Features of your vehicle
For best wireless charging results, place
the smart phone on the centre 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 homepage to
check whether your smart phone sup-
ports QI function.
WARNING
If any metallic object such as coins is
located between the wireless charging
system and the smart phone, the
charging may be disrupted. Also, the
metallic object may heat up.
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 centre
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 "Instru-
ment cluster" on page 4-73 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.
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
particular characteristic of the smart
phone and not a malfunction of the
wireless charging.
CAUTION
僅 When the interior temperature of the
wireless charging system rises above
a set temperature, the wireless
charging will cease to function. After
the interior temperature drops below
the threshold, the wireless charging
function will resume.
僅 If there is any metallic object between
the smart phone and the wireless
charging pad, immediately remove
the smart phone. Remove the metallic
object after it has completely cooled
down.
僅 The wireless charging may not func-
tion properly when there is a heavy
accessory cover on the smart phone.
