01
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of
an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:

[How various systems in your vehicle were operating;

[Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/ fastened;

[How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,

[How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-
trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving
conditions and no personal data (for example, name, gender, age, and crash location)
are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the
EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties,
such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if
they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

Foreword / Starting your Electric vehicle
Electric Vehicle
An electric vehicle is driven using a
battery and an electric motor. While
general vehicles use an internal
combustion engine and gasoline as fuel,
electric vehicles use electrical energy
that is charged inside the high voltage
battery. As a result, electric vehicles are
eco-friendly in that they do not require
fuel and do not emit exhaust gases.
Characteristics of Electric
Vehicles
1. It is driven using the electrical energy
that is charged inside the high voltage
battery. This method prevents air
pollution since fuel, like gasoline, is
not required, negating the emission of
exhaust gases.
2. A high performance motor is used
in the vehicle as well. Compared to
standard, internal combustion engine
vehicles, engine noise and vibrations
are much more minimal when driving.
3. When decelerating or driving
downhill, regenerative braking is
utilized to charge the high voltage
battery. This minimizes energy loss
and increases the distance to empty.
4. When the battery charge is not
sufficient, AC charge, DC charge and
trickle charge are available. (Refer to
“Charge Types for Electric Vehicle” for
details.)
Information
What does regenerative braking do?
It uses an electric motor when decelerating
and braking and transforms kinetic
energy to electrical energy in order to
charge the high voltage battery. (Torque
is applied in the opposite direction when
decelerating to generate braking force and
electric energy.)
Battery Information

[The vehicle is composed of a high
voltage battery that drives the motor
and air-conditioner, and an auxiliary
battery (12 V) that powers all the
vehicle controllers, lamps, wipers, and
audio system.

[The auxiliary battery is automatically
charged when the vehicle is in the
ready (
) mode or the high
voltage battery is being charged.
The 12V battery is also occasionally
charged by battery saver function
from the high voltage battery under
certain conditions at vehicle off
condition.

MAIN COMPONENTS OF ELECTRIC VEHICLE
Main Components of Electric
Vehicle

[On-Board Charger (OBC) : A device
that charges the high voltage battery
by converting AC power of the power
grid to DC power.

[Inverter : Transforms direct current
into alternate current to supply power
to the motor, and transforms alternate
current into direct current to charge
the high voltage battery.

[LDC : Transforms power from the high
voltage battery to low voltage (12 V) to
supply power to the vehicle (DC-DC).

[VCU : Control the various controls on
the vehicle.

[Motor : Uses electrical energy stored
inside the high voltage battery to drive
the vehicle (functions like an engine in
a standard vehicle).

[Reduction gear : Delivers rotational
force of the motor to the tires at
appropriate speeds and torque.

[High voltage battery (lithium ion
polymer) : Stores and supplies power
necessary for the electric vehicle
to operate (12 V auxiliary battery
provides power to the vehicle features
such as lights and wipers).
ÃOBC : On-Board Charger
ÃLDC : Low Voltage DC-DC Converter
ÃVCU : Vehicle Control Unit
WARNING

[Do not intentionally remove
or disassemble high voltage
components and high voltage
battery connectors and wires. Also,
be careful not to damage high
voltage components and the high
voltage battery. It may cause serious
injury and significantly impact the
performance and durability of the
vehicle.

[When inspection and maintenance
is required for high voltage
components and the high voltage
battery, contact an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products.
High Voltage Battery
(lithium ion polymer)

[The charge amount of the high
voltage battery may gradually
decrease when the vehicle is not
being driven.

[The battery capacity of the high
voltage battery may decrease when
the vehicle is stored in high/low
temperatures.

[Distance to empty may vary
depending on the driving conditions
(such as outside temperature), even
if the charge amount is the same.
The high voltage battery may expend
more energy when driving at high-
speed or uphill. These actions may
reduce the distance to empty.

[The high voltage battery is used
when using the air-conditioner /
heater. This will reduce the distance
to empty. Make sure to set moderate
temperatures when using the air-
conditioner/heater.

1-10
Foreword / Starting your Electric vehicle

[Natural degradation may occur with
the high voltage battery depending
on the number of years the vehicle is
used. This may reduce the distance to
empty.

[When the charge capacity or DTE
has fallen more than 30% from
when vehicle was new, contact
an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products for inspection and
maintenance.

[If the vehicle will not be in use for an
extended period of time, charge the
high voltage battery once every three
months to prevent it from discharging.
Also, if the charge amount is not
enough, immediately charge to full
and store the vehicle.

[AC charge is recommended to keep
the high voltage battery in optimal
condition.
If the high voltage battery charge
amount is below 20%, you can keep
the high voltage battery performance
in optimal condition if you charge the
high voltage battery to 100%. (Once a
month or more is recommended.)
The value of the high voltage battery
charge level may vary according to
the charging conditions (state of
charger, outside temperature, battery
temperature, etc.). In order to fully
charge the battery, the current of the
high voltage battery will be gradually
decreased, so that the longevity and
safety of the battery can be secured.
CAUTION

[If the vehicle is kept with insufficient
charge for a long period, it may
damage the high voltage battery and
the high voltage battery may have to
be replaced depending on the level
of degradation.
[If the vehicle is in a collision, contact
an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products to inspect
whether the high voltage battery is
still connected.

[Using the V2L function may reduce
the mileage due to the use of high
voltage battery energy, and repeated
use of the V2L function may cause
a decrease in the life of the high
voltage battery.

[Using the V2L function may reduce
the driving distance due to the use
of high voltage battery energy, and
repeated use of the V2L function may
cause a decrease in the life of the
high voltage battery.
High Voltage Battery Warmer
System
The high voltage battery warmer system
prevents reduction of battery output
when battery temperature is low. If the
charging connector is connected, the
warmer system automatically operates
according to the battery temperature.
Charging time may shorten compare to
vehicles without the high voltage battery
warmer system. But, electricity charge
may increase because of high voltage
battery warmer system operation.
CAUTION
The high voltage battery warmer
system operates when the charging
connector is connected to the vehicle.
However, the high voltage warmer
system may not operate when battery
temperature drops below -31°F (-35°C).
