Wireless smart phone charging system (if equipped)

A wireless smart phone charging system is located in front of the center console.

Firmly close all doors, and ensure the ignition switch or ENGINE START/STOP button is ON. To start wireless charging, place the smart phone equipped with wireless charging function on the wireless charging pad.

For best wireless charging results, place the smart phone on the center of the charging pad.

The wireless charging system is designed for one smart phone equipped with QI only. Please refer to the smart phone accessory cover or the smart phone manufacturer’s homepage to check whether your smart phone supports QI function.

WARNING

If any metallic object such as coins is located between the wireless charging system and the smart phone, charging may be disrupted. Also, the metallic object may heat up.

You can choose to turn the wireless charging function to either ON or OFF by selecting the Ultimate Stock Manifold (USM) on the instrument cluster. (Please refer to More Details for details).

If wireless charging does not work, gently move your smart phone around the pad until the charging indicator light turns yellow. Depending on the smart phone, the charging indicator light may not turn green even after charging is complete.

If the wireless charging is not functioning properly, the orange light will blink and flash for ten seconds, and then turn off. Remove the smart phone from the pad and replace it on the pad, or double check the charging status.

If you leave the smart phone on the charging pad when the vehicle ignition is in OFF, the vehicle will alert you through warning messages and sound (applicable for vehicles with voice guidance function) after the 'Good bye' function on the instrument cluster ends.

NOTICE

For some manufacturers' smart phones, the system may not warn you even though the smart phone is left on the wireless charging unit. This is due to the characteristic of the smart phone and not a malfunction of the wireless charging system.
