INSTRUMENT CLUSTER

ALWAYS CHECK THE OWNER’S MANUAL FOR COMPLETE OPER ATING INFORMATION AND SAFET Y WARNINGS. *IF EQUIPPED5
Ready indicator light – Illuminates
when the vehicle is ready to drive.
When the ready indicator light is OFF or
blinking, a malfunction has occurred.
Have an authorized Kia dealer address
the concern as soon as possible.
EV Service warning light – Illuminates
when there is a malfunction related
to the electric vehicle control system.
Have an authorized Kia dealer address
the concern as soon as possible.
Power down warning light –
Illuminates when the power is limited
for the safety of the electric vehicle.
Charging indicator light – Shows the
charging status of the high-voltage
battery. When charging, the red
indicator turns on. The indicator turns
off when not charging.
High-voltage battery level warning
light – Illuminates when the high-
voltage battery charge level is
insufficient.
Regenerative brake warning lights
(when both indicators are lit) –
Illuminates when the regenerative brake
system is not functioning correctly.
Electric Vehicle (EV) Indicators
A State of Charge (SOC) gauge
The State of Charge gauge displays the high-
voltage battery charge status.
•L (low) position on the gauge indicates that
the driving battery energy is low
•H (high) position on the gauge indicates that
the driving battery is fully charged
B Power / Charge Gauge
Niro EV’s Power / Charge gauge provides
information on the energy consumption rate
of the vehicle and the charge status of the
regenerative brakes.
•POWER – Shows the energy consumption
rate of the vehicle when driving uphill or
accelerating. The more electric energy used,
the higher the gauge level
•CHARGE – Shows the charging status of
the battery when it is being charged by
the regenerative brakes. The more electric
energy charged, the lower the gauge level
C Remaining Distance
Remaining Distance is the estimated distance
the vehicle can be driven with the remaining
high-voltage battery level. It is displayed
differently according to the selected drive mode.
For more information, refer to the Owner’s Manual.
Energy Consumption
There are several factors that contribute to
your electric vehicle’s energy consumption,
including maintenance of your vehicle, driving
style, environmental conditions, vehicle weight
and vehicle aerodynamics.
Below are tips on how to help reduce energy
consumption:
•Keep your vehicle in good condition
with regular maintenance
•Don’t “ride” the brake pedal
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating
smoothly and at a moderate rate
•Keep tires inflated to the recommended
pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary
weight in your vehicles
•Ensure wheels are aligned correctly
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on
roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained
roads
•Use ECO or ECO+ Drive Modes in certain
weather conditions (rain, snow, wind)
For more information, refer to section 6 of the Owner’s Manual.

Low Battery Warning – When the high-voltage
battery level reaches 8% or less, this warning
message appears on the LCD and the warning
indicator light on the instrument cluster
illuminates. Charge the high-voltage battery
immediately.
Power limited due to low EV battery
temperature. Charge battery – When the outside
temperature is low and you turn the vehicle on
or off, this warning message may appear on the
LCD. If the battery level is low and the vehicle is
parked outside for a long time, vehicle power may
be limited. Charging battery before driving helps
increase power.
Stop vehicle and check power supply – When
there is a failure in the power supply system, this
warning message appears on the LCD. Park
the vehicle in a safe location and have it towed to
the nearest Kia dealer for inspection.
EV Battery Overheated! Stop Vehicle – When
the high-voltage battery temperature is too high,
this warning message will appear on the LCD.
Stop the vehicle and turn off the Power button so
that the battery temperature decreases.
Charge immediately. Power limited – When
the high-voltage battery level reaches 3% or
less, this warning message appears on the LCD,
the warning indicator light on the instrument
cluster illuminates and the power down warning
light turns ON simultaneously.
The vehicle’s power will be reduced to minimize
the energy consumption of the high-voltage
battery. Charge the high-voltage battery
immediately.
Power limited – This warning message appears
when the vehicle’s power is limited due to the
following reasons:
•When the high-voltage battery is below a
certain level, or voltage is decreasing
•When the temperature of the motor or high-
voltage battery is too high or too low
•When there is a problem with the cooling system
or a failure that may interrupt normal driving
