Instrument cluster control
Instrument panel illumination
OOSEV040056L
When the vehicle’s position lights or
headlamps are on, press the illumination
control button to adjust the brightness of
the instrument panel illumination.
When pressing the illumination control
button, the interior switch illumination
intensity is also adjusted.
WARNING
Never adjust the instrument cluster
while driving. This could result in loss
of control and lead to an accident that
may cause death, serious injury, or
vehicle damage.
OCN7040019L
• The brightness of the instrument
panel illumination is displayed.
• If the brightness reaches the
maximum or minimum level, an alarm will sound.
Gauges and meters
Speedometer
OOSEV040472L
The speedometer indicates the speed of
the vehicle and is calibrated in kilometers
per hour (km/h).
Power/Charge gauge
OOSEV040474L
The Power/Charge gauge shows the
energy consumption rate of the vehicle
and the charge/discharge status of the
regenerative brakes. • POWER :
It shows the energy consumption rate
of the vehicle when driving uphill or
accelerating. The more electric energy is
used, the higher the gauge level. • CHARGE :
It shows the charging status of the
battery when it is being charged by the
regenerative brakes (decelerating or
driving on a downhill road). The more
electric energy is charged, the lower the
gauge level.

State of Charge (SOC) gauge for high
voltage battery
OOSEV040475L
The SOC gauge shows the charging
status of the high voltage battery.
"L (Low)" position on the indicator
indicates that there is not enough energy
in the high voltage battery. "H (High)"
position indicates that the driving battery
is fully charged.
When driving on highways or motorways,
make sure to check in advance if the
driving battery is charged enough.
When there are 2 gauge bars (near the
“L (Low)" area) on the SOC gauge, the
warning light (
) turns ON to alert
you of the battery level.
When the warning light (
) turns
ON, the vehicle can drive an additional
20~30 km (12~18 miles) depending on
the driving speed, heater/air conditioner,
weather, driving style, and other factors.
Charging is required.
NOTICE
When there are 1-2 gauge bars left for
the high voltage battery, the vehicle
speed is limited and then eventually the
vehicle will turn OFF. Charge the vehicle
immediately. Outside Temperature Gauge
OOSEV040484L
This gauge indicates the current outside
air temperatures either in Celsius (°C) or
Fahrenheit.
- Temperature range : -40°C ~ 60°C (-40°F ~ 140°F)
The outside temperature on the display
may not immediately change like a
general thermometer not to distract the
driver.
The temperature unit (from °C to °F or
from °F to °C) can be changed by: - User Settings mode in the Cluster : You can change the temperature unit
in the “Units - Temperature unit” .
- Automatic climate control system : While pressing the OFF button, press
the AUTO button for 3 seconds or
more.
The temperature unit of the instrument
cluster and climate control system will
change at once.

Odometer
OOSEV040485L
The odometer indicates the total
distance that the vehicle has been
driven and should be used to determine
when periodic maintenance should be
performed. Distance to emptyOOSEV040486L
The distance to empty is the estimated
distance the vehicle can be driven with
remaining level of the high voltage
battery.
For more details, refer to "Distance to
Empty"in the Electric Vehicle Guide in
front of the owner's manual.
Information
• If the vehicle is not on level ground or
the battery power has been interrupted, the distance to empty function may not
operate correctly.
• The distance to empty may differ
from the actual driving distance as it is an estimate of the available driving distance.
• The distance to empty may vary significantly based on driving conditions, driving habits, and condition of the vehicle.

Reduction gear shift indicator
OCN7040013
This indicator displays which gear is
selected. Regenerative braking level indicatorOOSEV040483L
While using the regenerative brakes, you
may select the regenerative braking level
from 0 to 3 by pulling the paddle shifter.
For more details, refer to "Regenerative
Braking System" in chapter 6.

Warning and indicator lights
Information
Make sure that all warning lights are OFF
after starting the vehicle. If any light is still ON, this indicates a situation that needs attention.
Ready indicator
This indicator illuminates:
When the vehicle is ready to be driven. - ON : Normal driving is possible.
- OFF : Normal driving is not possible, or a problem has occurred.
- Blinking : Emergency driving.
When the ready indicator goes OFF
or blinks, there is a problem with the
system. In this case, we recommend that
you have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Service Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
• When the START/STOP button is in the ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3 seconds and then goes off.
• When there is a problem with related
parts of the electric vehicle control
system, such as sensors, etc.
When the warning light illuminates
while driving, or does not go OFF after
starting the vehicle, we recommend that
you have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Power Down Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
• When the START/STOP button is in the ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3 seconds and then goes off.
• When the power is limited for the
safety of the electric vehicle.
The power is limited for the following
reasons.
- The high voltage battery level is below a certain level or voltage is
decreasing
- The temperature of the motor or high voltage battery is too high or
too low
- There is a problem with the cooling system, or a failure that may
interrupt normal driving
NOTICE
• Do not accelerate or start the vehicle
suddenly when the power down
warning light is ON.
• When the high voltage battery level
is low, the power down warning
illuminates and the power output
from the vehicle is limited. Charge
the battery immediately since your
vehicle may not drive uphill or skid
on a slope with the warning light ON.

Charging Indicator Light
(red)
This warning light illuminates:
•
When charging the high voltage
battery.
High Voltage Battery Level
Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
• When the high voltage battery level
is low.
• When the warning light turns ON,
charge the battery immediately. Air Bag Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
•
When you turn the START/STOP
button to the ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 6 seconds and then goes off.
• When there is a malfunction with the SRS.
In this case, we recommend that
you have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Seat Belt Warning Light
This warning light informs the driver that
the seat belt is not fastened.
For more details, refer to “Seat Belts” in
chapter 3.

4-9
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid
Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
•
When you set the START/STOP button in the ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3 seconds.
- It remains on if the parking brake is applied.
• When the parking brake is applied.
• When the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
- If the warning light illuminates with the parking brake released, it
indicates the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
• When the regenerative brake does not
operate.
If the brake fluid level in the reservoir is low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the vehicle turned off, check the brake fluid level immediately and add
fluid as required (For more details,
refer to “Brake Fluid” in chapter 9) .
After adding brake fluid, check all
brake components for fluid leaks. If
a brake fluid leak is found, or if the
warning light remains on, or if the
brakes do not operate properly, do not
drive the vehicle. We recommend that
you have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal braking systems. This means
you still have braking on two wheels even
if one of the dual systems should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal travel
and greater pedal pressure are required
to stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working.
WARNING
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid Warning
Light
Driving the vehicle with a warning light
ON is dangerous. If the Parking Brake &
Brake Fluid Warning Light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid level is
low.
In this case, we recommend that you
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
