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
(applicable for vehicles with voice guid‐
ance function) after the Good bye
function on the instrument cluster
ends.
CAUTION
• Securely close the tray cover when
using the wireless smart phone
charge function. Otherwise, some
liquid held by the cup holder may
flow onto the wireless charging
pad during sudden stops.
• Close the tray cover when the
smart phone is placed in it at all
times. If the vehicle is in motion
without the tray cover closed, it is
more likely that the driver may
use the smart phone. The use of
smart phones while driving may
lead to possible injuries and acci‐
dents.
• If it is not possible to close the
tray cover due to the size of the
smart phone, do not use the wire‐
less smart phone charging func‐
tion at all.
• When the tray cover is broken, do
not use the wireless charging
function before the tray cover is
repaired.

• When the interior temperature of
the wireless charging system rises
above a set temperature, the
wireless charging will cease to
function. After the interior tem‐
perature drops below the thresh‐
old, the wireless charging function
will resume.
• If any metallic object such as coins
is located between the wireless
charging system and the smart
phone, the charging may be dis‐
rupted. Also, the metallic object
may heat up.
• If there is any metallic object be‐
tween the smart phone and the
wireless charging pad, immediate‐
ly remove the smart phone. Re‐
move the metallic object after it
has completely cooled down.
• The wireless charging may not
function properly when there is a
heavy accessory cover on the
smart phone.
