Winter Mode
• The Winter mode is efficient dur-
ing the winter time when the high
voltage battery temperature is low.
This mode is recommended to
improve driving and DC charging
performances during winter by
raising the battery temperature to
an adequate level. However, this
may reduce the distance to empty
significantly as the high voltage
battery consumes a lot more elec-
tricity.
• Also, if the battery temperature is
low during driving or when sched-
uled air conditioner/heater is acti-
vated, this mode is operated to
improve driving performance.
However, when the battery level is
low, the mode is not operated to
ensure driving distance.
❈
This mode is available for the vehi-
cles equipped with the battery
heater.
