1 26
nected from the inlet when the vehi-
cle's doors are locked. Unlock all
doors to disconnect the charging con-
nector from the inlet.
However, if the vehicle is in the
charging connector AUTO mode, the
charging connector automatically
unlocks from the inlet when charging
is completed.
For more details, refer to "Charging
connector lock" on page 1-19.
CAUTION
In order to disconnect the charging con-
nector, release the door lock to unlatch
the charging connector lock system.
If not, the charging connector and the
vehicle's charging inlet may be dam-
aged.
CAUTION
Before disconnecting the charging con-
nector, make sure the vehicle's doors are
unlocked. When the doors are locked,
the charging connector lock release but-
ton (1) will not work.
When disconnecting the charging con-
nector, do not try to disconnect it by
force without pressing the release but-
ton. This may damage the charging con-
nector and vehicle charging inlet.
If the charging connector lock does not
unlatch even after the door lock doors
have been unlocked, open the liftgate
and pull the emergency release lever to
disconnect the charging connector. If
this occurs, the charging connector lock
function may have a problem, so have
your vehicle inspected by an authorized
Kia dealer.
3. Make sure to completely close the AC
charging inlet cover.
