Features of your vehicle
Wireless smart phone charging
1. Remove any object on the smart
phone charging pad including the
smart key. If there is any foreign
object on the pad other than a smart
phone, the wireless charging function
may not operate properly.
2. Place the smart phone on the center
of the wireless charging pad.
3. The indicator light will change to
orange once the wireless charging
begins. After the charging is com-
plete, the orange light will change to
green.
4. You can choose to turn the wireless
charging function to either ON or OFF
by selecting the USM on the instru-
ment cluster. (Please refer to "User
settings mode (if equipped)" on page
4-93 for details).
If the 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 the charging is
complete.
If the wireless charging is not function-
ing properly, the orange light will blink
and flash for ten seconds then turn off.
In such cases, remove the smart phone
from the pad and replace it on the pad
again, or double check the charging sta-
tus.
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 (applica-
ble for vehicles with voice guidance
function) after the 'Good bye' function
on the instrument cluster ends.
For some manufacturers' smart phones,
the system may not warn you even
4 170
though the smart phone is left on the
wireless charging unit. This is due to the
particular characteristic of the smart
phone and not a malfunction of the
wireless charging.
WARNING
Distracted driving
Driving while distracted can result in a
loss of vehicle control that may lead to
an accident, severe bodily injury, or
death. The driver's primary responsibility
is in the safe and legal operation of a
vehicle. Any use of handheld devices,
other equipment, or vehicle systems that
take the driver's eyes, attention, and
focus away from the safe operation of a
vehicle are not permissable by law.
These should never be used during the
operation of the vehicle.
CAUTION
Liquid in wireless charging system
To prevent liquid from damaging the
wireless smart phone charging system in
your vehicle, be sure not to spill liquid
over the charging system.
CAUTION
Metal in wireless charging system
If any metallic object such as a coin is
located between the wireless charging
system and the smart phone, the
charging may be disrupted. Also, the
metallic object may heat up and poten-
tially damage the charging system. If
there is any metallic object between the
smart phone and the charging pad,
immediately remove the smart phone.
Remove the metallic object after it has
cooled down.
