Wireless Cellular Phone
Charging System (if equipped)
ODN8059223
[A]: Indicator light, [B]: Charging pad
On certain models, the vehicle comes
equipped with a wireless cellular phone
charger.
The system is available when all doors
are closed, and when the ignition switch is ON.
To charge a cellular phone
The wireless cellular phone charging
system charges only the Qi-enabled
cellular phones. Read the label on the
cellular phone accessory cover or visit
your cellular phone manufacturer’s
website to check whether your cellular
phone supports the Qi technology.
The wireless charging process starts
when you put a Qi-enabled cellular
phone on the wireless charging unit.
1. Remove other items, including the smart key, from the wireless charging
unit. If not, the wireless charging
process may be interrupted. Place
the cellular phone on the center of
the charging pad (
).
2. The indicator light is orange when the cellular phone is charging. The
indicator light turns green when
phone charging is complete.
3. You can turn ON or OFF the wireless charging function in the user settings
mode on the instrument cluster. For
further information, refer to the “LCD
Display Modes” in this chapter.
If your cellular phone is not charging:
- Slightly change the position of the cellular phone on the charging pad.
- Make sure the indicator light is orange.
The indicator light will blink orange for 10
seconds if there is a malfunction in the
wireless charging system.
In this case, temporarily stop the
charging process, and re-attempt to
charge your cellular phone again.
The system warns you with a message
on the LCD display if the cellular phone
is still on the wireless charging unit after
the engine is turned OFF and the front door is opened.
Information
For some manufacturers’ cellular phones, the system may not warn you even though
the cellular phone is left on the wireless
charging unit. This is due to the particular
characteristic of the cellular phone and
not a malfunction of the wireless charging.
NOTICE
• The wireless cellular phone charging system may not support certain
cellular phones, which are not
verified for the Qi specification (
).
• When placing your cellular phone on the charging mat, position the
phone in the middle of the mat for
optimal charging performance. If
your cellular phone is off to the side,
the charging rate may be less and in
some cases the cellular phone may
experience higher heat conduction.
• In some cases, the wireless charging may stop temporarily when the
Remote Key or Smart Key is used,
either when starting the vehicle or
locking/unlocking the doors, etc.
• When charging certain cellular phones, the charging indicator
may not change to green when the
cellular phone is fully charged.

TPMS Malfunction
Indicator
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator
will illuminate after it blinks for
approximately one minute when there
is a problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System.
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
NOTICE
If there is a malfunction with the
TPMS, the individual tire pressures
in the cluster LCD display will not be
available. Have the system checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
NOTICE
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator may
illuminate after blinking for one minute
if the vehicle is near electric power
supply cables or radio transmitters
such as police stations, government
and public offices, broadcasting
stations, military installations, airports,
transmitting towers, etc.
Additionally, the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator may illuminate if snow chains
are used or electronic devices such as
computers, chargers, remote starters,
navigation, etc. This may interfere with
normal operation of the TPMS.
Changing a Tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure and LCD position indicator will
come on. Have the flat tire repaired by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible or replace the flat tire with the
spare tire. (if equipped)
CAUTION
It is recommended that you do not use a
puncture-repairing agent not approved
by HYUNDAI dealer to repair and/or
inflate a low pressure tire. Tire sealant
not approved by HYUNDAI dealer may
damage the tire pressure sensor.
The spare tire does not come with a
tire pressure monitoring sensor. When
the low pressure tire or the flat tire is
replaced with the spare tire, the Low
Tire Pressure LCD position indicator will
remain on. Also, the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator will illuminate after blinking
for one minute if the vehicle is driven
at speed above 25 km/h (15.5 mph) for
approximately 20 minutes. Once the
original tire equipped.
Once the original tire equipped with
a tire pressure monitoring sensor is
reinflated to the recommended pressure
and reinstalled on the vehicle, the Low
Tire Pressure LCD position indicator and
TPMS Malfunction Indicator will go off
within a few minutes of driving.
If the indicators do not disappear after a
few minutes, please visit an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
