7. Check if the charging indicator light
(
) of the high voltage battery in
the instrument cluster is turned ON.
Charging is not active when the
charging indicator light (
) is OFF.
When the charging connector is not
connected properly, reconnect the
charging cable to charge it again.
During cold weather, DC charging
may not be available to prevent high
voltage battery degradation.
Information
To control the temperature of the high
voltage battery while charging or when
the battery temperature is high, the air
conditioner is used to cool down the
battery. It may generate noise or vibration
from operation of the air conditioner
compressor and cooling fan, but it is a
normal condition when charging the high
voltage battery. Also, the air conditioner’s
performance may be degraded due to
operation of the cooling system to charge
the high voltage battery. This is a normal
condition.
Information
• Even though charging is possible with
the Start/Stop button in the ON/START
position, for you safety, start charging
when the Start/Stop button is in the
OFF position and the vehicle shifted to
P (Park). After charging has started,
you can use electrical components such
as the radio by pressing the Start/Stop
button to the ACC or ON position.
• During charging, the gear cannot be
shifted from P (Park) to any other gear.
