*IF EQUIPPEDALWAYS CHECK THE OWNER’S MANUAL FOR COMPLETE OPERATING INFORMATION AND SAFETY WARNINGS.
REMINDERS:
• If DTE displays “Zero Miles,” you need to charge the vehicle immediately
• Most electric vehicles can drive an additional two to 󲛵ve miles depending on
driving conditions
• Distance to empty may depend on many factors such as the charge amount
of the high voltage battery, weather, temperature, durability of the battery,
geographical features, and driving style
•Operating the climate control system may reduce the Distance to Empty
•When decelerating or driving downhill, regenerative braking charges the high voltage
battery which minimizes energy loss and increases the Distance to Empty or Range
•When you set a destination via the on-board navigation system, DTE is calculated based
on the route selected. By setting a 󲛵nal destination, DTE accuracy improves. By knowing
the 󲛵nal location, the vehicle can better predict the amount of battery energy it will need to
reach that destination
•When operating the climate control, use the DRIVER ONLY function to conserve energy
•In cold weather, use scheduled heating to reduce the amount of energy consumption
•In the EV Settings, select WINTER MODE to increase the battery temperature in cold weather

Level 2 Charging – “Normal” Charge (AC)
A Level 2 or “normal” 240-volt/50-amp charger is the recommended charging system for your EV. This type of
charger uses 240 volts of electricity and takes approximately 8.5 hours for a full charge. This charger may be able
to be installed at your home by a quali󲛵ed electrician or can be found at a public charging station.
REMINDER: The shape of the charger and how to use the charger may be different for each manufacturer. Please see section 1 in
the Owner’s Manual for more information.
Level 3 Charging* – “Quick” Charge (DC)
A Level 3 or “quick” DC fast charger is usually found at public charging stations. This type of DC charge
may charge an EV in as little as 60 minutes to about an 80% charge. An ultra fast DC charger charge time from
10-80% on a 350kW charger is approximately 18 minutes.
REMINDER: Kia does not recommend primarily charging with a DC charger because it can reduce the lifespan of the battery.
