Charging System
![](images/wireless_cellular_phone_charging_system-3046/2840/pages.84(1).png)
[A] : Charging pad
There is a wireless cellular phone charger
inside the front console.
The system is available when all doors
are closed, and when the ignition switch
is in the ACC/ON position.
To charge a cellular phone
The wireless cellular phone charging
system charges only the Qi-enabled
cellular phones. Read the label on the
cellular phone accessory cover or visit
your cellular phone manufacturer’s
website to check whether your cellular
phone supports the Qi technology.
The wireless charging process starts
when you put a Qi-enabled cellular
phone on the wireless charging unit.
1. Remove other items, including the
smart key, from the wireless charging
unit. If not, the wireless charging
process may be interrupted. Place the
cellular phone on the center of the
charging pad (
).
2. When charging starts, a charging
icon is displayed on the infotainment
system screen. However, depending
on the infotainment system screen,
the wireless charging icon may not be
displayed. See the infotainment web
manual for details.
3. You can turn ON or OFF the wireless
charging function in the user settings
mode on the instrument cluster. For
further information, refer to the “LCD
Display Modes” in this chapter.
The system warns you with a message
on the LCD display if the cellular phone
is still on the wireless charging unit after
the engine is turned OFF and the front
door is opened.
Information
For some manufacturers’ cellular phones,
the system may not warn you even though
the cellular phone is left on the wireless
charging unit. This is due to the particular
characteristic of the cellular phone and
not a malfunction of the wireless charging.
NOTICE
- The wireless cellular phone charging
system may not support certain
cellular phones, which are not
verified for the Qi specification (
).
- When placing your cellular phone
on the charging mat, position the
phone in the middle of the mat for
optimal charging performance. If
your cellular phone is off to the side,
the charging rate may be less and in
some cases the cellular phone may
experience higher heat conduction.
- In some cases, the wireless charging
may stop temporarily when the
Remote Key or Smart Key is used,
either when starting the vehicle or
locking/unlocking the doors, etc.
- The wireless charging process may
temporarily stop, when temperature
abnormally increases inside the
wireless cellular phone charging
system. Stop the charging cellular
phone and wait until temperature
falls to a certain level.
- The wireless charging process may
temporarily stop when there is
any metallic item, such as a coin,
between the wireless cellular phone
charging system and the cellular
phone.
- When charging some cellular phones
with a self-protection feature,
the wireless charging speed may
decrease and the wireless charging
may stop.
- If the cellular phone has a thick
cover, the wireless charging may not
be possible.
- If the cellular phone is not
completely contacting the charging
pad, wireless charging may not
operate properly.
- Some magnetic items like credit
cards, phone cards or rail tickets may
be damaged if left with the cellular
phone during the charging process.
- When any cellular phone without
a wireless charging function or a
metallic object is placed on the
charging pad, a small noise may
sound. This small sound is due to the
vehicle discerning compatibility of
the object placed on the charging
pad. It does not affect your vehicle or
the cellular phone in any way.
Information
If the ignition switch is in the LOCK/ OFF
position, the charging also stops.
