When the Kia EV6 is in DRIVE READY mode, tap Setup > Vehicle > Driver Assistance > Driving Convenience on the infotainment system screen to set the available options for each related function.

If Highway Lane Change Assist is selected, the function can help the Kia EV6 change lanes more smoothly and safely when all required conditions are satisfied.

WARNING

For your safety, change these settings only after parking the Kia EV6 in a safe location.

CAUTION

When using a Kia genuine Trailer Kit and the connector is plugged into your vehicle, Highway Driving Assist automatically turns OFF. In this condition, Highway Driving Assist will not provide assistance, so pay extra attention while driving. A Kia genuine Trailer Kit can determine whether a trailer is connected to the Kia EV6.

NOTE

To use Highway Lane Change Assist, Highway Driving Assist must first be active.

If there is a problem with these functions, the settings may not be changed. Have the function inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.

If the Kia EV6 is restarted, the functions maintain the most recent setting that was previously selected.
