• Natural degradation may occur with
the high voltage battery depending
on the number of years the vehicle is
used. This may reduce the distance to
empty.
•
When the charge capacity and
distance to empty keep falling,
we recommend that you contact
an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products for inspection and
maintenance.
•
If the vehicle will not be in use for an
extended period of time, charge the
high voltage battery once every three
months to prevent it from discharging.
Also, if the charge amount is not
enough, immediately charge to full
and store the vehicle.
•
To keep the battery in optimal
condition, use AC charging. Fully
charging the battery when it is 20 %
or lower helps to keep the battery in
optimal condition. (Charging once a
month or more is recommended.)
•
The charging level value displayed on
the instrument cluster may decrease
according to the charging conditions
(charger status, outside temperature,
battery temperature, etc.). For longer
battery life and safety, after a certain
charging level is reached, the charging
current is gradually lowered to fully
charge the battery.
CAUTION
• If the vehicle is kept with insufficient
charge for a long period, it may
damage the high voltage battery and
the high voltage battery may have to
be replaced depending on the level
of degradation.
•
If the vehicle is in a collision, we
recommend that you contact an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products to inspect
whether the high voltage battery is
still connected.
•
Using the V2L function may reduce
the driving distance due to the use
of high voltage battery energy, and
repeated use of the V2L function may
decrease high voltage battery life.
High voltage battery warmer
system
The high voltage battery warmer system
prevents reduction of battery output
when battery temperature is low. If the
charging connector is connected, the
warmer system automatically operates
according to the battery temperature.
Charging time may shorten compare to
vehicles without the high voltage battery
warmer system. But, electricity charge
may increase because of high voltage
battery warmer system operation.
CAUTION
The high voltage battery warmer
system operates when the charging
connector is connected to the vehicle.
However, the high voltage warmer
system may not operate when battery
temperature drops below -35°C (-31°F).
