EV button
Whenever the front door is opened, the EV button will appear.
The light will turn off after about 30 seconds when the door is closed.
When all doors are closed, if you lock the vehicle by using the transmitter or the smart key, the light will turn off immediately.
EV button position
The EV button has the following four positions.
-
OFF
-

START/RUN
To turn off the vehicle power (off position), press the EV button with the shift lever in the P (Park) position.
Press the EV button while it is in the off position without depressing the brake pedal.
If the EV button is in the acc position for more than 1 hour, the button will turn off automatically to prevent battery discharge.
Press the EV button while it is in the acc position without depressing the brake pedal.
The warning lights can be checked before the vehicle is started. Do not leave the EV button in the on position for a long time. The battery may discharge, because the vehicle is not moving.
To start the vehicle, depress the brake pedal and press the EV button with the shift lever in the P (Park) position.
If you press the EV button without depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle will not start, and the EV button changes as follow:
Go to OFF → ACC → ON → OFF or ACC

If you leave the EV button in the acc or on position for a long time without driving, the battery will discharge.

When you enter the vehicle with the smart key or digital key (UWB) (if equipped), your vehicle will switch to READY mode, if remote climate control/scheduled climate control is activated.
-
If the remote climate control/scheduled climate control is activated and you place an NFC card key or digital key on a charging pad after entering the vehicle, your vehicle will also switch to READY mode upon closing your door or pressing the brake pedal.
-
If a smart key or digital key (if equipped) is not detected inside the car when you close the door or press the brake pedal, a warning message will be displayed.
-
Once your vehicle has switched to READY mode, be cautious not to switch gears. Doing so may cause your vehicle to move.
Starting Vehicle
Never press the EV button while the vehicle is in motion except in an emergency. This will result in loss of directional control and braking function, which could cause an accident.
Leaving the Vehicle
To avoid unexpected or sudden vehicle movement, never leave your vehicle if the gear shifter is not in the P (Park) position and the parking brake is fully engaged. Then shut the vehicle off.
