• V2L discharging mode shuts off if the vehicle turns off while using indoor V2L when the vehicle is ON.
• Opening the charging door or connecting the V2L connector to the charging inlet, the V2L discharging mode shuts off.
• If you want to use the indoor and outdoor V2L simultaneously, first connect the V2L connector to the charging inlet and then use the indoor V2L.
• When the high voltage battery charge level reaches the set discharging limit (%), the operation stops, and a warning message appears on the instrument cluster. If you want V2L operation, set
the discharging limit (%) lower than the current battery charge.
Indicator StatusDescription
Blue Standby
Red The power outlet is connected but no power is supplied.
Green The power outlet is connected, and the power is
supplied normally.

Solving V2L Problems
If a problem occurs while using the V2L function, the V2L stops and a related messages
appears on the instrument cluster.

below.
MessageCauseMeasure
V2L finished. Defined

Aux. Battery Saver+
The Aux. Battery Saver+ is a function that monitors the charging status of the 12 V battery.
If the 12 V battery level is low, the main high voltage battery charges the 12 V battery.
Information • The Aux. Battery Saver+ activates maximum of 20 minutes. If the Aux. Battery Saver+ function activates more than 10 times consecutively, in the Automatic Mode the function will stop
activating, judging that there is a problem with the auxiliary battery.
In this case, drive the vehicle for some period of time. The function will start activating if the
auxiliary battery returns to normal.
• The Aux. Battery Saver+ function cannot prevent battery discharge if the auxiliary battery is damaged, worn out, used as a power supply or unauthorized electronic devices are used.
• If the Aux. Battery Saver+ function was activated the high voltage battery level may have decreased.
WARNING
B5019903_1
When the function is activating the indicator light illuminates and high voltage electricity
flows into the vehicle. Do not touch the high voltage electric wire (orange), connector,
and all electric components and devices. This may cause electric shock and lead to
injuries. Also, do not modify your vehicle in any way. This may affect your vehicle
performance and lead to an accident.

Driving Your Electric Vehicle
Check how to use the devices inside the vehicle that you must know for driving, such as
starting, braking, and shifting the electric vehicle.
Starting and Stopping the Vehicle
Follow the instructions below to start or stop the vehicle.
CAUTION • Always fasten the seat belt before starting the vehicle for safety.
• Check if the EBP is applied before starting the vehicle.
Starting the vehicle
1. Holding the smart key, sit in the driver’s seat.
2. Press the Start/Stop button while pressing the brake pedal.• On the instrument cluster, (ready indicator) is displayed.
Information While the (ready indicator) is displayed, press the brake pedal, shift to D (Drive) or R
(Reverse), and release the EBP and the brake pedal to start moving the vehicle forward or
backward. You can start driving by pressing the accelerator pedal slowly and decelerate or stop by
pressing the brake pedal.
Stopping the vehicle
1. Stop the vehicle completely by pressing the brake pedal.
2. Apply the EPB while pressing the brake pedal, and press the gear’s P button to shift to P (Park).
3. Press the Start/Stop button. • The (ready indicator) on the instrument cluster turns off.
Information There are other Start/Stop button positions besides the ON/OFF. Use it appropriately paying
attention to the discharging of the 12 V battery.
•ACC : The 12 V battery power is turned on, allowing some devices, such as infotainment system
and air conditioning system to operate. Press the Start/Stop button when it is in the OFF position
to turn on ACC.
• ON : The 12 V battery power is turned on, allowing to check the instrument cluster and use all
the electric devices inside the vehicle. Press the Start/Stop button when it is in the ACC position
to turn it ON.

Tips for enhancing the distance to empty
The distance to empty vary depending on the charge level of the high voltage battery,
weather, temperature, duration of the battery use, terrain, driving habits, etc.
You can increase the distance to empty by driving the vehicle following the instructions
below.
• The air resistance increases rapidly as the electric vehicle drives faster, so avoid speeding to increase the distance to empty and the electric energy economy.
• Rapid acceleration consumes a lot of driving energy and rapid deceleration limits the regenerative braking. Gradually depress and release the accelerator pedal when
accelerating or decelerating to maintain speed.
• If you operate the air conditioner or heater too much, the high voltage battery uses excessive electricity. This may reduce the distance to empty. Therefore, set the cabin
temperature to 72 °F (22 °C) AUTO level 2. Various assessment tests have been used to
verify that this setting maintains optimal energy consumption rates. Especially in
winter, reducing heating and using heated seats instead can significantly increase the
distance to empty. Turn off the air conditioner or heater if you do not need them.
• When using the air conditioner or heater, the energy consumption is reduced if recirculation mode is selected instead of fresh mode. Fresh mode requires a large
amount of energy consumption as the outside air has to be reheated or cooled.
• Close the windows while driving. Driving with the windows open increases air resistance and the usage of the air conditioner or heater.
• When using the air conditioner or heater while driving alone, use the DRIVER ONLY function.
• Always maintain specified tire pressures and use tires for electric vehicles.
• Do not use unnecessary electrical components while driving.
• Do not load unnecessary items in the vehicle.
• Do not mount parts that may increase air resistance.
When the distance to empty is insufficient
• When the High voltage battery level warning light is displayed, immediately charge the vehicle at a nearby charging station.
• Drive energy efficiently following the “Tips for enhancing the distance to empty.”
• When the battery level is 0 %, do not try to drive. Move to a safe place and call for help.

Checking the real time energy status (CHARGE/POWER gauge)
The CHARGE/POWER gauge displays the charging and discharging status of the electric
energy produced by the regenerative braking and the energy consumption of the electric
motor.
B0002902
•CHARGE : Shows the charging status of the electric motor when vehicle is decelerating
or driving on a downhill road (being charged by the regenerative brakes). The more
electric energy is charged, the lower the gauge level.
• POWER : Shows discharging status of the electric motor when vehicle is accelerating or
driving on an uphill road. The more electric energy is discharged (used), the higher the
gauge level.
Checking the State of Charge (SOC)
The SOC indicator is displayed at the bottom of the CHARGE/POWER gauge and shows
the charge level of the high voltage battery as a percentage. The lower the number, the
more the vehicle needs to be charged, and 100 % indicates a full charge.

• 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
meaning of the warning and indicator lights referring to the instructions below and drive
safely.
CAUTION If the warning light illuminates while driving or does not go off, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
