Kia Soul EV (PS EV) 2015-2020 Service Manual / Body Electrical System / Indicators And Gauges / Instrument Cluster Description and Operation

Description

Mian Features

Power and charge guage

(1)	It displays the degree of economic driving by identifying the status of a driver''s operation, depending on a vehicle''s driving conditions (e.g., required power, system efficiency and charging).

(2)	It leads to economic driving by informing the driver of the optimal driving conditions depending on the vehicle''s conditions.

(3)	It displays that ECO guide and power segment will operate during driving, and also indicates the state of regenerative braking when a charge zone is instructed while driving.

SOC (State Of Charge) guage

(1)	It displays the amount of charge of high-voltage battery.

(2)

It displays the charged amount of SOC received from BMS module on the digital gauge in the instrument cluster (as follows).

ECO Level Display

(1)	It displays the degree of the driver''s economic driving via ECO level.

(2)	It displays the ECO level in OLED from Steps 1 to 8.

Energy Flow

(1)	It displays graphical energy flow of an EV vehicle to inform the driver of the vehicle information.

(2)	It leads to economic driving by showing the energy flow diagram by means of intuitive images.

(3)	It displays three states of energy flow of the EV vehicle graphically.

(4)	VCU module receives operation mode CAN signals to implement any relevant animation.

Other indicators and warning lamps

The status between C-CAN transmission modules, operating various indicator and warning lamps on the PS EV cluster, is shown. Referring to the following descriptions, any checking point or operating point can be identified in the event of inoperation of relevant function.
