2018 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid light

F6
Introduction
NOTICE indicates a situation
which, if not avoided, could result
in vehicle damage.
Unleaded
For Europe
For the optimal vehicle performance,
we recommend you use unleaded
gasoline which has an octane rating of
RON (Research Octane Number) 95 /
AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher.
You may use unleaded gasoline with
an octane rating of RON 91-94 / AKI
87-90 but it may result in slight per-
formance reduction of the vehicle. (Do
not use methanol blended fuels)
Except Europe
Your new vehicle is designed to use
only unleaded fuel having an Octane
Rating of RON (Research Octane
Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-Knock Index)
87 or higher. (Do not use methanol
blended fuels)
Your new vehicle is designed to
obtain maximum performance with
UNLEADED FUEL, as well as mini-
mize exhaust emissions and spark
plug fouling.NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The
use of leaded fuel is detrimental to
the catalytic converter and will
damage the engine control sys-
tem’s oxygen sensor and affect
emission control.
Never add any fuel system clean-
ing agents to the fuel tank other
than what has been specified (We
recommend that you consult an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
details.)
NOTICE
NOTICE
•Do not "top off" after the noz-
zle automatically shuts off
when refueling.
•Always check that the fuel cap
is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the event
of an accident.
WARNING
CAUTION indicates a hazardous
situation which, if not avoided,
could result in minor or moder-
ate injury.

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.

■ Normal Charger
CHARGING THE PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLE (CONT.)

H127. Check if the charging indicator
light of the high voltage battery on
the instrument cluster is turned
ON. Charging is not done when
the charging indicator lamp is
OFF.
When the charging connector and
charging plug are not connected
properly, reconnect the charging
cable to charge.
Information
• Even though charging is possible
with the ignition switch in the
ON/START position, for your safe-
ty, start charging when the ignition
switch is in the LOCK/OFF position
and the vehicle shifted to P (Park).
After charging has started, you can
use electrical components such as
the radio by placing the ignition
switch in the ACC or ON position.
• During normal charging, the radio
reception may be bad.
• Moving the shift lever from P (Park)
to R (Reverse)/N(Neutral)/D (Drive)
stops the charging process.
To restart the charging process,
move the shift lever to P (Park),
place the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position, and discon-
nect the charging cable. Then, con-
nect the charging cable.8. After charging has started, the esti-
mated charging time is displayed 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 instru-
ment cluster for about 1 minute.
When scheduled charging is set, the
estimated charging time is displayed
as “--" .
Information
Depending on the condition and dura-
bility of the high voltage battery,
charger specifications, and ambient
temperature, the time required for
charging the battery may vary.

Information
Charging connector AUTO/LOCK
mode
The charging connector is locked in
the inlet at a different period accord-
ing to which mode is selected.
• LOCK mode : The connector locks
when the charging connector is
plugged into the charging inlet.
• AUTO mode : The connector locks
when charging starts.
For more details, refer to “Charging
Connector AUTO/ LOCK Mode” in
this chapter.8. Charging starts automatically
(charging lamp blinks).9. Check if the charging indicator
light of the high voltage battery on
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 it
again.

Precautions for Portable
Charger (ICCB: In-Cable Control
Box)
• Use the portable charger that is
certified by HYUNDAI Motors.
• Do not try to repair, disassemble,
or adjust the portable charger.
• Do not use an extension cord or
adapter.
• Stop using immediately when fail-
ure occurs.
• Do not touch the plug and charging
connector with wet hands.
• Do not touch the terminal part of
the normal charging connector and
the normal charging inlet on the
vehicle.
• Do not connect the charging con-
nector to voltage that does not
comply with regulations.
• Do not use the portable charger if it
is worn out, exposed, or there
exists any type of damage on the
portable charger.
• If the ICCB case and normal charg-
ing connector is damaged, cracked,
or the wires are exposed in any way,
do not use the portable charger.• Do not let children operate or touch
the portable charger.
• Keep the control box free of water.
• Keep the normal charging connec-
tor or plug terminal free of foreign
substances.
• Do not step on the cable or cord.
Do not pull the cable or cord and
do not twist or bend it.
• Do not charge when there is light-
ning.
• Do not drop the control box or
place a heavy object on the control
box.
• Do not place an object that can
generate high temperatures near
the charger when charging.
• Charging with the worn out or dam-
aged household electric outlet can
result in a risk of electric shock. If
you are in doubt to the household
electric outlet condition, have it
checked by a licensed electrician.
• Stop using the portable charger
immediately if the household elec-
tric outlet or any components is
overheated or you notice burnt
odors.

Starting the Vehicle
Vehicles with remote key system
1.Make sure the parking brake is
applied.
2.Make sure the shift lever is in P
(Park).
3.Depress the brake pedal.
4.Turn the ignition swich to the
START position. Hold the key
(maximum of 10 senconds) until
the " " comes on and release it.
Whether the engine is cold or
warm, it should be started without
depressing the accelerator.
After following the start proce-
dures, “ ” indicator on the
instrument cluster will turn on.
For more information, please check
Chapter 5.
Vehicles with smart key system
1.Carry the smart key or leave it
inside the vehicle.
2.Make sure the parking brake is
firmly applied.
3.Place the shift lever in P (Park).
With the shift lever in N (Neutral),
you cannot start the vehicle.
4.Depress the brake pedal.
5.Press the Engine Start/Stop but-
ton. If the hybrid system starts, the
" " indicator will come on.
Whether the engine is cold or
warm, it should be started without
depressing the accelerator.
After following the start proce-
dures, “ ” indicator on the
instrument cluster will turn on.
For more information, please check
Chapter 5.ECONOMICAL and SAFE OPERA-
TION of Hybrid system
• Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate and maintain a
steady cruising speed. Do not
make "jack-rabbit" starts. Do not
race between stoplights.
Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-
sible. Always maintain a safe dis-
tance from other vehicles so you
can avoid unnecessary braking.
This also reduces brake wear out.
• The regenerative brake generates
energy when the vehicle deceler-
ates.
• When the hybrid battery power is
low, the hybrid system automatical-
ly recharges the hybrid battery.
• When the engine run with the shift
lever in N (Neutral), the hybrid sys-
tem cannot generate electricity. The
hybrid battery cannot recharge with
the shift lever in N (Neutral).
