僅 Do not remove or disassemble high voltage components and high voltage battery con
-
nectors and/or wiring (orange cabling). Also, be careful not to damage high voltage
components and the high voltage battery. It may cause serious injury and significantly
impact the performance and durability of the vehicle.
僅 When inspection and maintenance is required for high voltage components and the
high voltage battery, have the vehicle inspected by an authorised Kia dealer/service
partner.
僅 Make sure to use a designated charger when charging the HV battery. Using different
types of chargers may have a serious impact on vehicle durability.
僅 Make sure that the HV battery charge gauge does not reach E (Empty). If the vehicle is
kept at E (Empty) 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.
僅 If the vehicle is in a collision, contact an authorised Kia dealer/service partner to inspect
whether the high voltage battery is still connected.
僅 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.
僅 If the vehicle is in a collision, we recommend that you visit an authorised Kia dealer/ser
-
vice partner to inspect whether the high voltage battery is still connected.
僅 Using the V2L function may reduce the mileage due to the use of high voltage battery
energy, and repeated use of the V2L function may cause a decrease in the life of the
high voltage battery.
The high voltage battery warmer system operates when the charging connector is con
-
nected to the vehicle.
However, the high voltage warmer system may not operate when battery temperature
drops below -35 °C (-95 °F).
