Charging electric vehicle
僅 When connecting or removing the
charging cable, make sure to hold the
charging connector handle.
僅 Only use the charging cable (if
equipped) certified by Kia. If you use a
separate extension cable such as a
reel or use an uncertified cable, it may
cause abnormalities of electrical out
-
lets, leading to fire or explosion.
僅 If you pull the cable itself (without
using the handle), the internal wires
may disconnect or get damaged. This
may lead to electric shock or fire.
僅 Do not leave the vehicle with the
charging door open. An open
charging door may indicate that the
vehicle door has been unlocked and
may be subject to vehicle theft.
CAUTION
僅 Always keep the charging connector
and charging plug in clean and dry
condition. Be sure to keep the
charging cable in a condition where
there is no water or moisture.
僅 Make sure to use the designated
charger for charging the electric vehi
-
cle. Using any other charger may
cause failure.
僅 Before charging the battery, turn the
vehicle OFF.
僅 When the vehicle is switched OFF
while charging, the cooling fan inside
the motor compartment may auto
-
matically operate. Do not touch the
cooling fan while charging.
僅 Be careful not to drop the charging
connector. The charging connector
can be damaged.
僅 Do NOT use a extension cord, when
using the L1-Portable charger, as this
may overheat and/or cause damage.
NOTICE
When charging or right after charging
the high voltage battery, the cooling will
be made using air conditioner system in
order to control the high voltage battery
temperature.
At this time, the noise might occur by the
air conditioner compressor and cooling
fan, but this is due to normal operation.
Unlock charging connector in
emergency
If the charging cable does not detach
due to battery discharge and failure of
the electric wires, open the liftgate and
slightly pull the emergency cable on the
right side area as shown above. The
charging connector will then unlock.
