate and constant speed during downhill driving without needing to use the brake continuously; if the vehicle ahead comes to a complete stop, it also stops the car while maintaining a safe distance.

Activation is very simple. Pull the right joystick selector (the one used to select gears) towards you, and an icon will inform you of successful activation.

To deactivate it, pull towards you and hold the same joystick for a few seconds.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
