6. Remove the charging port dustcover (1).
7. Inspect the charging port to make sure it is free from any dust or
debris.
8. Hold the charging connector han- dle firmly and insert the connector
into the charging port all the way.
If the connector is not completely
inserted into the charging port,
arcing may occur. This may cause
a fire.

10. Check to see that the charging
indicator light in the instrument
cluster is illuminated. Charging
has not been initiated if the
charging indicator light is OFF.
If the charging indicator light is
OFF, it may be necessary to dis-
connect the charging connector
from the vehicle and repeat the
connection process.
Information
Note that the vehicle cannot be shifted
out of Park (P) when the vehicle is
charging. 11. After charging has started, the
estimated charging time is dis-
played 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 dura-
bility of the high voltage battery,
charger specifications, and ambient
temperature, the time required for
charging the battery may vary.

1. Hold the charging connector han-dle and pull it while pressing the
release button (1).
Information
To prevent charging cable theft, the
charging connector cannot be discon-
nected from the charging port when the
doors are locked. Unlock all doors to
disconnect the charging connector from
the charging port. However, if the vehi-
cle is in the charging connector AUTO
mode, the charging connector automat-
ically unlocks from the charging port
when charging is completed. For more
details, refer to "Charging Connector
AUTO/LOCK Mode" in this chapter. 2. Make sure to re-install the charg-
ing port dust cover(s) before clos-
ing the charging door.
3. The charging door must be fully closed before driving the vehicle. 4. Disconnect the plug from the
household electric outlet. Do not
pull the cable when disconnecting
the plug.
5. Re-apply the protective dust cover for the charging connector so that
foreign material cannot get into
the terminal.
6. Carefully wrap the cord and store the portable charger inside the
carrying case when you are fin-
ished charging.

Charging Connector Manual
Release
If for some reason the charging con-
nector fails to disconnect normally,
the connector may be released man-
ually using the Charging Connector
Manual Release. Open the hood and
slightly pull the manual release
shown in the figure. The charging
connector can then be disconnected.
Precautions When Using thePortable Charger
Use the portable charger that is
certified by HYUNDAI.
Do not try to repair, disassemble, or adjust the portable charger.
Do not use an extension cord or adapter.
Stop using immediately when fail- ure occurs.
Do not touch the plug and charging connector with wet hands.
Do not touch the terminal part of the AC charging connector and the
AC charging port on the vehicle.
Do not connect the charging con- nector to voltage that does not
comply with regulations.
Do not use the portable charger if it is worn, if any of the wiring is
exposed, or if there are any signs of
damage to the cable or connector.
Do not let children operate or touch the portable charger.
Do not let the controller to be in contact with water. Keep the normal charging connec-
tor or plug terminal free of foreign
substances.
Do not step on the cable or cord. Do not pull the cable or cord and
do not twist or bend it.
Do not attempt to charge the vehi- cle outside during inclement
weather when there is the possibil-
ity of lightning.
Do not drop the controller or place heavy objects on the equipment.
Do not place an object that can generate high temperatures near
the charger when charging.
Before plugging into any electrical outlet, have a qualified electrician
inspect and verify the household
electrical system for heavy duty
service at a 12 amp continuous
load.
Stop using the portable charger immediately if the household elec-
tric outlet or any components
becomes overheated or has a
burning smell.

EV Charging Troubleshooting - Steps to Consider
If the vehicle fails to charge after being plugged in to a charging station or if plugge\
d in when using the portable charger,
check the following:
1. Verify the charge mode is set to immediate. (i.e. confirm that scheduled charging is turned OFF)
2. Check the operation status of the charging station or the portable charger.
3. Check to see if there are any warning messages in the LCD cluster. Refer to "LCD Display Messages" in this sec- tion.
4. If there is an error message on the charging station display screen, there may be a problem with the charging sta- tion. Try to charge the vehicle with a different charging station.
5. If the vehicle fails to charge with different charging station equipment, there may be a problem with the vehicle. Contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for inspection.

When destination is not set
On average, a vehicle can drive
about 250 miles (400 km). Under
certain circumstances where the
air conditioner/heater is ON, the
range is affected, resulting in a
possible distance range from
210~310 miles (335~500 km).
When using the heater during cold
weather or driving at high speed,
the high voltage battery consumes
a lot more electricity. This may
reduce the range significantly.
After "---" has been displayed, the vehicle can drive an additional 2~5
miles (3~8 km) depending on driv-
ing speed, heater/air conditioner,
weather, driving style, and other
factors.
The range that is displayed on the instrument cluster after completing
a recharge may vary significantly
depending on previous driving pat-
terns.
When the previous driving patterns
include aggressive or high speed
driving (e.g. predominantly high-
way miles, etc.), the estimated
range on the next full charge will be
lower than normal. When the previous driving patterns
are predominantly mild or econom-
ical (e.g. city driving), the estimated
range on the next full charge will be
increased.
Calculated range may depend on many factors such as the charge
amount of the high voltage battery,
weather, temperature, durability of
the battery, geographical features,
and driving style.
Natural degradation may occur with the high voltage battery
depending on the number of years
the vehicle is used. This may
reduce the vehicle range.
Navigation - When a Destinationis Set
When a destination is set using the
vehicle navigation system (if
equipped), the vehicle range may
change. The vehicle range is recalcu-
lated using the destination route infor-
mation. While driving, the range may
vary based on traffic conditions, driv-
ing pattern and vehicle settings, etc.
Tips for Improving Range
When Using the Climate
Control System
Operating the climate control sys-
tem consumes electrical energy
from the EV battery. Continuous use
may reduce the vehicle range.
When using the climate control sys-
tem, it is recommended to set the
control to 72°F (22°C) AUTO. The
climate control system has been
optimized to operate at this setting
for maximum comfort and efficiency.
When possible, use the DRIVER ONLY feature on the climate control
system. This will discontinue airflow
to the passenger side and reduces
climate control power consumption.

H47
Tips for Improving Range
While Driving
Depress and hold the acceleratorpedal to maintain speed and drive
economically.
Gradually depress and release the accelerator pedal when accelerat-
ing or decelerating.
Always maintain specified tire pressures.
Do not use unnecessary electrical components while driving.
Do not load unnecessary items in the vehicle.
Do not mount parts that may increase air resistance.
Power/Charge Gauge
The Power/Charge gauge shows the
energy consumption rate of the vehi-
cle and the charge/discharge status
of the regenerative brakes.
POWER :
This portion of the gauge indicates
the amount of electrical power sup-
plied to the EV motor while driving.

This portion of the gauge indicates
the amount of charging to the EV
battery when regenerative braking is
applied.
State of Charge (SOC) Gauge
for High Voltage Battery
The SOC gauge shows the charg-ing status of the high voltage bat-
tery.
"L (Low)" position on the indicator
indicates that there is not enough
energy in the high voltage battery.
"H (High)" position indicates that
the driving battery is fully charged.
When driving your vehicle for long distances on the highway or in rural
areas, make sure to check that the
State of Charge (SOC) is sufficient
to get to your destination and make
sure to map out useable charging
locations along your route.
