Off-peak time settings
1.  If selected, starts charging only on the designated off-peak time If  
deselected, starts charging only on the scheduled time
2.  Set the most inexpensive time to  complete charging
3.  •			Off-peak	tariffs	prioritized:	If	
selected, starts charging at off-peak 
time (may keep on charging pass 
off-peak time to charge 100%)    
•	 Off-peak tariffs only: If selected, 
charges only within off-peak time 
(may not charge 100%) Charging limit
OOSEV040534L
OOSEV040535L
•	 The maximum charging limit can be  
selected for either DC fast charging 
(DC charger) or Level 1 / Level 2 
charging (AC charger). Charging will 
stop when the vehicle reaches the 
designated battery charge level.
•	 The maximum charging limit can be 
adjusted in 10% increments.
•	 Note that if the battery charge level 
(SOC%) is above the designated 
maximum charging limit, the vehicle 
will not be charged.

Charging current
OOSEV040493L
•	 For Level 1 or Level 2 charging, you  
can also adjust the charging current. 
Select the appropriate charging 
current based on the type of charger 
and current capacity.
•	 If the charging process does not start 
or abruptly stops in the middle, re-
select another proper current and 
re-try charging the vehicle.
•	 Charging time varies depending on 
which charging current is selected.
ECO Driving
OOSEV040536L
Select ‘EV  ÞECO Driving’ on the screen. 
You can check the CO2 reduction and  
ECO driving history.
CO2 reduction
OOSEV040537L
The CO2 reduction display allows you  
to monitor the benefits of reduced 
greenhouse gas emissions of your EV 
relative to a conventional gasoline 
vehicle.  While driving your vehicle, the 
display estimates the amount of reduced 
CO2 that would have been emitted from 
tailpipe emissions of a conventional 
vehicle.

System Setting and Activation
System setting 
The driver can activate the Utility mode  
function when the following conditions 
are satisfied. •	The vehicle is in the ready (
) mode 
and the gear is shifted to P (Park).
•	 The EPB (Electronic Parking Brake) is  applied.
•	 ‘EV settings 
ÞUtility mode’ is 
selected on the infotainment system 
screen. 
System Activation 
When the system is activated:•	 The (
) indicator will turn off and 
the () indicator will illuminate on 
the cluster. 
•	 All electric devices are usable but the  
vehicle cannot be driven.
•	 The EPB can be cancelled by pressing 
the EPB switch. 
Gear cannot be shifted out of P (Park).  
If a shift attempt is made, a message 
“Shifting conditions not met” will be 
displayed on the infotainment system 
screen. 
System Deactivation 
The Utility mode can be deactivated by  
pressing the START/STOP button to the 
OFF position. The function cannot be 
deactivated from the EV settings. Winter mode
OOSEV040540L
In cold climates and during winter  
months, electric vehicle range may 
reduce and charging times may increase.  
This is primarily due to reduced  
performance of the EV battery when 
exposed to cold temperatures. 
Some vehicles may come equipped with  
Winter mode selectable option. The 
Winter mode feature can be selected in 
the EV Settings menu. 
When selected, Winter mode enables  
the use of the EV battery coolant heater. 
This mode is recommended to improve 
EV battery performance in cold climate conditions. 
Note that EV range may reduce when  
Winter mode is enabled, as electrical 
energy is used to maintain the EV battery 
temperature. 
Winter mode enables operation of the  
EV battery coolant heater.  While driving 
your vehicle, if the battery temperature 
is low or the A/C and/or heater is turned 
ON, the EV battery coolant heater will be used. 
Note that the EV battery coolant heater  
will not be used when the EV battery 
SOC is low.
 
à This mode is available for the vehicles 
equipped with the battery heater.

How to Start the Vehicle
1.  Holding the smart key, sit in the driver’s seat. 
2.  Fasten the seat belt before starting  the vehicle. 
3.  Make sure to engage the parking  brake. 
4.  Turn OFF all electrical devices. 
5.  Make sure to depress and hold the  brake pedal. 
6.  While depressing the brake pedal,  shift to P (Park).
7.   Depress and hold the brake pedal  
while pressing the Start/Stop button. 
8.  When the “
” indicator is ON, you 
can drive the vehicle. When the “
” indicator is OFF, you 
cannot drive the vehicle. Start the  
vehicle again. 
9.  Depress and hold the brake pedal and 
shift to the desired position. 
 Information
While the charging cable is connected, the  
gear cannot be shift from P (Park) to any 
other gear for safety reasons. 
10. Release the parking brake and slowly  release the brake pedal. Check if the  
vehicle slowly moves forward, then 
depress the accelerator pedal.  
How to Stop the Vehicle
1.  Hold down the brake pedal while the 
vehicle is parked.
2.  While depressing the brake pedal,  shift to P (Park).
3.  While depressing the brake pedal,  engage the parking brake. 
4.  While depressing the brake pedal,  
press the Start/Stop button and turn 
off the vehicle. 
5.  Check if the “
” indicator is turned 
OFF on the instrument cluster. When the “
” indicator is ON and 
the gear is in a position other than  
P (Park), the driver can accidently 
depress the accelerator pedal, causing 
the vehicle to move unexpectedly.

Warning and Indicator Lights  
(related to electric vehicle)
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, 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, have your vehicle inspected 
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Power Down Warning Light
This warning light illuminates :
When the power output from the vehicle  
is limited. The vehicle is in fail-safe mode. 
Power from the vehicle is limited due to  
one of the following reasons:  - The state of charge (SOC) of the high  voltage battery is very low. Typically 
the Power Down Warning Light will 
turn ON when the SOC is below 3%.
 - The temperature of the EV drive motor  or the high voltage battery is either 
too high (overheating) or too low 
(freezing)
 - There is a problem with either the  cooling system or a vehicle system 
warning has occurred 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.
