FUNCTION OF MAIN COMPONENTS
| Component | Function | |
|---|---|---|
| Mobile Wireless Charger Cradle Assembly | Mobile Wireless Charger Switch | Turns on/off the wireless charging system. |
| Charging Indicator | Indicates the status of the wireless charging system. | |
| Charging Area | Charges a Qi-compatible device when it is placed on the charging area with the wireless charging system on. | |
| Certification ECU (Smart Key ECU Assembly) | Sends the charging suspension signal to the mobile wireless charger cradle assembly. | |
SYSTEM CONTROL
The wireless charging system operates when both of the following conditions are met:
Power switch on (ACC) or on (IG)
Mobile wireless charger switch on (charging indicator illuminated (green))
If any of the following operations are performed with an electrical key transmitter sub-assembly present, charging may stop temporarily:
Opening/closing the doors
Pressing the back door opener switch assembly
Closing the back door
Starting the hybrid system
Moving the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly out of the detection area
Charging will resume if 30 minutes have elapsed since charging has completed and the Qi-compatible device has not been moved.
Charging will resume if the Qi-compatible device is moved or repositioned within the charging area, or replaced with another Qi-compatible device within 30 minutes after charging has completed.
If the Qi-compatible device is moved during charging, charging will resume immediately after the Qi-compatible device placed within the charging area.
If charging is stopped and resumed repeatedly due to the Qi-compatible device being moved or a communication error between the Qi-compatible device and wireless charging system, charging will be stopped to protect the Qi-compatible device.
FUNCTION
Charging frequency switching function
If noise is generated in the AM radio during charging, turn the wireless charging system off and check if the noise is reduced. If the noise is reduced, press the mobile wireless charging switch for approximately 2 seconds to change the charging frequency and reduce the noise.
Charging indicator status
Operation of the wireless charging system is indicated by the status of the charging indicator as follows:
| Charging Indicator | Operation | |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Color | |
| Not illuminated | - | Wireless charging system not operating. |
| Illuminated | Green | Wireless charging system suspended, or charging is complete* or temporarily stopped. |
| Illuminated | Amber | A Qi-compatible device is detected in the charging area and is being charged. |
| Flashing (Pattern 1) |
Amber | The wireless charging system cannot receive signals from the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly). |
| Flashing (Pattern 2) |
Amber | The charging frequency has been changed by the wireless charging system during charging. |
| Flashing (Pattern 3) |
Amber |
|
| Flashing (Pattern 4) |
Amber | The internal temperature of the mobile wireless charger cradle assembly or cellular phone is too high. |
*: The charging indicator may not illuminate (green) after charging is completed using a Qi-compatible device, case or accessory. In this case, it is necessary to confirm the charging status on the Qi-compatible device.
