NOTICE
• If it is not possible to close the tray
cover due to the size of your smart
phone or because the tray cover
has been broken, do not use the
wireless smart phone charging
function.
• Even if you're not charging your
smart phone, keep the tray cover
closed at all times when it is left in
the tray. Driving with the tray
cover opened will increase the
chance of accidents and result in
injury as you're highly likely to get
distracted by the smart phone.
• When the interior temperature of
the wireless charging system rises
above a set temperature, the wire-
less charging will cease to func-
tion. After the interior tempera-
ture drops below the threshold,
the wireless charging function will
resume.
• The wireless charging may not
function properly when there is a
heavy accessory cover on the
smart phone.

Driving while distracted can
result in a loss of vehicle con-
trol that may lead to an acci-
dent, severe personal injury,
and death. The driver’s primary
responsibility is in the safe and
legal operation of a vehicle, and
use of any handheld devices,
other equipment, or vehicle sys-
tems which take the driver’s
eyes, attention and focus away
from the safe operation of a
vehicle or which are not permis-
sible by law should never be
used during operation of the
vehicle.CAUTION - Liquid in

the wireless smart phone charg-
ing system in your vehicle,
securely close the tray cover
when charging your phone.
WARNING - Metal in

appropriate accessory has to be
equipped in order to use the vehi-
cle's wireless charging system.
• Cellphones that are not certified
for wireless smart phone charging
standards (QI) may not be able to
charge.

smart phones could slow down or
stop charging.
• In some cases, the wireless charg-
ing indicator could not turn green
even when the phone is fully
charged.
• Smart phones of some manufac-
turers may display messages on
weak current. This is due to the
particular characteristic of the
smart phone and does not imply a
malfunction on wireless charging
function.
(Continued)(Continued)
• The indicator light of some manu-
facturers' smart phones may still
be yellow after the smart phone is
fully charged.
This is due to the particular char-
acteristic of the smart phone and
not a malfunction of the wireless
charging system.
• When any smart phone without a
wireless charging function or a
metallic object is placed on the
charging pad, a small noise may
sound. This small sound is due to
the vehicle discerning compatibili-
ty of the object placed on the
charging pad. It does not affect
your vehicle or the smart phone in
any way.
