Checking Basic Information on Charging Your Electric Vehicle
Before charging your vehicle, check and understand the information such as the expected charging time according to the charge type, checking the State of Charge (SOC).
The charge types for electric vehicle are as follows:
-
AC charge: The electric vehicle is charged via an AC charger at public or private charging stations.
-
DC charge: You can charge at high speeds at public charging stations. Refer to the respective company's manual that is provided for each DC charger type.
-
Portable charge: If the vehicle cannot be moved to a public charging station due to a lack of battery power, the vehicle can be charged with household electricity, using the 120 V portable charger included with the vehicle.
-
Risk of electric shock. Do not disconnect under load.
-
Suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 5,000 rms symmetrical Amperes, 120 V AC Maximum.
-
Suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 30,000 rms symmetrical Amperes, 1,000 V DC Maximum.
-
Battery performance and life may deteriorate if the DC charger is used constantly. It is best to occasionally use AC charger to optimize battery life.
-
The electrical outlet at home must comply with regulations and safely accommodate the Voltage, Current (Amps), and Power (Watts) ratings specified on the portable charger. If not, the vehicle may not be charged or safety hazards, such as fire, may occur.
-
If the power distributor exceeds its capacity while charging the vehicle with a portable charger at home, the power to home may be cut off or a fire may occur.
-
If you use a portable charger to charge your electric vehicle with household electricity, you are charged on your household electricity bill.
The estimated charging time for each charging type is as follows:

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.
-
If the charger is worn out, exposed, or there exists any type of damage, charging may stop for your safety. Use another charger that works normally.
-
When charging the battery, an additional 3 minutes may be required to check battery condition.
Check the State of Charge (SOC) of the high voltage battery via the charge indicator light inside the charging door.
-
With the vehicle door unlocked, press the open indicator on the charging door to open the charging door.
-
Check the SOC referring to the charge indicator light inside the charging door.
-
SOC is indicated in 4 levels.

When the charging connector is connected to the vehicle charging inlet, it is locked automatically to prevent unintended detachment from the vehicle while charging.
To remove the charging connector after charging is complete:
-
Unlock any vehicle door.
-
Push and hold down the latch on the charging connector.
If you press the latch on the charging connector while charging, charging will pause temporarily or stop completely depending on the AC/DC charging type.
-
AC charge: Charging is temporarily paused.
-
DC charge: Charging is stopped.
If the unlock button is not functioning properly due to a discharged battery or abnormal electrical wiring, the charging connector cannot be disconnected from the vehicle.
Do not disconnect the charging connector forcibly. Doing so may damage the charging connector or the charging inlet on the vehicle.
If the charging connector is not disconnected due to battery being fully discharged or a wiring failure, open the liftgate and pull the emergency cable on the liftgate’s right wall.
