•Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) : Controls the various controllers and sensors on the
vehicle.
• Motor : Uses electricity accumulated on the high voltage battery to drive the vehicle
(same role as an engine in gasoline vehicles).
• Gear: Delivers the rotational force of the motor to the tires at appropriate speeds and
torque.
• High voltage battery (Lithium-ion battery) : Stores and supplies power necessary for
the electric vehicle to operate. (The separately installed 12 V battery provides power to
the vehicle when the vehicle is in ACC or OFF.)
WARNING • Do not remove or disassemble any high voltage battery’s connectors and wires. Doing so may lead to accidents, such as electric shock, and result in serious injury and
significantly degrade the vehicle’s performance and durability.
• When the high voltage battery or its related components require inspection and maintenance, contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Precautions When Using the High Voltage Battery
Precautions for high voltage battery when driving and storing the vehicle are as follows:
CAUTION • Keep the gauge of the high voltage battery from going below 10 %. Storing the vehicle while the battery level is too low for a long time may damage the battery or reduce the
battery’s capacity.
• If a collision occurs and the vehicle is impacted, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer and check the battery connection status.
• Using the V2L function may reduce the driving distance due to the use of high voltage battery energy, and repeated use of the V2L function may impact battery life.
• Frequent use of DC charging may impact battery life.

• The high voltage battery level may reduce naturally even if the vehicle is not driven.
• Storing the vehicle in temperatures that are too hot or cold may degrade the battery performance.
• The distance to empty or power output may vary depending on the driving conditions, such as the outside temperature. Driving on highway at high speeds or uphill will
increase battery consumption, resulting in a shorter distance to empty.
• If you use the air conditioner or heater, which is powered by the high voltage battery, the distance to empty will be reduced. Maintain reasonable temperature when using
the air conditioner or heater to maximize distance to empty.
• Depending on the vehicle’s period of use, natural degradation of the battery may occur that reduces distance to empty over long period of vehicle life. When the charge

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:

Power limitedThis warning message is
displayed when the power of
the vehicle is limited to ensure
the safety of high-powered
components for the reasons
below:
• The high voltage battery level
is too low or voltage is
decreasing.
• The temperature of the high voltage battery is too high or
too low.
• When the driving system is overheated and requires
protection. If it illuminates alone, it did not
fail.
• Charge the vehicle is the
charge level is low.
• If both Power down indicator light and Service warning
light illuminate at the same
time, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• Do not accelerate or start the vehicle suddenly when the
warning message is
displayed.
• Be careful when the Power down indicator light is
displayed. The vehicle may
not properly drive uphill and
roll back on a slope.

temperature. Power
limited If you start or turn off the
vehicle when the outside
temperature is low, both
warning messages appear to
protect electric vehicle system.
• If the high voltage battery
charge level is low and parked
outside for a long time,
vehicle power could be
limited due to the low battery
temperature. • Charging the battery before
driving helps increase power.
• If these warning messages are still displayed even after the
ambient temperature has
increased, have the vehicle
inspected and repaired by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Overheated! Stop
vehicle The high voltage battery
temperature is too high. • Stop the vehicle in a safe place
and turn off the Start/Stop
button and wait until the
battery temperature
decreases.
• If these warning messages are still displayed even after
turning off the engine and
waiting for a sufficient time,
immediately have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
