Function and operation of the
wireless charger

A portable device, such as a smart-
phone or mobile battery, can be
charged by just placing it on the
charging area, provided the device
is compatible with the Qi wireless
charging standard created by the
Wireless Power Consortium.

WARNING

■

Caution while driving

When charging a portable device while

driving, for safety reasons, the driver

should not operate the portable device.

■

Precautions for when driving

Do not charge small, lightweight porta-

ble devices, such as wireless earbuds,

while driving. Lightweight devices may fly

off of the charging tray, possibly leading

to an accident.

■

Caution regarding interference with

electronic devices

People with implantable cardiac pace-

makers, cardiac resynchronization ther-

apy pacemakers or implantable

cardioverter defibrillators, as well as any

other electrical medical device, should

consult their physician about the usage of

the wireless charger.

Operations of the wireless charger may

have an affect on medical devices.

■

To prevent damage or burns

Observe the following precautions.

●

Do not put any metallic objects

between the charging area and the

portable device while charging.

●

Do not attach metallic objects, such as

aluminum stickers, to the charging

area.

About connected portable devices

●

Portable devices compatible with the Qi

wireless charging standard can be

charged by the wireless charger. How-

ever, compatibility with all devices which

meet the Qi wireless charging standard is

not guaranteed.

●

The wireless charger is designed to sup-

ply low power electricity (5 W or less) to

a cellular phone, smartphone, or other

portable device.

●

Failure to do so may result in the possibil-

ity of fire. However, portable devices,

such as the following, can be charged

with more than 5 W.

• 7.5 W charging compatible iPhones can

be charged at 7.5 W or less.

• Portable devices which conform to WPC

Ver 1.2.4 (Extended Power profile) can

be charged at 10 W or less.

WARNING

●

Do not charge portable devices with

aluminum stickers or other metallic

objects attached to the side which

touches the charging area.

●

Do not store items on the wireless

charger instead of in an auxiliary box.

●

Do not apply force or impact to the

wireless charger.

●

Do not disassemble, modify or remove

the wireless charger.

●

Do not attempt to charge portable

devices which are not compatible with

the Qi wireless charging standard.

●

Do not allow magnetic objects to

come near the wireless charge

●

Do not perform charging if the

charging area is dirty

●

Do not cover the wireless charger with

a cloth or other object while charging.

NOTICE

■

Preventing malfunction and corrup-

tion of data

●

Do not bring magnetic cards, such as

credit cards, or magnetic recording

media, etc., close to the charger while

charging, otherwise, data may be

erased.

Additionally, do not bring precision

instruments such as wrist watches, close

to the wireless charger, as such objects

may malfunction.

●

Do not perform charging with a con-

tactless smart card, such as a transpor-

tation system IC card, between the

charging surface of a portable device

and the charging area. The IC chip in

the card may become extremely hot,

possibly damaging the portable device

or smart card.Failure to do so may

result in the possibility of fire, equip-

ment failure or damage, or burns due

to heat.

Be extra careful to not charge a portable

device with a case or cover which a con-

tactless smart card can be inserted.

●

Do not leave portable devices in the

vehicle. The temperature inside the

vehicle may become high, when in

direct sunlight, possibly damaging the

device.

■

To prevent 12-volt battery discharge

When the EV system is stopped, do not

use the wireless charger for longer than

necessary.

Using the smart access system with

push-button start

During charging, when the smart access

system with push-button start searches for

an electronic key, charging may be tempo-

rarily suspended.

■

If a cover or accessory is attached to the

portable device

Do not charge a portable device if a cover

or accessory which is not Qi compatible is

attached.
Depending on the type of cover (including

the certain genuine manufacture parts)

and/or accessory attached, it may not be

possible to charge the portable device. If

the portable device is placed on the

charging area and does not charge, remove

the cover and/or accessories.

■

Charging precautions

While charging, the wireless charger and

the portable device will become warm. This

is not a malfunction.
If a portable device becomes warm while

charging and charging stops due to the pro-

tection function of the portable device, wait

until the portable device cools down and

charge it again.
Also, to decrease the temperature inside

the wireless charger, a fan may operate.

This does not indicate a malfunction.

■

Sound generated during operation

Operation sounds may be heard when the

power switch is pressed to change to ACC

or ON, or when a portable device is being

detected. This does not indicate a malfunc-

tion.

AM radio broadcast linked function

during charging

●

During charging, if noise occurs when lis-

tening to the AM radio, the charging fre-

quency is automatically changed to

reduce the noise.

●

Rapid charging may not be performed as

AM radio reception is prioritized.

●

When automatically seeking AM radio

stations, charging will be suspended to

prevent charging noise from being

detected as a radio station. At this time,

the operation indicator light of the

charging tray will illuminate in green and

the operation indicator light of the center

display will be gray. Charging will resume

automatically when seek tuning is

stopped.

since charging completed and the porta-

ble device has not been moved, the wire-

less charger will restart charging.

●

If a portable device is moved significantly

within the charging area, the charging

coil may disconnect and charging may

temporarily be stopped. However, if a

charging coil is detected within the

charging area, the charging coil inside

the wireless charger will move near the

other coil and charging will resume.
