CAUTION
• Always keep the charging connector
and charging plug in clean and
dry condition. Be sure to keep the
charging cable in a condition where
there is no water or moisture.
• Make sure to use the designated
charger for charging the electric
vehicle. Using any other charger may
cause failure.
• Before charging the battery, turn the
vehicle OFF
• When the vehicle is switched OFF
while charging, the cooling fan
inside the motor compartment may
automatically operate. Do not touch
the cooling fan while charging.
• Be careful not to drop the charging
connector. The charging connector
can be damaged.
WARNING
• Immediately stop charging when
you find abnormal symptoms (odor,
smoke).
• Replace the charging cable if the
cable coating is damaged to prevent
electrical shock.
• When connecting or removing the
charging cable, make sure to hold
the charging connector handle and
charging plug.
If you pull the cable itself (without
using the handle), the internal wires
may disconnect or get damaged. This
may lead to electric shock or fire.

7. Check if the charging indicator light of the high voltage battery
on the instrument cluster is turned
ON. Charging is not done when the
charging indicator lamp is OFF.
When the charging connector and
charging plug are not connected
properly, reconnect the charging
cable to charge.
Information
• Even though charging is possible with
the ignition switch in the ON/START
position, for your safety, start charging
when the ignition switch is in the
LOCK/OFF position and the vehicle
shifted to P (Park). After charging
has started, you can use electrical
components such as the radio by
placing the ignition switch in the ACC
or ON position.
• During AC charging, the radio
reception may be bad.
• Moving the shift button from P (Park)
to R (Reverse)/N(Neutral)/D (Drive)
stops the charging process.
To restart the charging process, move
the shift button to P (Park), place the
ignition switch to the LOCK/OFF
position, and disconnect the charging
cable. Then, connect the charging cable.

8. After charging has started, the estimated charging time is displayed
on the instrument cluster for about 1
minute.
If you open the driver seat door while
charging, the estimated charging time
is also displayed on the instrument
cluster for about 1 minute.
When scheduled charging is set, the
estimated charging time is displayed
as “--” .
Information
Depending on the condition and durability
of the high voltage battery, charger
specifications, and ambient temperature,
the time required for charging the battery
may vary.
Information
To control the temperature of the high
voltage battery while charging or when
the battery temperature is high, the air
conditioner is used to cool down the
battery. It may generate noise or vibration
from operation of the air conditioner
compressor and cooling fan, but it is a
normal condition when charging the high
voltage battery. Also, the air conditioner’s
performance may be degraded due to
operation of the cooling system to charge
the high voltage battery. This is a normal
condition.
Checking Charging Status

When charging the high voltage battery,
the charge level can be checked from
outside the vehicle.
