9. Check if the charge indicator lampof the high voltage battery in the
instrument cluster is turned ON.
Charging is not done when the
charging indicator lamp is OFF.
When the charging connector is
not connected properly, reconnect
the charging cable to charge. You can start charging when the
Power button is in the OFF posi-
tion and the shift lever is in P
(Park). After charging has started,
you can use electrical compo-
nents such as the radio by press-
ing the Power button to the ACC or
ON position.
If you move the shift lever from P (Park) to R (Rear), N (Neutral), D
(Drive), charging stops immedi-
ately. If you want to start charging
again, place the shift lever to P
(Park) and press the Power button
to the OFF position. Unplug and
reconnect the charging cable to
start charging again. 10.After charging has started, the
estimated charging time is dis-
played on the instrument cluster
for about 1 minute.
If you open the driver seat door
while charging, the estimated
charging time is also displayed on
the instrument cluster for about 1
minute.
When reserved charging is set,
the estimated charging time is
displayed as “--" .

On average, a vehicle can drive
about 148km (93miles) when the
high voltage battery is 100%
charged.
Under certain circumstances where
the air conditioner/heater is ON, the
distance to empty is impacted,
resulting in a possible distance range
from 100~230km. (62~143mi). When
using the heater during cold weather
or driving at high speed, the high
voltage battery consumes a lot more
electricity. This may reduce the dis-
tance to empty significantly.After “---” has been displayed, the vehi-
cle can drive an additional 4 ~ 8 km.
(2.5 ~ 5.0 mi) (depending on driving
speed, heater/air conditioner, weather,
driving style, and other factors).
Distance to empty that is displayed
on the instrument cluster after com-
pleting a recharge may vary signifi-
cantly depending on previous operat-
ing patterns.
When previous driving patterns
include high speed driving, resulting
in the driving battery using more
electricity than usual, the estimated
distance to empty is reduced. When
the high voltage battery uses a little
electricity in ECO mode, the estimat-
ed distance to empty increases.
Distance to empty may depend on
many factors such as the charge
amount of the high voltage battery,
weather, temperature, durability of
the battery, geographical features,
and driving style.
Natural degradation may occur with
the high voltage battery depending
on the number of years the vehicle is
used. This may reduce the distance
to empty.

■ ■Low Battery
When the high voltage battery level
reaches below 20%, this warning
message illuminates.
In this case, the warning lamp on the
instrument cluster ( ) turns ON
simultaneously.
Charge the high voltage battery
immediately.
■ ■Low Battery. Charge imme-
diately
When the high voltage battery level
reaches below 10%, this warning
message illuminates .
In this case, the warning lamp on the
instrument cluster ( ) turns ON
simultaneously and the distance to
empty gauge will be displayed as “---”.
Charge the high voltage battery
immediately.
■ ■Charge immediately. Power
limited
When the high voltage battery level
reaches below 7%, this warning
message illuminates.
In this case, the warning lamp on the
instrument cluster ( ) and the
power down warning lamp ( )turn
ON simultaneously and the distance
to empty gauge will be displayed as
“---”.
The vehicle’s power will be reduced
to minimize the energy consumption
of the high voltage battery. Charge
the battery immediately.

■ ■Power limited
In the following cases, this warning
message illuminates when the vehi-
cle’s power is limited for the safety.
– When the high voltage battery is
below a certain level, or voltage is
decreasing.
– When the temperature of the motor or high voltage battery is
too high or too low.
– When there is a problem with the cooling system or a failure that
may interrupt normal driving. When this warning messages is
displayed, do not accelerate or
start the vehicle suddenly.
Charge the battery immediately when the high voltage battery
level is not enough.
■ ■Unplug vehicle to start
When the vehicle is started while the
charging connector is connected,
this warning message illuminates.
Remove the charging connector and
start the vehicle.
