NOTICE
Accordance to the hybrid system
gauge area the “EV” indicator
comes on or off.
- “EV” indicator ON : Vehicle is
driven using the electric motor or
the gasoline engine is stopped.
- “EV” indicator OFF : Vehicle is driven using the gasoline engine.
Hybrid Battery SOC
(State of Charge) Gauge
This gauge indicates the remaining
hybrid battery power. If the SOC is
near the “L (Low)” level, the vehicle
automatically operates the engine to
charge the battery.
However, if the Service Indicator ( )
and Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
( ) turn on when the SOC gauge is
near the “L (Low)” level, have your
vehicle inspected by an authorized
Kia dealer.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Never try to start the vehicle if the
fuel tank is empty. In this condition,
the engine cannot charge the high
voltage battery of the hybrid system.
If you try to start the vehicle when
the fuel is empty, the high voltage
battery will become discharged and
be damaged.

Distance to empty
Distance To Empty (1)
The distance to empty is the esti-
mated distance the vehicle can be
driven with the remaining fuel.
- Distance range: 1~9,999 km or1~9,999 mi.
If the estimated distance is below 1 mi.(1 km), the trip computer will
display “----” as distance to empty. If the level of the remaining fuel is
more than three-quarters, more
than 3 liters of fuel must be refilled
for the fuel gauge to change. In
other cases, more than 6 liters of
fuel must be refilled for the vehicle
to change the fuel gauge.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• If the vehicle is not on level ground
or the battery power has been
interrupted, the distance to empty
function may not operate correct-
ly.
• The distance to empty may differ from the actual driving distance as
it is an estimate of the available
driving distance.
• The fuel economy and distance to empty may vary significantly
based on driving conditions, driv-
ing habits, and condition of the
vehicle.
