Convenient features of your vehicle
The wireless cellular phone charging system may not sup-
port certain cellular phones,
which are not verified for the Qi
specification ( ).
When placing your cellular phone on the charging mat,
position the phone in the middle
of the mat for optimal charging
performance. If your cell phone
is off to the side, the charging
rate may be less and in some
cases the cell phone may experi-
ence higher heat conduction.
In some cases, the wireless charging may stop temporarily
when the Smart Key is used,
either when starting the vehicle or
locking/unlocking the doors, etc.
When charging certain cellular phones, the charging indicator
may not change to green when
the cell phone is fully charged.
The wireless charging process may temporarily stop, when the
temperature abnormally
increases inside the wireless
cellular phone charging system. Stop the charging cellular phone
and wait until the temperature
falls to a certain level.
The wireless charging process may temporarily stop when
there is any metallic item, such
as a coin, between the wireless
cellular phone charging system
and the cellular phone.
When charging some cell phones with the case still
applied, the wireless charging
speed may decrease and the
wireless charging may stop.
If the cellular phone has a thick cover, the wireless charging may
not be possible.
If the cell phone is not complete- ly contacting the charging pad,
wireless charging may not oper-
ate properly.
Some magnetic items like credit cards, phone cards or rail tickets
may be damaged if left with the
cellular phone during the charg-
ing process. When any cellular phone with-
out a wireless charging function
or a metallic object is placed on
the charging pad, a small noise
may sound. This small sound is
due to the vehicle discerning
compatibility of the object
placed on the charging pad. It
does not affect your vehicle or
the cellular phone in any way.
Information
If the Engine Start/Stop button is
OFF, the charging also stops.
