Utility Mode
The high voltage battery is used instead
of the 12V auxiliary battery for operating
the convenient features of the vehicle.
When driving is not necessary such as
while camping or when stopping the
vehicle for a long time, it is possible to
use the electrical devices (audio, lights,
air conditioner, heater, etc.) for long
hours.

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
not a malfunction.
• ‘EV settings → Utility 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 and the EPB is applied.
• 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

How to Connect AC Charger
1. Depress the brake pedal and apply the
parking brake.
2. Turn OFF all switches, shift to P (Park), and turn OFF the vehicle.
If charging is initiated without the
gear in P (Park), the charging will start
after the gear is automatically shifted
to P (Park).

3. Open the charging door.
For more details, refer to ‘Electric
charging door’ in this chapter.
Information
If you cannot open the charging door due
to freezing weather, tap lightly or remove
any ice near the charging door. Do not try
to forcibly open the charging door. 4.
Check if there is dust on the charging
connector and charging inlet.
5. Hold the charging connector handle and connect it to the vehicle charging
inlet. Push the connector all the way
in. If the charging connector and
charging terminal are not connected
properly, this may cause a fire.
Information
Locking Charging Cable
Select ‘Settings → ECO Vehicle →
Charging Connector Locking Mode’ in
the infotainment. The charging connector
is locked in the inlet at a different period according to which mode is selected. • Always mode : The connector locks
when the charging connector is plugged into the charging inlet.
• While charging mode : The connector locks when charging starts.
For more details, refer to “Locking
Charging Cable” in this chapter.

6. Connect the charging plug to the
electric outlet at a AC charging station
to start charging.
ONE1Q011041
7. Check if the charging indicator light (
) of the high voltage battery in
the instrument cluster is turned ON.
Charging is not active when the
charging indicator light (
) is OFF.
When the charging connector and
charging plug are not connected
properly, reconnect the charging
cable to charge.
Information
• Even though charging is possible with
the Start/Stop button in the ON/START
position, for you 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 AC charging, the radio
reception may be bad.
• During charging, the gear cannot be
shifted from P (Park) to any other gear.
ONE1Q011058E
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. When
scheduled charging or scheduled
air conditioner/heater is set, the
estimated charging time is displayed
as “--” .
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.

DC Charge
DC Charger
OAEEQ016023
You can charge at high speeds 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. How to Connect DC Charger
1. Depress the brake pedal and apply the
parking brake.
2. Turn OFF all switches, shift to P (Park), and turn OFF the vehicle.
ONE1Q011040
3. Open the charging door.
For more details, refer to ‘Electric
Charging Door’ in this chapter.
Information
If you cannot open the charging door due
to freezing weather, tap lightly or remove
any ice near the charging door. Do not try
to forcibly open the charging door.
4. Check whether there is dust or foreign
substances inside the charging
connector and charging inlet.
5. Hold the charging connector handle and connect it to the vehicle charging
inlet. Push the connector all the way
in. If the charging connector and
charging terminal are not connected
properly, this may cause a fire.
Refer to the manual for each type of
DC charger for how to charge and
remove the charger.

6. Check if the charging indicator light (
) of the high voltage battery in
the instrument cluster is turned ON.
Charging is not active when the
charging indicator light (
) is OFF.
When the charging connector is not
connected properly, reconnect the
charging cable to charge it again.
During cold weather, DC charging
may not be available to prevent high
voltage battery degradation.
Information
To control the temperature of the high voltage battery while charging, the
air conditioner is used to cool down the battery which may generate noise
from operation of the air conditioner
compressor and cooling fan.
Also, the air conditioner’s performance
may be degraded during summer due to
operation of the cooling system for the
high voltage battery.
Information
Even though charging is possible with
the Start/Stop button in the ON/START
position, for you 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.
ONE1Q011059E
7. 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 fast 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 fast 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.
