Hyundai Santa Fe: Wireless Power Charger System / Description and operating principle
Description and Operation |
Wireless Power Charger System
During ACC or IG ON, battery voltage is supplied to the wireless power charger
system to transmit an output of 5 W to mobile phone.
Mobile phones certified with the wireless charging standard WPC (Qi 1.1.2) or
equipped with an exclusive wireless charging case can be used.
•
|
WPC : Wireless Power Consortium
|
•
|
Qi 1.1.2 : refers to certified product with the capability to
transmit power of up to 5 W and detect metal and other impurities
to prevent heating.
|
|
1. |
Power receiver : embedded with the secondary coil designed to receive
the induced current from the charging pad.
|
2. |
Charging pad : electrical coils wound inside the plastic cover.
|
3. |
Coil : Rectangular and circular coils generate diverse electromagnetic
fields.
A. |
Connect power to the charging pad to generate electromagnetic
fields in the coil.
|
B. |
Current induced from electromagnetic induction phenomenon is
sent to the power receiver to charge the battery.

|
|
|
|
2. |
Alert for contact with mobile phone
(1) |
Activation method
a. |

|
b. |
Checks if the mobile phone is placed on the wireless
charging unit.
|
c. |
Alert message for contact with mobile phone is displayed
on the instrument panel (for about 4 - 5 seconds).
|
|
|
3. |
Overheating prevention
(1) |
Activation method
a. |
If the thermistor temperature inside the wireless charging
module rises above a certain level (158 °F (70 °C)),
charging will stop to protect the mobile phone battery.
• |
The amber LED of the charging display
lamp blinks 10 times for 10 seconds,
and then it is turned off for 50 seconds
(total 60 seconds).
|
• |
The process is repeated for every 60
seconds.
|
|
|
b. |
If the thermistor temperature falls below a certain
level (149 °F (65 °C)), charging will restart.
When the charging function is restarted, the
amber LED of the charging display lamp will
be turned on.
|
|
|
|
4. |
Foreign matter detection
(1) |
Charging will be stopped if there is a coin or other metallic
object between the wireless charging unit and the mobile phone.
[Foreign matter]
• |
Foreign matter : All metallic objects such as
coins, clips, and precious metals
|
• |
The amber LED of the charging display lamp blinks
10 times for 10 seconds, and then it is turned
off for 50 seconds (total 60 seconds).
|
• |
The process is repeated for every 60 seconds.
|
|
Be careful as touching the foreign matter by hand may
cause burns.
|
|
(2) |
After the system has detected foreign matter and stopped charging
the mobile phone, the charging will resume in about 60 seconds
once the foreign matter has been removed.
When the charging function is restarted, the amber LED
of the charging display lamp will be turned on.
|
|
|
5. |
SMK unit LF frequency interference prevention
This function prevents interference between the wireless charging frequency
and smart key unit frequency band.
(1) |
Wireless charging is stopped when the door is open or the SMK
unit is in LF mode (searching for smart key).
e.g. Wireless charging function is stopped if the driver carries
the smart key out of the vehicle during IG ON.
Charging will stop and the amber LED of the charging
display lamp will turn off.
|
|
(2) |
It will return to normal operating status when the LF mode of
the SMK unit is completed.
|
|
6. |
Turn the wireless charging function ON/OFF with USM.
※ Tailgate applies to RV vehicle models.

Hitches
Information
The mounting hole for hitches are located on both sides of the underbody behind
the rear tires.
It’s important to have the correct hitch equipment. Crosswinds, large trucks
going by, and rough roads are a few reasons why you’ll need the right hitch...
