Understanding virtual engine sound system
Electric vehicles do not use an internal combustion engine, so there is no engine noise
while driving. The Virtual Engine Sound System (VESS) generates engine sound to make
pedestrians aware of the approaching vehicle when driving.
• If the vehicle is in the ready ( ) mode and the gear is not in P (Park), the VESS is operated.
• When the gear is shifted to R (Reverse), an additional warning sound will be heard.
CAUTION • Be aware that the vehicle does not make engine noise while driving.
• Pay attention to the surrounding environment and drive carefully.
• After parking or waiting for a traffic light, please check around for children, or other obstacles before departure.
• When reversing, check directly behind you before driving. Pedestrians may not be able to recognize vehicle sounds.

Checking Electric Vehicle Driving Information
During vehicle operation, the instrument cluster displays the main information, such as
distance to empty, real-time energy status, battery charge level, and warning messages,
via the user interface and indicators.
Factors affecting the distance to empty
The distance to empty refers to the distance that can be driven by the current charged
battery level and is displayed on the bottom of the instrument cluster while driving the
electric vehicle.
B0002901
The distance to empty vary depending on many factors such as driving habits, power
usage, driving conditions, and high voltage battery. The distance to empty may be
increased or decreased from the certified figures as it reflects all the factors
comprehensively. Check the distance to empty considering the following:
Hyundai_CE_en_US.book Page 54

1-55
• The driving habits: The driving speed and tendency of accelerating and decelerating. High speed driving or frequent accelerating and decelerating reduces the distance to
empty.
• The power usage: Additional power use, such as the air conditioner, heater, lights, etc. As the power usage increases, the distance to empty reduces.
• The driving conditions: The weather, temperature, and terrain. If you drive in snow/rain/strong wind or low temperature, the distance to empty will be reduced. The
distance to empty will also be reduced when driving uphill or on slippery or rough
roads.
• The high voltage battery energy: Proportional to the State of Charge (SOC), but may vary depending on the battery temperature and the State of Health (SOH) of a battery.
Change in the distance to empty when 100 % charged
In case the distance to empty has been reduced due to learning of the driving habit or the
driving conditions, you can increase the distance to empty again by continuously driving
following the “Tips for enhancing the distance to empty”.
• Resetting the previously learned driving patterns at the service center may increase the distance to empty displayed on the bottom of the instrument cluster, but it does
not increase the actual distance to empty. The distance to empty may not be accurate
until the learning proceeds.
• If the high voltage battery temperature is low in winter, the distance to empty reduces but it is not a permanent change. The distance to empty will increase again once the
temperature rises.
• If you reduce the power usage, the distance to empty will increase.
• 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 setting a destination
When the destination is set, the distance to empty may change because the distance to
empty is recalculated using the information of the destination instead of the learned
electric energy economy history.
Information The distance to empty may vary significantly based on traffic conditions or driving speed.

• When the remaining battery of the high voltage battery is lower than 10 %, the warning light will be displayed.
• When the warning light is displayed, charge the vehicle.
Information • To find a nearby charging station, refer to the “Searching for nearby charging stations” in this chapter.
• Check if the SOC is enough before driving on highways.
• After the warning light is displayed, immediately charge the vehicle at a nearby charging station. The vehicle may not operate properly depending on the driving speed, weather, and
other driving conditions.

Checking the warning and indicator lights
The warning and indicator lights are displayed in the middle of the instrument cluster
before or while driving, depending on the status of the electric vehicle. Understand the
