POWER OUTLETS (INT) WIRELESS CHARGING SYSTEM SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
WIRELESS CHARGER FUNCTION OUTLINE
The wireless charging system enables Qi-compatible* rechargeable devices, such as a cellular phone, to be recharged by merely placing it on the charging area of the mobile wireless charger cradle assembly.

-
*: Qi (pronounced chee) is a wireless technology which allows devices to recharge without using any wires.
Qi-compatible devices which do not fit within the charging area cannot be used. If a Qi-compatible device does not operate normally, refer to the owner's manual of the device.
Qi-compatible rechargeable devices can be charged.

·Although the wireless charging system complies with the Qi standard compatibility with all Qi-compatible devices is not guaranteed.
CHARGING INDICATOR STATUS (for Type A)
| *a | Mobile Wireless Charger Switch |
| *b | Indicator Light (Blue) |
| *c | Charging Area |
The indicator light shows the operation condition of the wireless charging system.
| Indicator | Operation Condition | |
|---|---|---|
| Condition | Color | |
| Off | - | Wireless charging system is turned off |
| On | Blue | ·
Wireless charging system is on (stand-by) ·
Charging is complete* |
| On | Blue | ·
A rechargeable device is placed on the charging area ·
A rechargeable device is being charged |
*: Some mobile devices, cases or accessories may not cause the indicator (green) to illuminate when charging is complete, even though they are Qi-compatible. Check the mobile device to confirm the charge status.
CHARGING INDICATOR STATUS (for Type B)
| *a | Mobile Wireless Charger Switch/Indicator Light (Green/Red) |

RESUMPTION OF CHARGING
After charging is complete, if the rechargeable device is left in the same position on the charging area, charging will resume after 30 minutes elapse.
Charging will resume if the rechargeable device is moved or repositioned within the charging area, or replaced with another rechargeable device within 30 minutes of charging being completed.
If the rechargeable device is moved while it is being charged, charging will resume when the device is placed on the charging area.
- HINT:
-
If charging is stopped and resumed repeatedly due to the rechargeable device being moved or a communication error between the wireless charging system and rechargeable device, charging will be prohibited after a certain number of times to protect the rechargeable device.
SUSPENSION OF CHARGING DUE TO VERIFICATION OF ELECTRICAL KEY TRANSMITTER SUB-ASSEMBLY
The wireless charging system uses the same radio wave frequency that is used to perform verification of the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly. Therefore, when the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly verification is being performed, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) sends a charging suspension signal to the wireless charging system to suspend charging.
The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) sends the charging suspension signal when any of the following conditions is met:
A door is opened and closed.
The back door opener switch is pressed.
The back door is closed.
for HV Model:
The hybrid control system is started.
for Gasoline Model:
The ignition switch is turned to START.
An electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is not detected in the cabin.
