To charge a mobile phone
The wireless mobile phone charging
system charges only the Qi-enabled
mobile phones ( ). Read the label
on the mobile phone accessory
cover or visit your mobile phone
manufacturer’s website to check
whether your mobile phone supports
the Qi technology.
The wireless charging process starts
when you put a Qi-enabled mobile
phone on the wireless charging unit.
1. Remove other items, including the
smart key, from the wireless charg-
ing unit. If not, the wireless charg-
ing process may be interrupted.
2. The indicator illuminates in orange
during the charging process. The
indicator colour changes to green,
when the charging process is
completed.
3. You can turn ON or OFF the wire-
less charging function in the User
Settings mode on the instrument
cluster. For further information,
refer to “LCD display Modes” in
this chapter.Slightly change the mobile phone
position, when the mobile phone is
not being charged. Make sure that
the indicator illuminates in orange.
The indicator colour may not change
to green depending on the mobile
phone type, even though the charg-
ing process has been completed.
The indicator blinks orange for 10
seconds when there is a malfunction
with the wireless charging system.
In this case, temporarily stop the
charging process, and re-attempt to
wirelessly charge your mobile phone
again.
The system warns you with a mes-
sage on the LCD display if you do not
remove the cellular phone from the
wireless charging unit, when the front
door is open and the ignition switch is
in the OFF position.
The wireless mobile phone
charging system may not sup-
port certain mobile phones,
which are not verified for the Qi
specification ( ).
(Continued)(Continued)
Locate your mobile phone well in
the middle of the wireless mobile
phone charging system. Even
when your mobile phone locates
slightly to one side, the charging
speed may decrease.
The wireless charging process
may temporarily stop, when a
smart key function operates (i.e.
starting the engine, opening the
doors, closing the doors).
For certain mobile phones, the
indicator colour may not change
to green, even when the wireless
charging process is properly
completed.
The wireless charging process may
temporarily stop, when tempera-
ture abnormally increases inside
the wireless mobile phone charg-
ing system. The wireless charging
process restarts, when tempera-
ture 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
mobile phone charging system
and a mobile phone.
