Electric vehicle guide Main components of electric vehicle
AC (L2-Normal) charging is recom -
mended to keep the high voltage battery
in optimal condition.
If the HV battery is only charged to 80%,
and you minimize the number of DC fast
charging, you can keep the HV battery
performance in optimal condition. (vs
charging the HV battery to 100% an/or
charging every drive cycle.)
The value of the high voltage battery
charge level may vary according to the
charging conditions (state of charger,
outside temperature, battery tempera
-
ture, etc.). In order to fully charge the
battery, the current of the high voltage
battery will be gradually decreased, so
that the longevity and safety of the bat
-
tery can be secured.
High voltage battery warmer sys -
tem
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.
WARNING
僅 Do not remove or disassemble high
voltage components and high voltage
battery connectors 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 durabil
-
ity 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 authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
CAUTION
僅 Make sure to use a designated char -
ger 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 volt
-
age battery and the high voltage bat -
tery may have to be replaced,
depending on the level of degrada -
tion.
僅 If the vehicle is in a collision, contact
an authorized Kia dealer/service part
-
ner to inspect whether the high volt -
age battery is still connected.
僅 If the vehicle is kept with insufficient
charge for a long period, it may dam
-
age the high voltage battery and the
high voltage battery may have to be
replaced depending on the level of
degradation.
