VeHiCle modiFiCaTions
• This vehicle should not be modified. Modification of your vehicle could affect its
performance, safety or durability and may even violate governmental safety and
emissions regulations.
In addition, damage or performance problems resulting from any modification may
not be covered under warranty.
• If you use unauthorized electronic devices, it may cause the vehicle to operate
abnormally, wire damage, battery discharge and fire.
VeHiCle daTa ColleCTion and eVenT daTa reCorders
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of
an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as: • How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/ fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a
non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location)
are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the
EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties,
such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if
they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

Charge Management
OOSEV040529L
Select ‘EV ÞCharge management’ on
the screen. You can set the date and time
of when to charge the battery, climate
control temperature, location-based
charging options and other various functions.
Charging and climate
OOSEV040530L
You can set the date and time of when
to charge the battery and the climate
control temperature. Also, you may
select the time to start charging using
the off-peak time setting.
OOSEV040531L
Departure time
1. Set anticipated departure time for scheduled charging and target
temperature.
2. Select the day of the week to activate scheduled charging and target
temperature for departure time.
OOSEV040532L
Target temperature settings
1. Set target temperature.
Pre-schedule heating
If the target temperature (1) is set
with the cable connected, the cabin
temperature will be adjusted to the
target temperature at departure time
(without loss of high-voltage battery
charging level). In cold weather, pre-
schedule heating helps enhance electric
vehicle performance by heating the
vehicle in advance.

Virtual Engine Sound System
The Virtual Engine Sound System
generates engine sound for pedestrians
to hear vehicle sound because there is
no sound while the Electric Vehicle (EV)
is operating. • If the vehicle is in the ready (
)
mode and the gear is not in P (Park),
the VESS will be operated.
• When the gear is shifted to R
(Reverse), an additional warning
sound will be heard.
CAUTION
• The vehicle is much quieter while
driving than a conventional gasoline-
powered vehicle. Be aware of your
surroundings and always drive safely.
• After you park the vehicle or while
you are waiting at a traffic light,
check whether there are children or
obstacles around the vehicle.
• Check if there is something behind
the vehicle when driving in reverse.
Pedestrians may not hear the sound
of the vehicle.
Distance to Empty
OOSEV040486L
The location of where the vehicle range
is displayed is different depending on
which drive mode is active.
For more details, refer to “Drive Mode
System” in chapter 5.
When destination is not set • On average, a vehicle can drive
about 400 km (250 miles). Under
certain circumstances where the air
conditioner/heater is ON, the range
is affected, resulting in a possible
distance range from 335~500 km
(210~310 miles). When using the
heater during cold weather or driving
at high speed, the high voltage battery
consumes a lot more electricity. This
may reduce the range significantly.
• After “---” has been displayed,
the vehicle can drive an additional
3~8 km (2~5 miles) depending on
driving speed, heater/air conditioner,
weather, driving style, and other
factors.

Power/Charge Gauge
OOSEV040474L
The Power/Charge Gauge shows the
energy consumption rate of the vehicle
and the charge/discharge status of the
regenerative brakes. • POWER :
This portion of the gauge indicates the
amount of electrical power supplied to
the EV motor while driving. • CHARGE :
This portion of the gauge indicates the
amount of charging to the EV battery
when regenerative braking is applied.
State of charge (SOC) gauge for
high voltage battery
OOSEV040495L
• The SOC gauge shows the charging
status of the high voltage battery.
• “L (Low)” position on the indicator
indicates that there is not enough
energy in the high voltage battery.
“(High)” position indicates that the
driving battery is fully charged.
• When driving your vehicle for long
distances on the highway or in rural
areas, make sure to check that the
State of Charge (SOC) is sufficient to
get to your destination and make sure
to map out useable charging locations
along your route.
When there are 2 gauge bars (near the “L
(Low)” on the SOC gauge, the warning
light (
) turns ON to alert you of the
battery level.
When the warning light (
) turns
ON, the vehicle can drive an additional
20~30 km (12~18 miles) depending on
the driving speed, heater/air conditioner,
weather, driving style, and other factors.
Charging is required.
NOTICE
When there are 1-2 gauge bars left for
the high voltage battery, the vehicle
speed is limited and then eventually the
vehicle will turn OFF. Charge the vehicle
immediately.
