Main Components of Electric
Vehicle
• On-Board Charger (OBC) : A device
that charges the high voltage battery
by converting AC power from a
charging station to DC power. Inverter
: A device that transforms direct
current (DC) from the high voltage
battery into alternating current (AC)
to supply power to the electric motor
and transforms AC back into DC when
available to charge the high voltage
battery.
• LDC : An LDC is a Low Voltage DC-to-
DC converter that transforms power
from the high voltage battery to the
low voltage battery (12V) in order
to supply electrical power to the
vehicle to operate the lights, wipers,
multimedia, etc.
• Electric Motor : A device that
converts electrical energy from the
high voltage battery into mechanical
energy which is then transferred as
rotational torque to the wheels in
order to drive the vehicle.
• Reduction gear : Delivers rotational
force of the motor to the tires at
appropriate speeds and torque.
• EV Battery (Lithium-ion) : On board
high voltage storage device with a
capacity up to 64 kWh

à OBC : On-Board Charger

à LDC : Low Voltage DC-DC Converter
WARNING
• Do not intentionally remove
or disassemble high voltage
components and high voltage
battery connectors and wires. Also,
be careful not to damage high
voltage components and the high
voltage battery. It may cause serious
injury and significantly impact the
performance and durability of the
vehicle.
• When inspection and maintenance
is required for high voltage
components and the high voltage
battery, we recommend that you
contact an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
High Voltage Battery
(lithium-ion polymer)
• The charge amount of the high
voltage battery may gradually
decrease when the vehicle is not
being driven.
• The battery capacity of the high
voltage battery may decrease when
the vehicle is stored in high/low
temperatures.
• Electric range may vary depending
on the driving conditions, even if the
charge amount is the same. The high
voltage battery may expend more
energy when driving at high speed or
uphill. These actions may reduce the
vehicle electric range.
• The high voltage battery is used when
using the air-conditioner / heater. This
may reduce the vehicle range. Make
sure to set moderate temperatures
when using the air-conditioner/heater.
• Natural degradation may occur with
the high voltage battery depending
on the number of years the vehicle
is used. This may reduce the vehicle
range.

Dolly
• If towing is required, lift all four
wheels off the ground and tow the
vehicle. If you must tow the vehicle
using only two wheels, lift the front
wheels off the ground and tow the
vehicle.
If necessary to roll the vehicle so that
it can be rolled onto a flatbed tow
truck perform the following:
- First, depress the brake pedal and
release the parking brake.
- While depressing the brake pedal
shift to the N (Neutral) position and
press the POWER button to turn
the vehicle off.
- Wait 3 minutes or more before
opening the driver door and the
vehicle will remain in ACC mode
and in Neutral.
- If the driver door is opened within
the 3 minute period, the vehicle
will automatically shift to P (Park),
the vehicle will turn OFF and the
front wheels will be remained
locked.
WARNING
OOS067022
• If you tow the vehicle while the
front wheels are touching the
ground, the vehicle motor may
generate electricity and the motor
components may be damaged or a
fire may occur.
• When a vehicle fire occurs due to the
battery, there is a risk of a second
fire. Contact the fire department
when towing the vehicle.

NOTICE
• It is permissible to add 20 kPa (3 psi) to the standard tire pressure specification if
colder temperatures are expected soon. Tires typically lose 7 kPa (1 psi) for every
7°C (12°F) temperature drop. If extreme temperature variations are expected,
recheck your tire pressures as necessary to keep them properly inflated.
• As air pressure generally decreases, as you drive up to a high-altitude area above
sea level. Thus, if you plan to drive a high-altitude area, check the tire pressures in
advance. If necessary, inflate them to a proper level (Air inflation per altitude: +10
kPa/1 km (+2.4 psi/1 mile)).
CAUTION
When replacing tires, ALWAYS use the same size, type, brand, construction and
tread pattern supplied with the vehicle. If not, replaced tires can damage the related
parts or make them work irregularly.

Low Tire Pressure Warning
Light
This warning light illuminates:
•
When the START/STOP button is in the ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3 seconds and then goes off.
• When one or more of your tires are
significantly underinflated (The
location of the underinflated tires are
displayed on the LCD display).
For more details, refer to “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” in chapter 8.
This warning light remains on after
blinking for approximately 60 seconds
or repeatedly blinks on and off at
approximately 3 second intervals:
• When there is a malfunction with the TPMS.
In this case, we recommend that
you have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
For more details, refer to “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” in chapter 8.
WARNING
Safe Stopping • The TPMS cannot alert you to severe
and sudden tire damage caused by
external factors.
• If you notice any vehicle instability,
immediately take your foot off the
accelerator pedal, apply the brakes
gradually with light force, and slowly
move to a safe position off the road. Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) Indicator Light (if equipped)
This indicator light illuminates:
•
When the START/STOP button is in the ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3 seconds and then goes off.
• When there is a malfunction with the
ESC system.
In this case, we recommend that
you have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
This indicator light blinks:
• While the ESC is operating.
For more details, refer to “Electronic
Stability Control (ESC)” in chapter 6.
Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) OFF Indicator Light
This indicator light illuminates:
• When the START/STOP button is in the ON position.

Before entering the vehicle
• Be sure all windows, outside mirror(s),
and outside lights are clean and
unobstructed.
• Remove frost, snow, or ice.
• Visually check the tires for uneven
wear and damage.
• Check under the vehicle for any sign
of leaks.
• Be sure there are no obstacles behind
you if you intend to back up.
Before starting
• Make sure the hood, the tailgate, and
the doors are securely closed and
locked.
• Adjust the position of the seat and
steering wheel.
• Adjust the inside and outside rearview
mirrors.
• Verify all the lights work.
• Fasten your seat belt. Check that all
passengers have fastened their seat belt.
• Check the gauges and indicators
in the instrument panel and the
messages on the instrument display
when the START/STOP button is in the ON position.
• Check that any items you are carrying
are stored properly or fastened down
securely.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH, take the following precautions: • ALWAYS wear your seat belt. All
passengers must be properly belted
whenever the vehicle is moving.
For more information, refer to “Seat
Belts” in chapter 3.
• Always drive defensively. Assume
other drivers or pedestrians may be
careless and make mistakes.
• Stay focused on the task of driving.
Driver distraction can cause
accidents.
• Leave plenty of space between you
and the vehicle in front of you.
WARNING
NEVER drink or take drugs and drive. Drinking or taking drugs and driving
is dangerous and may result in an
accident and SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH. Drunk driving is the number one
contributor to the highway death
toll each year. Even a small amount
of alcohol will affect your reflexes,
perceptions and judgment. Just
one drink can reduce your ability to
respond to changing conditions and
emergencies and your reaction time
gets worse with each additional drink.
Driving while under the influence
of drugs is as dangerous or more
dangerous than driving under the
influence of alcohol.
You are much more likely to have a
serious accident if you drink or take
drugs and drive. If you are drinking or
taking drugs, don’t drive. Do not ride
with a driver who has been drinking
or taking drugs. Choose a designated
driver or call a taxi.
