6. When charging is complete, hold the charging connector handle with the unlock button pressed and pull on the charging connector to disconnect it from the charging 
inlet.
• Depending on the DC charger types, some DC chargers may not have a charger connector unlock button so it may be necessary to stop at the DC charger control 
panel or by charger company's app.
CAUTION Before disconnecting the charging connector, check if there is an unlock button on the 
connector handle. If the connector handle is equipped with an unlock button, forcibly 
disconnecting the connector without pressing the button may damage the charging 
connector or charging inlet on the vehicle.

Using a Portable Charger (ICCB)
If the vehicle cannot be moved to a public charging station, you can charge the vehicle 
using a separately purchased In-Cable Control Box (ICCB) in places where general power 
(AC 120 V) is supplied.
WARNING Before charging the vehicle, carefully read and follow the instructions in “Setting 
charging connector locking mode” to prevent property damage or injury due to electric 
shock, fire, explosion, etc.
 
CAUTION To prevent property damage or injury due to fire or explosion, follow the instructions 
below.
• Only use a genuine HYUNDAI portable charger (if equipped).
• Do not let children operate or touch the portable charger. Doing so may lead to  unexpected accidents.
• Try to avoid using an extension cord, but if you must use to reach a 120 V outlet, ensure  it is a medium to heavy duty grounded extension cord rated at 15 A minimum.
• The charger power you are using must comply with regulations and safely  accommodate the Voltage, Current (Amps), and Power (Watts) ratings. If not, the 
vehicle may not be charged or safety hazards, such as fire, may occur.

battery level is too low or 
voltage is decreasing. 
(Output limit occurs when the 
charge level is insufficient.)
• When the temperature of the  high voltage battery is too 
high or too low.
• When the driving system  temperature is overheated 
and requires protection. If it illuminates alone, it is not 
failure.
• If both Power down indicator 
light and Service warning 
light illuminate at the same 
time, have the vehicle
