Setting battery conditioning mode

You can raise the battery temperature to maintain optimal driving performance and DC charging performance at conditions when the low temperature of the high voltage battery temperature may degrade the battery performance.

Be aware of the followings when using battery conditioning mode.

  • The driving distance may be reduced as energy is required to increase the battery temperature.

  • If the battery temperature is low during driving or when the scheduled air conditioner/heater is activated, the battery conditioning mode is operated to improve driving performance. To ensure driving distance the battery conditioning mode will not be operated when the battery level is too low.

  • If you set the DC charging station as your destination while using the battery conditioning mode, the battery temperature is optimized for charging and you can shorten the charging time after you arrive and start charging.

  • Battery conditioning mode is available for vehicles equipped with the battery heater.

Setting Utility Mode

Utility mode allows the high voltage battery to be used instead of the 12 V auxiliary battery for purposes other than driving. You can use the audio and lights of the vehicle without discharging the 12 V auxiliary battery and even use the indoor V2L feature.

  • You cannot drive the vehicle while the utility mode is activated, and the gear can only be shifted to P (Park).

  • You can use every electric device in the vehicle while the utility mode is activated.

  • When the utility mode is activated, the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) is applied automatically.

Follow the instructions below to set the utility mode.

  1. Check the operation conditions of the utility mode.

    • The (ready indicator) is displayed on the instrument cluster.

    • The gear is shifted to P (Park).

  2. On the infotainment system, swipe the Home screen to the left to display the All menus screen.

  3. On the All menus screen, select EV > (EV Settings) > Utility mode and select Activate Utility mode to activate the function (Utility Mode: ON).

  • The (ready indicator) turns off and the UTIL (utility indicator) illuminates on the instrument cluster and the EPB is applied.

  • The utility mode can be deactivated by pressing the Start/Stop button to the OFF position.

  • If you want to utilize V2L function in the vehicle while the utility mode is activated, refer to the “Using Electricity Inside the Vehicle” section in this chapter.

If the utility mode is not activated when the vehicle is in the ready () mode and the gear is shifted to P (Park), inspect the operation status of EPB.

Searching for nearby charging stations

Around the course, around the current site, around the selected destination or charging stations of interest can be searched. If you choose the charging station, the detailed information is provided.
