Distance to Empty (DTE) or Range E is the estimated distance an EV can be driven with the remaining electric energy until the battery reaches zero. DTE can vary depending on the selected drive mode, current driving conditions, traffic, driving patterns, air conditioner or heater use, and how much cargo you are carrying.

Your vehicle’s instrument cluster & indicator light locations may differ from those in the illustrations. For more information on the instrument cluster, the LCD Warning Messages and the function of all indicator and warning lights, please refer to section 5 of the Owner ’s Manual.
Illustrations are for demonstration purposes only. Some indicators and warning lights may not appear in illustrations. On the vehicle, they may appear in the LCD.

REMINDERS:

If DTE displays “Zero Miles,” you need to charge the vehicle immediately

Most electric vehicles can drive an additional t wo to five miles depending on driving conditions

Distance to empt y may depend on many factors such as the charge amount of the high voltage bat ter y, weather, temperature, durabilit y of the bat ter y, geographical features, and driving st yle
•Operating the climate control system may reduce the Distance to Empt y
•When decelerating or driving downhill, regenerative braking charges the high voltage bat ter y which minimizes energy loss and increases the Distance to Empt y or Range
•When you set a destination via the on-board navigation system, DTE is calculated based on the route selected. By set ting a final destination, DTE accuracy improves. By knowing the final location, the vehicle can bet ter predict the amount of bat ter y energy it will need to reach that destination
•When operating the climate control, use the DRIVER ONLY function to conser ve energy
•In cold weather, use scheduled heating to reduce the amount of energy consumption
•In the EV Set tings, select WINTER MODE to increase the bat ter y temperature in cold weather

Low Battery Warning – When the high-voltage battery level reaches 8% or less, this warning message appears on the LCD and the warning indicator light on the instrument cluster illuminates. Charge the high-voltage battery immediately.
Power limited due to low EV battery temperature. Charge battery – When the outside temperature is low and you turn the vehicle on or off, this warning message may appear on the LCD. If the battery level is low and the vehicle is parked outside for a long time, vehicle power may be limited. Charging battery before driving helps increase power.
Stop vehicle and check power supply – When there is a failure in the power supply system, this warning message appears on the LCD. Park the vehicle in a safe location and have it towed to the nearest Kia dealer for inspection.
EV Battery Overheated! Stop Vehicle – When the high-voltage battery temperature is too high, this warning message will appear on the LCD. Stop the vehicle and turn off the Power button so that the battery temperature decreases.
Charge immediately. Power limited – When the high-voltage battery level reaches 3% or less, this warning message appears on the LCD,
the warning indicator light on the instrument cluster illuminates and the power down warning light turns ON simultaneously.
The vehicle’s power will be reduced to minimize the energy consumption of the high-voltage battery. Charge the high-voltage battery immediately.
Power limited – This warning message appears when the vehicle’s power is limited for the following reasons:
1. When the high-voltage battery is below a
certain level, or voltage is decreasing
2. When the temperature of the motor or high-voltage battery is too high or too low
3. When there is a problem with the cooling system or a failure that may interrupt normal driving

REMINDERS:

When these warning messages are displayed, do not accelerate or star t the vehicle suddenly

All stored driving information (except Odometer and Range) is reset if the bat ter y is disconnected

EV Mode - Infotainment System
EV Mode on the Infotainment system screen allows you to navigate several menus that include information on available range, energy information, next departure setting, charging and climate info, vehicle-to-load (V2L) setting, nearby charging stations and EV settings.
EV Mode - Press the EV button on the Infotainment System screen to access the EV Mode
Available Range - Displays the available driving distance according to the vehicle’s current location and charge amount. The projected available driving distance is marked in red on the map
The estimated range is based on a number of factors and assumes optimal driving conditions, efficient driving habits and a straight road. Actual range will vary with options, driving conditions, driving habits, vehicle maintenance, charging practice, battery age, weather, temperature and your vehicle’s condition. Battery capacity will decrease with time and use. For more information on range, please see www.fueleconomy.gov
Energy Information – Displays battery charge information and electrical power consumption
Next Departure - Displays the date and time set for the next battery charge
Vehicle to Load (V2L) - Displays the battery discharge limit when powering external equipment and devices
EV Settings – Allows the user to change the Winter mode, warning and EV Route settings
See section 1 of the Owner ’s Manual or the Car Infotainment System’s Quick Reference Guide for more detailed information on screens.

Climate Control Auto Function
Press AUTO to select Full Auto Operation. The Auto setting automatically controls the air flow modes, fan speeds, air intake and air conditioning according to the temperature setting selected. Turn temperature control knob A to the desired temperature.
Auto Defogging System: Auto defogging is designed to reduce the fogging up of the inside of the windshield by automatically sensing the moisture of the inside of the windshield. The
system will automatically change to defrost mode when needed.
Auto Defogging is set ON by default. To cancel Auto Defogging, press and hold the Front Defrost button for three seconds when the vehicle power is on (the defrost button light will flash three times and the ADS OFF icon will illuminate). To turn Auto Defogging on again, press and hold the Front Defrost button again for three seconds and the defrost button light will flash 6 times and ADS OFF icon will turn off.
Driver Only Ventilation: Driver Only Ventilation restricts air flow to the driver ’s side vents only. This can help to optimize driving range by limiting the power drawn from the battery. Press DRIVER ONLY button G to enable air flow through the driver ’s side vents only.
Defrost Outside and/or Inside Windshield:
1. Set Front Fan Speed I to the highest position
2. Set Temperature to Hot A
3.
Press the Front Defrost button B
REMINDERS:

Continuous use of the climate control system in the recirculated air position may allow humidit y to increase inside the vehicle which may fog the glass and obscure visibilit y

Pressing any but ton during AUTO operation will deactivate the AUTO function and switch to manual mode, except for Temperature Control

When in AUTO mode, Air Flow mode and Fan Speed do not display on the Climate Control Display

Cold or warm ambient air may flow in through vents if Recirculated Air but ton is not pressed ON (LED lit)

Continuous use of the A /C and heater may allow the Energy Consumption to increase, especially excessive use of the heater

•Defrost mode activates A /C and opens Fresh Air Vent to help dehumidify the air and improve defog per formance
•During Auto Operation, the A /C indicator will NOT illuminate. The fan speed, air intake, air flow and air conditioning may automatically be engaged at any time to reach desired temperature and reduce humidit y
•Keep inside glass as clean as possible to reduce window fogging
