Charging the Plug-In Hybrid Vehicle (Plug-In Hybrid Only)
Level 1 Charging – “Trickle” Charge
A Level 1 or “trickle” charger is the most common type of charging system for a Plug-In Hybrid. This type of
charger uses 110 volts of household electricity and takes up to 9 hours for a full charge.
Trickle Charger Indicators:
A 12 0 VA C plug
B Power – When the charger and AC plug is
plugged in and functioning normally, the
indicator will turn green. Indicator is red if plug
temperature sensor warning is present
C Charge – Indicates that the vehicle is charging
D Fault – Indicates charge failure
E Charge Level – Indicates the level of charge:
L (8A), M (10A), or H (12A)
F ICCB – In-Cable Control Box
REMINDER: Do not use an extension cord. Plug trickle charger directly into wall socket. Do not charge to a receptacle that is old, damaged, corroded or cracked.
Level 2 Charging – “Normal” Charge
A Level 2 or “normal” 240-volt charger is the recommended charging system for the Plug-In Hybrid.
This type of charger uses 240 volts of electricity and takes approximately 2.5-3 hours for a full charge
(Based on Kia Motors Corporation testing with SAE J1772 charger performed at 3.3kW ). This charger
may be able to be installed at your home or found at a public charging station.
REMINDER: Shape of charger and how to use the charger may be different for each manufacturer. Please see Owner’s Manual for more information.
A Level 2 or “normal” 240-volt charger is recommended for regular charging of the vehicle.
QUICK TIP
REMINDER: For more detail and/or subsequent steps in charging your vehicle, please see the Owner's Manual.

Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Departure Warning are not substitutes for safe driving and may not always alert the driver if the vehicle is driven outside of its lane. Always drive safely and use caution.
For illustrative purposes only. Your actual display, buttons and/or features may vary.
Actual User Settings steps may vary by model. Refer to section 4 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)*†6
Lane Keeping Assist (LK A) is designed to detect the lane markers on the road with a front view camera on the windshield, and may
assist the driver’s steering to potentially help keep the vehicle in the lane. When turned on, the instrument cluster indicator
will initially illuminate white when turned on. It will remain white when the vehicle is traveling slower than 40 mph or when the
system does not detect the lane markers. When the system detects the lane markers and can assist the steering, the LK A icon will
illuminate green.
If the LK A detects that you are moving outside of your lane, the system may give an audible warning and display Lane Departure
Warning on the instrument cluster. If the vehicle continues to move outside of the lane, LK A may provide steering inputs, trying to
prevent the vehicle from moving outside its lane.
LK A is the operating mode by default when the Lane Safety/LK A button* A is depressed to ON.
There are three available modes:
• Active LK A – Provides more frequent steering inputs than standard LK A
• Lane Keeping Assist – Guides driver to keep vehicle within lanes and provides steering inputs
when vehicle is about to deviate from the lane
• Lane Departure Warning – Alerts driver when the system detects the vehicle leaving the lane.
In this mode the system will not provide steering inputs
All systems will operate under the following conditions:
• The vehicle speed exceeds approximately 40 mph
• LK A recognizes both sides of the lane markers the vehicle is traveling in
• The vehicle is between the lane markers

Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW)*†6a
The BCW system uses radar sensors to help alert the driver
in certain situations, such as if it detects an approaching
vehicle in the driver’s blind spot before changing lanes.
The light on the BCW button A will illuminate when turned
ON. The outside rearview mirror warning lights will also
illuminate for 3 seconds.
The system will become active when the vehicle is traveling
more than approximately 20 mph and will alert the driver if
another vehicle is detected by the radar sensor.
1st-stage alert: When another vehicle is detected within
the BCW system boundary B, or when a vehicle is detected
within the boundary C approaches at a high speed, a yellow
indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors.
2nd-stage alert: When 1st-stage alert is on and the driver
activates a turn signal, a flashing yellow indicator will
illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the system
will sound an alert.
REMINDERS:
•
The BCW system will only show a warning if the vehicle speed is more than 6 mph above the surrounding vehicles
•
If the BCW is turned OFF and the ignition is cycled, the BCW system returns to ON

Driver Attention Warning is not a substitute for safe driving and may not detect all instances of inattentive driving practices. Failure to pay attention to travel conditions and vehicle operation could result in loss of vehicle control. Always drive safely and use caution.BCW is a supplemental system. Do not rely solely on this system, and always drive safely. Refer to sections 4/5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
Driver Attention Warning (DAW)*†6b
DAW monitors the driving style of the driver and, in certain
situations, can give a warning signal for the driver to take a
break from driving.

on and then select User Settings in the LCD Display on the
Instrument Cluster. Then go to Driving Assist and select Driver
Attention Warning. Set DAW to Normal or High Sensitivity.

Off: The DAW is deactivated D
Normal: The DAW alerts the driver of his/her fatigue level or
inattentive driving practices
High Sensitivity: The DAW alerts the driver of his/her fatigue
level or inattentive driving practices faster than Normal mode
If the DAW is activated, the DAW information will appear on the
LCD Display E when you select the ASSIST mode .
A message, “Consider taking a break,” appears on the LCD
display and a warning sounds to suggest that the driver take a
break when the driver’s attention level is below one bar F.
