6. When charging is complete, hold the charging connector handle with the unlock button pressed and pull on the charging connector to disconnect it from the charging
inlet.
• Depending on the DC charger types, some DC chargers may not have a charger connector unlock button so it may be necessary to stop at the DC charger control
panel or by charger company's app.
CAUTION Before disconnecting the charging connector, check if there is an unlock button on the
connector handle. If the connector handle is equipped with an unlock button, forcibly
disconnecting the connector without pressing the button may damage the charging
connector or charging inlet on the vehicle.

NOTICE • For more information, refer to the “Setting charging connector locking mode” section in this chapter.

7. Close the charging inlet cover.
8. Press the charging door to completely close it.
Using a Portable Charger (ICCB)
If the vehicle cannot be moved to a public charging station, you can charge the vehicle
using a separately purchased In-Cable Control Box (ICCB) in places where general power
(AC 120 V) is supplied.
WARNING Before charging the vehicle, carefully read and follow the instructions in “Setting
charging connector locking mode” to prevent property damage or injury due to electric
shock, fire, explosion, etc.

CAUTION To prevent property damage or injury due to fire or explosion, follow the instructions
below.
• Only use a genuine HYUNDAI portable charger (if equipped).
• Do not let children operate or touch the portable charger. Doing so may lead to unexpected accidents.
• Try to avoid using an extension cord, but if you must use to reach a 120 V outlet, ensure it is a medium to heavy duty grounded extension cord rated at 15 A minimum.
• The charger power you are using must comply with regulations and safely accommodate the Voltage, Current (Amps), and Power (Watts) ratings. If not, the
vehicle may not be charged or safety hazards, such as fire, may occur.
