Driving your vehicle
SMART RECUPERATION SYSTEM
The smart recuperation system
recognizes vehicle-to-vehicle distance,
road gradient, and speed cameras and
controls the regenerative braking level
while coasting. It reduces unnecessary
depressing of pedals to improve fuel
efficiency and driver convenience.
Information
•
Coasting is the process of driving a
vehicle without the brake pedal and the
accelerator depressed. Coasting uses
the inertia of driving energy instead of
the vehicle power.
•
The regenerative braking system uses
the electric motor to engage the brake.
The electric motor converts the kinetic
energy generated from decelerating the
vehicle to electricity and charges the
high voltage battery.
Smart recuperation system on/
off
Operate the paddle shift lever as shown
below to use the smart recuperation
system.
• Turning on the smart recuperation
system: While the READY indicator is
ON, shift the gear to D (drive), and pull
and hold the right paddle shift lever

The smart recuperation system is ON
and the regenerative braking level is
displayed as AUTO.
• Turning off the smart recuperation
system: While the smart recuperation
system is ON, pull and hold the right
paddle shift lever (
) for over a
second
The instrument cluster will display the
regenerative braking level instead of
‘AUTO’, and the smart recuperation
system will turn off.
• Using one pedal driving: While the
smart recuperation system is ON, pull
and hold the left paddle shift lever
(
) for over 0.5 seconds (See ‘One
Pedal Driving’ for details)
i-PEDAL is not available while the
smart recuperation system is ON. Turn
off the smart recuperation system first
before using i-PEDAL.
