HEV (HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE) SYSTEM
The Kia Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) uses both the gasoline engine and the electric motor for power. The electric motor is run by a 240V high-voltage HEV battery.
Depending on the driving conditions, the HEV computer selectively operates between the engine and the electric motor or even both at the same time.
Fuel efficiency increases when the engine is at idle, or when the vehicle is driven by the electric motor with the HEV battery.
The HEV battery charge must be maintained because, at times, the engine may come on even at idle to act as a generator. Charging also occurs when decelerating or by regenerative braking.

PHEV (PLUG-IN ELECTRIC VEHICLE) SYSTEM
The Kia Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) shares the characteristics of both a conventional hybrid electric vehicle and an all-electric vehicle.
When used as a conventional hybrid electric vehicle, the HEV computer selectively operates between the engine and the electric motor or even both at the same time.
When it is operating in the electric vehicle mode, the vehicle is driven only using the electric motor over a certain distance until the hybrid battery becomes low. The driving distance in EV mode depends on customer driving style and road conditions. Aggressive driving maneuvers may at times temporarily enable the engine to operate for maximum power.
The hybrid battery can be fully charged by connecting a plug to an external electric power source.
The engine can be turned on based on a number of factors such as heater usage and a frequent operation of the accelerator pedal by a driver in Charge Depleting mode.

ODEPQ017029
If the charging connector does not unlock for some reason, open the hood and slightly pull the emergency cable as shown above. The charging door will then open.
If the charging door does not opened immediately after pulling the emergency cable, press the charging door lightly and pull the emergency cable again.
The charging cable lock may not work properly when foreign materials such as dust enter the cable or the cable is encrusted with ice.
In that case, the charging cable may not be disconnected or locked, or the vehicle may not be charged. If this happens, open the hood and pull the emergency cable lightly 2 to 3 times and then try to disconnect the charging cable or start recharging.

How to Disconnect the Portable Charging Cable (ICCB: In-Cable Control Box)
1.Before disconnecting the charging connector, make sure the doors are unlocked. When the door is locked, the charging connector lock system will not allow disconnection. To prevent charging cable theft, the charging connector cannot be disconnected from the inlet when the doors are locked. Unlock all doors to disconnect the charging connector from the inlet. However, if the vehicle is in the charging connector AUTO mode, the charging connector automatically unlocks from the inlet when charging is completed. For more details, refer to “Charging Connector AUTO/LOCK Mode” in this chapter.
CAUTION
In order to disconnect the charging connector, unlock the doors to release the charging connector lock system. If not, the charging connector and the vehicle's charging inlet may be damaged.
ODEPQ017031
2.While holding the charging connector, pressing the locking release button(1) and then pull it out.
3.Make sure to securely close the charging door.
OJFHPQ016015N
4.Disconnect the plug from the household electric outlet. Do not pull the cable when disconnecting the plug.
5.Close the protective cover for the charging connector so that foreign material cannot get into the terminal.
6.Put the charging cable inside the storage bag to protect it.

H26
Action to be taken when charging stops abruptly
When the high voltage battery does not charge, check the followings:
1.Check the charging setting for the vehicle.
(e.g. When scheduled charging is set, charging is not initiated immediately when the AC charger or portable charger (ICCB: In-Cable Control Box) is connected.)
2.Check the operation status of AC charger, portable charger.
(Charging Status Indicator Lamp for Portable Charger, refer to “Checking Charging Status” for trickle charge in this chapter.)
Actual method for indicating the charging status may vary in accordance with the charger manufacturer.
3.When the vehicle does not charge and a warning message appears on the cluster, check the corresponding message. Refer to “LCD Display Messages”, in this chapter.
4.If the vehicle is properly charged when charged with another normally working charger, contact the charger manufacturer.
5.If the vehicle does not charge when charged with another normally working charger, we recommend that you contact an authorized Kia dealer.
