Electric Vehicle (EV) Indicators
A Motor operation gauge
Soul EV’s motor operation gauge provides information on the
energy consumption rate of the vehicle and the charge status of the
regenerative brakes
•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
•ECO GUIDE – Shows the energy consumption rate during normal
driving conditions
•POWER – Shows the energy consumption rate of the vehicle when
driving uphill or accelerating The more electric energy used, the
higher the gauge level
B State of Charge gauge (SOC)
The State of Charge gauge displays the high-voltage battery
charge status
•MIN position on the gauge indicates that the driving battery
energy is low
•MA X position on the gauge indicates that the driving battery is
fully charged

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
ECO display light – Indicates that the ECO System is operational
This indicator light is always illuminated unless the ECO System is
turned OFF
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
When charging is complete, the green indicator turns on
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

The indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure
Light and TPMS Malfunction Indicator
The TPMS indicator illuminates if one or more tires is
significantly underinflated, the vehicle has a spare tire
installed without TPMS or the outside temperature becomes
significantly lower
Inflate tire(s) to specifications using an accurate digital tire
pressure gauge to turn off Low Tire Pressure Light See
front driver’s door jamb for PSI specification
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS
Malfunction Indicator will blink for approximately one minute
and then illuminate - see dealer for service
REMINDER: Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s)
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
REMINDER: Do not turn the vehicle off by pushing the POWER button while the vehicle is in motion If the vehicle has been turned off the power brake and power steering system cannot operate
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)Energy Consumption
•
•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month Only adjust Tire Pressure on “cold tires” •For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle •In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather

Active ECO System
REMINDER: When Active ECO is activated and the Power button is cycled, the Active ECO system remains ON
Soul EV is equipped with an ECO feature that improves energy
efficiency and helps extend battery life The Active ECO System
helps reduce energy consumption by controlling several vehicle
components When activated, it optimizes drivetrain operations such
as engine power and transmission to help improve energy economy
Active ECO System ON results in reduced torque, higher energy
efficiency, and enhanced regenerative braking
Active ECO System OFF results in more torque, lower energy
efficiency, and reduced regenerative braking
The Active ECO System is activated by pressing the ACTIVE ECO
button A (LED illuminated) and can be deactivated by pressing the
button again (LED not illuminated) The green ECO indicator light B in
the instrument cluster will illuminate, indicating that ECO is operating
To help reduce energy consumption: •Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly and at a moderate rate •Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure and wheels aligned properly

Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
The ESC system is designed to help stabilize the vehicle during cornering
maneuvers It is a good idea to keep the ESC turned ON for daily driving
whenever possible
Press ESC button B to turn ESC OFF/ON
REMINDERS:
• ESC is turned ON by default at vehicle start-up If vehicle power is cycled, ESC will turn ON again
• The ESC Indicator Light in the instrument cluster will be lit momentarily whenever the ESC is active
Instrument Panel Dimmer
With parking lights / headlights ON, press button A + or – to adjust display
brightness of the instrument panel illumination
REMINDERS:
• Door Mood Lamp is a fixed brightness and cannot be adjusted (not to be confused with Advanced Mood Lighting Speaker)
• The Instrument Panel Dimmer does not adjust brightness on the UVO E V Services with Premium Navigation System* screen; use UVO E V Services with Premium Navigation System* settings menu to adjust brightness on the screen
Heated Steering Wheel Button
Press button C to turn ON/OFF steering wheel heater, while the Engine
Start /Stop Button is in the ON position Steering wheel heater will turn off
automatically in 30 minutes, or when button is pressed again to deactivate
If ignition is turned OFF, then ON again, within 30 minutes of steering wheel heater being turned on, system will automatically be set ON again
QUICK TIP
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
HAC helps prevent the vehicle from rolling backward when accelerating from
a stop while on a steep incline The HAC automatically activates whether the
ESC is OFF or ON but does NOT activate when the ESC has malfunctioned
REMINDER: The HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or the N (Neutral) position
•
•HAC provides a 2-second delay before the vehicle may start rolling backwards •When HAC is active (e g , accelerating from a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes will momentarily remain engaged – this is normal HAC operation
