Foreword / Starting Your Electric Vehicle
Information
To prevent charging cable theft,
the charging connector cannot be
disconnected from the inlet when the
doors are locked or the charging connector
is in the LOCK mode. Unlock all doors to
disconnect 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.
If the charging connector is disconnected
while the release button is not pressed, the
connector and the inlet may be damaged.
For more details, refer to “Charging
Connector Lock” in this chapter.
If the release button does not work even
after the all doors are unlocked, pull
the emergency lift cable in the motor
room and press the release button in the
connector to disconnect it from the vehicle.
If the release button still does not work,
consult an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
Information
Some connectors installed in public
charging stations stop charging by
pressing the charge release button while
charging is locked, and the connector can
be disconnected.
3. Make sure to completely close the
charging door.
4. Close the protection caps of the
charging connector and the charging
plug to protect them from foreign
substances.
5. If the personal charging connector is
used, store the connector in the cable
compartment.
DC Charge
„DC Charger
OSQCEQ019005
You can charge at high speed at public
charging stations. Refer to the respective
company’s manual that is provided for
each DC charger type.
Battery performance and durability can
deteriorate if the DC charger is used
constantly.
Use of DC charge should be minimized
in order to help prolong high voltage
battery life.
Actual charger image and charging
method may vary in accordance with
the charger manufacturer.
Information
If you use a DC charger when the vehicle
is already fully charged, some DC
chargers will send out an error message.
When the vehicle is fully charged, do not
charge the vehicle.

Foreword / Starting Your Electric Vehicle
Information
Even though charging is possible with
the Start/Stop button in the ON/START
position, for your safety, start charging
when the Start/Stop button is in the
OFF position and the vehicle shifted to P
(Park). After charging has started, you
can use electrical components such as the
radio by pressing the Start/Stop button to
the ACC or ON position.
During charging, the gear cannot be
shifted from P (Park) to any other gear.
ORG3EVQ011055L
8. After charging has started, the
estimated 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 instrument
cluster for about 1 minute.
Information

[Depending on the condition and
durability of the high voltage battery,
charger specifications, and ambient
temperature, the time required for
charging the battery may vary.

[In rare cases, you might hear high
frequency noise (very little beep sound)
outside the car when charging with
400V DC charger that is deteriorated
or has long communication delay.
The high frequency noise can be
generated only when the car tries to
reduce its own electromagnetic waves
to keep DC charging as possible.
So there is no need to worry about this
little noise, because it is the intentional
operation of the car that does not
affect any charging performance or the
vehicle itself at all.
Checking Charging Status
When charging the high voltage battery,
the charge level can be checked from
outside the vehicle.
For more details, refer to ‘Charge
Indicator Lamp for Electric Vehicle’ in
this chapter.
How to Disconnect DC Charger
1. Remove the charging connector
when DC charging is completed, or
after you stop charging using the DC
charger. Refer to each respective DC
charger manual for details about how
to disconnect the charging connector.
2. Make sure to completely close the
charging door.

Precautions for Portable Charger
(ICCB: In-Cable Control Box)

[Use the portable charger that is certified
by Genesis Branded Vehicle.

[Do not try to repair, disassemble, or adjust
the portable charger.

[Do not use an extension cord or adapter.

[Stop using immediately when failure
occurs.

[Do not touch the plug and charging
connector with wet hands.

[Do not touch the terminal part of the AC
charging connector and the AC charging
inlet on the vehicle.

[Do not connect the charging connector
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 AC charging
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 connector 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 lightning.

[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 damaged
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 electric
outlet or any components is overheated
or you notice burnt odors.
