Scheduled Charging
(if equipped)
You can set-up a charging sched-ule for your vehicle using the AVN
or BlueLink application.
Refer to the Multimedia manual or
the BlueLink manual for detailed
information about setting sched-
uled charging.
Scheduled charging can only be done when using a normal charger
or the portable charger (ICCB: In-
Cable Control Box). When scheduled charging is set
and the normal charger or the
portable charger (ICCB: In-Cable
Control Box) is connected for
charging, the indicator lamp in the
middle blinks (for 3 minutes) to
indicate that scheduled charging is
set.
When scheduled charging is set, charging is not initiated immediate-
ly when the normal charger or
portable charger (ICCB: In-Cable
Control Box) is connected. When
immediate charging is required,
use the AVN to deactivate the
scheduled charge setting or press
scheduled charging deactivation
( ) button. If you press the scheduled charg-
ing deactivation ( ) button to
immediately charge the battery,
charging must be initiated 3 min-
utes after the charging cable has
been connected.
When you press the scheduled
charging deactivation ( ) button
for immediate charging, the sched-
uled charge setting is not com-
pletely deactivated. If you need to
completely deactivate the sched-
uled charge setting, use the AVN
to finalize the deactivation.
Refer to "Normal Charge or Trickle
Charge" for details about connecting
the normal charger and the portable
charger (ICCB: In-Cable Control Box).

Charging Precautions
Actual charger image and charg-
ing method may vary in accor-
dance with the charger manufac-
turer.
Electromagnetic waves that
are generated from the charg-
er can seriously impact med-
ical electric devices such as
an implantable cardiac pace-
maker.
When using medical electric
devices such as an implantable
cardiac pacemaker, make sure
to ask the medical team and
manufacturer whether charg-
ing your electric vehicle will
impact the operation of the
medical electric devices such
as an implantable cardiac
pacemaker.
Check to make sure there is
no water or dust on the charg-
ing cable connector and plug
before connecting to the
charger and charging inlet.
Connecting while there is
water or dust on the charging
cable connector and plug may
cause a fire or electric shock.
WARNING
Be careful not to touch the
charging connector, charging
plug, and the charging inlet
when connecting the cable to
the charger and the charging
inlet on the vehicle.
Comply with the following in
order to prevent electrical
shock when charging:
- Use a waterproof charger.
- Be careful when touching
the charging connector and
charging plug with your
hands wet, or when standing
in water or snow while con-
necting the charging cable.
- Be careful when there is lightning.
- Be careful when the charg- ing connector and plug is
wet.

Immediately stop charging
when you find abnormal
symptoms (odor, smoke).
Replace the charging cable if
the cable coating is damaged
to prevent electrical shock.
When connecting or removing
the charging cable, make sure
to hold the charging connec-
tor handle and charging plug.
If you pull the cable itself
(without using the handle), the
internal wires may disconnect
or get damaged. This may lead
to electric shock or fire.
WARNING
Always keep the charging con-
nector and charging plug in
clean and dry condition. Be
sure to keep the charging
cable in a condition where
there is no water or moisture.
Make sure to use the designat-
ed charger for charging the
electric vehicle. Using any
other charger may cause fail-
ure.
Before charging the battery,
turn the vehicle OFF.
When the vehicle is switched
OFF while charging, the cool-
ing fan inside the motor com-
partment may automatically
operate. Do not touch the cool-
ing fan while charging.
Be careful not to drop the
charging connector. The
charging connector can be
damaged.
