The HYUNDAI Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) uses both the gasoline engine and the electric motor for power. The elec-
tric motor is run by a high-voltage HEV battery.
Depending on the driving conditions, the HEV computer selectively operates between the engine and the electric motor
or even both at the same time.
Fuel efficiency increases when the engine is off at idle, or when the vehicle is driven by the electric motor with the HEV
battery.
The HEV battery charge must be maintained, so at times the engine will come on even at idle to act as a generator.
Charging also occurs when decelerating or by regenerative braking.

Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle
The HYUNDAI Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) shares the characteristics of both a conventional hybrid elec-
tric vehicle and an all-electric vehicle.
When used as a conventional hybrid electric vehicle, the HEV computer selectively operates between the engine and
the electric motor or even both at the same time.
When it is operating in the electric vehicle mode, the vehicle is driven only using the electric motor over a certain dis-
tance until the hybrid battery becomes low. The driving distance in EV mode depends on customer driving style and
road conditions. Aggressive driving maneuvers may at times temporarily enable the engine to operate for maximum
power.
The hybrid battery can be fully charged by connecting a plug to an external electric power source.

Charging Information
•Normal Charge :
The plug-in hybrid vehicle is
charged by plugging into a normal
charger installed in your home or a
public charging station. (For further
details, refer to the 'Normal
Charge'.)
Trickle Charge :
The plug-in hybrid vehicle can be
charged by using household elec-
tricity. The electrical outlet in your
home must comply with regulations
and can safely accommodate the
Voltage / Current (Amps) / Power
(Watts) ratings specified on the
portable charge.
Charging Time Information
Normal Charge :
Takes approximately 2 hours 15
minutes at room temperature. (Can

the charging inlet. The connector is
locked until all doors are unlocked
by the driver. This mode can be
used to prevent charging cable
theft.
- If the charging connector isunlocked when all doors are
unlocked, but the charging cable
is not disconnected within 10 sec-
onds, the connector will be auto-
matically locked again.
- If the charging connector is unlocked when all doors are
unlocked, but all doors are locked
again, immediately, the connector
will be automatically locked again. AUTO mode (button indicator on) :

Scheduled Charging
(if equipped)
You can set-up a charging sched-ule for your vehicle using the AVN
or BlueLink application.
Refer to the Multimedia manual or
the BlueLink manual for detailed
information about setting sched-
uled charging.
Scheduled charging can only be done when using a normal charger
or the portable charger (ICCB: In-
Cable Control Box). When scheduled charging is set
and the normal charger or the
portable charger (ICCB: In-Cable
Control Box) is connected for
charging, the indicator lamp in the
middle blinks (for 3 minutes) to
indicate that scheduled charging is
set.
When scheduled charging is set, charging is not initiated immediate-
ly when the normal charger or
portable charger (ICCB: In-Cable
Control Box) is connected. When
immediate charging is required,
use the AVN to deactivate the
scheduled charge setting or press
scheduled charging deactivation
( ) button. If you press the scheduled charg-
ing deactivation ( ) button to
immediately charge the battery,
charging must be initiated 3 min-
utes after the charging cable has
been connected.
When you press the scheduled
charging deactivation ( ) button
for immediate charging, the sched-
uled charge setting is not com-
pletely deactivated. If you need to
completely deactivate the sched-
uled charge setting, use the AVN
to finalize the deactivation.
Refer to "Normal Charge or Trickle
Charge" for details about connecting
the normal charger and the portable
charger (ICCB: In-Cable Control Box).
