HEV (HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE) SYSTEM
The HYUNDAI Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) uses both the gasoline engine and the
electric motor for power. The electric 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 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.

Foreword/Starting your Hybrid/Plug-in hybrid vehicle1-10
The HYUNDAI Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) shares the characteristics of both
a conventional hybrid electric 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 distance until the hybrid battery becomes low. The
driving distance in EV mode depends on customer driving style and road conditions.
Aggressive driving maneuvers or in need of diagnosis for emission related parts, may
enable the engine to operate. However, engine power can be limited during emission
reduction control period in cold engine condition.
The hybrid battery can be fully charged by connecting a plug to an external electric
power source.

Charging Information
AC Charge:
The plug-in hybrid vehicle is charged by
plugging into a AC charger installed in
your home or a public charging station.
(For further details, refer to the ‘AC
Charge’.)
Trickle Charge:
The plug-in hybrid vehicle can be
charged by using household electricity.
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
AC Charge:
Takes approximately 2 hours 15 minutes
at room temperature. (Can be charged to
100%.)
Information
Depending on the condition and durability
of the high voltage battery, charger
specifications, and ambient temperature,
the time required for charging the high
voltage battery may vary.

Scheduled Charging
(if equipped)
• You can set-up a charging schedule for your vehicle using the
infotainment system or BlueLink
application.
Refer to the infotainment system
manual or the BlueLink manual for
detailed information about setting
scheduled charging.
• Scheduled charging can only be done when using a AC charger or
the portable charger (ICCB: InCable
Control Box).
ONX4EPHQ011020LONX4EPHQ011020L
• When scheduled charging is set and the AC 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 immediately
when the AC charger or portable
charger (ICCB: In-Cable Control
Box) is connected. When immediate
charging is required, use the
infotainment system to deactivate
the scheduled charge setting or press
scheduled charging deactivation (
)
button.
ONX4EPHQ011021LONX4EPHQ011021L
• If you press the scheduled charging deactivation () button
to immediately charge the battery,
charging must be initiated 3 minutes
after the charging cable has been
connected. When you press the
scheduled charging deactivation
(
) button for immediate charging,
the scheduled charge setting is not
completely deactivated. If you need to
completely deactivate the scheduled
charge setting, use the infotainment
system to finalize the deactivation.
Refer to “AC Charge (Station) or Trickle
Charge” for details about connecting
the AC charger and the portable charger
(ICCB: In-Cable Control Box).

Charging Precautions
„„AC ChargerAC Charger
OLFP0Q5007KOLFP0Q5007K
Actual charger image and charging
method may vary in accordance with the
charger manufacturer.
WARNING
• Electromagnetic waves that are
generated from the charger can
seriously impact medical electric
devices such as an implantable
cardiac pacemaker.
When using medical electric devices
such as an implantable cardiac
pacemaker, make sure to ask the
medical team and manufacturer
whether charging your electric
vehicle will impact the operation of
the medical electric devices such as
an implantable cardiac pacemaker.
• Check to make sure there is no
water or dust on the charging
cable connector and plug before
connecting to the charger and
charging inlet. Connecting while
there is water or dust on the charging
cable connector and plug may cause
a fire or electric shock.
• Be careful not to touch the charging
connector, charging plug, and the
charging inlet when connecting
the cable to the charger and the
charging inlet on the vehicle. •
Comply with the following in order
to prevent electrical shock when
charging:
- Use a waterproof charger.
- Be careful when touching the
charging connector and charging
plug with your hands wet, or when
standing in water or snow while
connecting the charging cable.
- Be careful when there is lightning.
- Be careful when the charging
connector and plug is wet.
• Immediately stop charging when
you find abnormal symptoms (odor,
smoke).
• Replace the charging cable if the
cable coating is damaged to prevent
electrical shock.
• When connecting or removing the
charging cable, make sure to hold
the charging connector handle and
charging plug.
If you pull the cable itself (without
using the handle), the internal wires
may disconnect or get damaged. This
may lead to electric shock or fire.

CAUTION
• Always keep the charging connector
and charging plug in clean and
dry condition. Be sure to keep the
charging cable in a condition where
there is no water or moisture.
• Make sure to use the designated
charger for charging the electric
vehicle. Using any other charger may
cause failure.
• Before charging the battery, turn the
vehicle OFF
• When the vehicle is switched OFF
while charging, the cooling fan
inside the motor compartment may
automatically operate. Do not touch
the cooling fan while charging.
• Be careful not to drop the charging
connector. The charging connector
can be damaged.
