Driving Your Vehicle
Using one pedal driving
Pull and hold the left paddle shifter (
for over 0.5 seconds while coasting to
enable the one pedal driving mode.
• Release the paddle shifter when the
vehicle speed is above 1.8 mph (3 km/h)
to return to the previously set
regenerative braking level.
• If the vehicle speed is below 1.8 mph (3
km/h), the vehicle will keep engaging
the brake although the driver releases
the paddle shifter.
• Releasing the paddle shifter after the
vehicle comes to a stop will maintain
the vehicle stationary.
CAUTION
• The vehicle may not come to a stop
although the one pedal driving function
is active, depending on the condition of
the vehicle and the road. Check the
surroundings and depress the brake
pedal to decelerate.
• If the driver depresses the accelerator
pedal while pulling and holding the left
paddle shifter (
) to increase the
braking level, one pedal driving
function operates same as i-PEDAL
function. In this case, the vehicle speed
is no longer controllable through the
paddle shifter.

Automatic engagement of EPB
Use one pedal driving function to bring
the vehicle to a stop and automatically
engage the Electronic Parking Brake

After the vehicle is stopped, EPB is
automatically applied when any of the
following conditions are satisfied:
• The driver's seatbelt is unfastened and
the driver's door is open.
• The gear shifts to N (Neutral).
• The hood is open.
• The trunk is open.
• 5 minutes have passed after the vehicle
has stopped.
• One pedal driving is limited due to
other reasons.
Using i-PEDAL
i-PEDAL assists the driver to accelerate,
decelerate, and stop the vehicle with only
the accelerator pedal.
Turning on/off the i-PEDAL
• Turning on i-PEDAL:
Pull the left paddle shifter (
when the regenerative braking level is
at 3. i-PEDAL is turned on and the
instrument cluster displays the
'i-PEDAL' message. i-PEDAL is not
available while the smart regeneration
system is on. Turn off the smart
regeneration system first before using
i-PEDAL.
• Turning off i-PEDAL:
Pull the right paddle shifter (
while the function is on. Otherwise,
shift the gear to R (Reverse) then to D
) once
