Hi. I was hoping to use Auto Stop and ISG/Stop/Go together on my 2018 Sportage Auto but I can's even find out how to turn the stop/go on. Any help gratefully received - I can't find it in the handbook?....

Idle Stop and Go (ISG) is activated as soon as you start the car, you don't turn it on. However you can turn it off using the switch located to the left below the binnacle. Kia ISG is very spasmodic, especially on diesel cars and is dependent on numerous factors, the main factor being battery condition. There are numerous threads on the forum about ISG.
It rarely works on my car and frankly I don't worry about it.

To me the binnacle is the place where the speedometer/rev counter etc. is. The switch:-

Is it the same symbol?

I'm a bit puzzled by this. I know some of the earlier Sportage's didn't have ISG, our previous 2017 Sportage CRDi 2.0 litre KX-2 didn't have it, but I thought it was standard on all the Sportage's after 2018 facelift. ??

The ISG was only present on specific models with the 2017 specification (see cropped image), maybe this continued into 2018 before the facelift happened.
