1. Hold the charging connector han-dle and pull it while pressing the
release button (1).
Information
To prevent charging cable theft, the
charging connector cannot be discon-
nected from the inlet when the doors
are locked. Unlock all doors to discon-
nect the charging connector from the
inlet. However, if the vehicle is in the
charging connector AUTO mode, the
charging connector automatically
unlocks from the inlet when charging is
completed. For more details, refer to
"Charging Connector AUTO/LOCK
Mode" in this chapter. 2. Make sure to completely close the
charging door. 3. Disconnect the plug from the
household electric outlet. Do not
pull the cable when disconnecting
the plug.
4. Close the protective cover for the charging connector so that foreign
material cannot get into the termi-
nal.
5. Put the charging cable inside the cable compartment to protect it.

How to Disconnect Portable Charger (ICCB: In-Cable Control Box)

H24
Unlock Charging Connector inEmergency
If the charging connector does not
disconnect due to battery discharge
and failure of the electric wires, open
the hood and slightly pull the emer-
gency cable. The charging connector
will then disconnect .
Precautions for PortableCharger (ICCB: In-Cable ControlBox)
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
1. Carry the smart key or leave itinside 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.
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 is running with the shift lever in N (Neutral), the
hybrid system cannot generate
electricity. The hybrid battery can-
not recharge with the shift lever in N
(Neutral).
Information
In the hybrid system, the engine auto-
matically runs and stops. When the
hybrid system operates, the " "
indicator is illuminated.
In the following situation, the engine
may operate automatically.
- When the engine is ready to run
- When the hybrid battery is beingcharged
- Depending on the temperature con- dition of the hybrid battery

Special Features
Hybrid vehicles sound different than
gasoline engine vehicles. When the
hybrid system operates, you may
hear a sound from the hybrid battery
system behind the rear seat. If you
apply the accelerator pedal rapidly,
you may hear an unconventional
sound. When you apply the brake
pedal, you may hear a sound from
the regenerative brake system.
When the hybrid system is turned off
or on, you may hear a sound in the
engine compartment. If you depress
the brake pedal repeatedly when the
hybrid system is turned on, you may
hear a sound in the engine compart-
ment. None of these sounds indicate
a problem. These are normal charac-
teristics of hybrid vehicles. If any of following occur, it's a normal
condition if you hear a motor sound
in the engine compartment:
- After turning off the hybrid system,
the brake pedal is released.
- When the hybrid system is turned off, the brake pedal is applied.
- When the driver door is opened.
When the hybrid system is turned
ON, the gasoline engine may acti-
vate or may not. In this situation, you
may feel a vibration. This does not
indicate a malfunction. When the
" " indicator illuminates, the
hybrid system is ready to begin driv-
ing. Even if the engine is off, you can
operate the vehicle as long as the
" " indicator is illuminated. The hybrid system contains many
electronic components. High volt-
age components, such as cables
and other parts, may emit electro-
magnetic waves. Even when the
electromagnetic cover blocks elec-
tromagnetic emissions, electro-
magnetic waves may have an
effect on electronic devices. When
your vehicle is not used for a long
period of time, the hybrid system
will discharge. You need to drive
the vehicle several times a month.
We recommend driving at least for
1 hour or 10 miles. When the
hybrid battery is discharged, or
when it is impossible to jump start
the vehicle, contact your HYUNDAI
dealer.
NOTICE

H27
Virtual Engine Sound System(VESS)
The Virtual Engine Sound System
generates engine sounds for pedes-
trians to hear vehicle sound because
there is limited sound while electric
power is used.
What Does RegenerativeBraking Do?
It uses an electric motor when decel-
erating and when braking and trans-
forms kinetic energy to electrical
energy in order to charge the high
voltage battery.
Battery
Hybrid vehicle
- The vehicle is composed of ahigh voltage battery that drives
the motor and air conditioner, and
an integrated 12V lithium ion
polymer battery with the HEV
battery that drives the lamps,
wipers, and audio system.
- The integrated 12V battery is automatically charged when the
vehicle is in the ready ( )
mode.
Plug-in hybrid vehicle - The vehicle is composed of ahigh voltage battery that drives
the motor and air-conditioner,
and an auxiliary battery (12 V)
that drives the lamps, wipers, and
audio system.
- The auxiliary battery is automati- cally charged when the vehicle is
in the ready ( ) mode.
When you start the hybrid
system with the shift lever in
P (Park), the " " indicator
illuminates on the instrument
cluster. The driver can drive
the vehicle, even when the
gasoline engine is off.
When you leave the vehicle,
you should turn OFF the vehi-
cle and place the shift lever in
P (Park). If you depress the
accelerator pedal by mistake,
or when the shift lever is not in
P (Park), the vehicle will
abruptly move, possibly result-
ing in serious injury or death.

Hybrid System Gauge
The hybrid system gauge indicates
whether the current driving condition
is fuel efficient or not.
CHARGE : Shows that the energy made by
the vehicle is being converted
to electrical energy. (Regenerated
energy)
ECO : Shows that the vehicle is being
driven in an Eco-friendly manner.
POWER : Shows that the vehicle is exceeding
the Eco-friendly range. According 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 driv- en 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 (State of
charge) gauge is near the "L (Low)"
level, have the vehicle checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
