Energy Information
OOSEV040526L
Select ‘EV ÞEnergy information’ on the
screen.
You can check battery information and
energy consumption.
Battery information
OOSEV040527L
You can check the reachable range, total
battery power remaining, and expected
charging time for each charge type. • The distance to empty is calculated
based on the real-time electric energy
efficiency while driving. The distance
may change if the driving pattern changes.
• The distance to empty may vary
according to the change of the driving
pattern even if the same target battery
charge level is set. Energy consumption
OOSEV040528L
You can check the current energy
consumption for each system of the
vehicle.
(1) ‘Driving’ shows the total power and energy consumption of the
driving motor’s driving energy and
regenerative energy.
(2) ‘Climate’ shows the power and energy consumption which are used
by the heater or air conditioner.
(3) ‘Electronics’ shows the power and energy consumption which are used
by the vehicle systems including the
cluster, infotainment system (speaker
and navigation), headlamp, vehicle
control unit, etc.
(4) ‘Battery care’ shows the momentary
power and energy consumption
which are used when: • Operating the winter mode to
increase the battery temperature
during winter to improve the driving
performance.
• Cooling down the battery
temperature during summer to
prevent over temperature of the
battery.

How to set the charging rate of the
portable charger
OAEE046506N
PlugElectric Outlet
Charging an electric vehicle at home can
stress the household electrical system
more than a typical household appliance.
Most modern residential electrical
circuits are rated at 15 or 20 amps. The
EV portable charger is rated to supply a
12A continuous load. To avoid tripping
a fuse or breaker in the household, the
portable charger charging rate can be
reduced. Follow the steps below to set
the charging rate of the portable charger.
1. Check the current output of the electrical outlet prior to connecting
the portable charger in order to
determine the permissible charging
rate.
2. Connect the plug to a household electric outlet.
3. Check the LED display on the portable charger controller. The indicator 8A,
10A or 12A will be displayed.OOSEVQ018054
4. The charging rate (amps) can be
adjusted on the portable charger
controller. Press the button (1) on the
back of the controller.
5. The charging rate (12A, 10A, 8A) on the LED display changes each time you
press the button. Refer to the table to
adjust the charging rate based on the
electrical outlet current output.
6. When the charging rate is set, follow the procedure in the next section to
connect your vehicle.

Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.
Even when buckled up, the protections
of your restraint system (seat belts and/
or air bags) are greatly reduced by
reclining your seatback.
WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined seatback
when the vehicle is moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of serious or fatal
injuries in the event of a collision or
sudden stop.
Drivers and passengers should ALWAYS
sit well back in their seats, properly
belted, and with the seatbacks upright.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly. When
the seatback is reclined, the shoulder
belt cannot do its job because it will not
be snug against your chest. Instead,
it will be in front of you. During an
accident, you could be thrown into the
seat belt, causing neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined,
the greater chance the passenger’s hips will slide under the lap belt or the
passenger’s neck will strike the shoulder belt.

Seat warmers and air ventilation
seats
Front seat warmers (if equipped)
Seat warmers are provided to warm the
seats during cold weather.
WARNING
The seat warmers can cause a SERIOUS
BURN, even at low temperatures and
especially if used for long periods of time.
Passengers must be able to feel if the
seat is becoming too warm so they can
turn it off, if needed.
People who cannot detect temperature
change or pain to the skin should
use extreme caution, especially the
following types of passengers: • Infants, children, elderly or disabled
persons, or hospital outpatients.
• People with sensitive skin or who
burn easily.
• Fatigued individuals.
• Intoxicated individuals.
• People taking medication that can
cause drowsiness or sleepiness.
WARNING
NEVER place anything on the seat
that insulates against heat when the
seat warmer is in operation, such as a
blanket or seat cushion. This may cause
the seat warmer to overheat, causing a
burn or damage to the seat.

Safety system

Front air ventilation seat (if equipped)
OOSEV030008L
The air ventilation seats are provided
to cool the front seats by blowing air
through small vent holes on the surface
of the seat cushions and seatbacks.
When the operation of the air ventilation
seat is not needed, keep the switches in the OFF position.
While the vehicle is running, push the
switch to cool the driver’s seat or the
front passenger’s seat (if equipped). • Each time you push the switch, the
airflow changes as follows:
OFF
LOW ( )HIGH ( )
MIDDLE ( )
• When pressing the switch for
more than 1.5 seconds with the
air ventilation seat operating, the
operation will turn Off.
• The air ventilation seats default to the
OFF position whenever the START/
STOP button is placed to the ON position.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the air ventilation
seat: • Use the air ventilation seat ONLY
when the climate control system
is on. Using the air ventilation seat
for prolonged periods of time with
the climate control system off could
cause the air ventilation seat to malfunction.
• Never use a solvent such as paint
thinner, benzene, alcohol or gasoline
to clean the seats.
• Avoid spilling liquids on the surface
of the front seats and seatbacks;
this may cause the air vent holes
to become blocked and not work
properly.
• Do not place materials such as
plastic bags or newspapers under
the seats. They may block the air
intake causing the air vents to not
work properly.
• Do not change the seat covers. It may
damage the air ventilation seat.
• If the air vents do not operate, restart
the vehicle. If there is no change,
we recommend that you have your
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

steering wheel
Electric power steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the vehicle is off or if
the power steering system becomes
inoperative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
Also, the steering effort becomes heavier
as the vehicle’s speed increases and
becomes lighter as the vehicle’s speed
decreases for better control of the
steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend that
the system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
• If the Electric Power Steering System
does not operate normally, the
warning light (
) will illuminate
or blink on the instrument cluster.
The steering wheel may become
difficult to control or operate. We
recommend to contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer to have the system
checked as soon as possible.
• When abnormality is detected in
the electric power steering system,
to prevent a deadly accident, the
steering assist function will stop. At
this time, the warning light turns on
or blinks on the cluster. The steering
wheel may become difficult to
control or operate. Have your vehicle
checked immediately, after moving
the vehicle to a safe zone.
Information
The following symptoms may occur during normal vehicle operation: • The steering effort may be high
immediately after placing the START/
STOP button in the ON position. This happens as the system performs
the EPS system diagnostics. When
the diagnostics are completed, the
steering wheel will return to its normal condition.
• When the battery voltage is low, you
might have to put more steering effort.
However, it is a temporary condition so
that it will return to normal condition
after charging the battery.
• A click noise may be heard from the
EPS relay after the START/STOP
button is placed in the ON or OFF position.
• Motor noise may be heard when the
vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving speed.
• When you operate the steering wheel
in low temperatures, abnormal noise
may occur. If the temperature rises, the
noise will disappear. This is a normal condition.
• When the vehicle is stationary, if you turn the steering wheel all the way
to the left or right continuously, the
steering wheel effort increases. This
is not a system malfunction. As time passes, the steering wheel effort will
return to its normal condition.
