How do I remotely start the vehicle?

  2. Within 4 seconds, press and hold the remote start button for more than 2 seconds.
  3. The vehicle must be in P (Park), and remote start will not work if the hood or tailgate is open.

Why does my estimated driving range change?

2026

Distance to empty is an estimate that varies with drive mode, driving habits, power use, weather, temperature, terrain, battery condition, traffic, and speed.

Page 91 in the 2026 manual →

2023–2025

The displayed distance to empty reflects charge level, driving habits, power use, weather, temperature, terrain, traffic, speed, battery temperature, and battery health, so it can differ from certified figures.

Cold-weather reduction can reverse as the battery warms, but natural battery degradation over the years may reduce range; setting a destination can also recalculate the display.

What should I do when the high-voltage battery warning light appears?

2026

The warning appears below 20% battery charge; immediately charge at a nearby station because the vehicle may not operate properly under some conditions.

If the battery reaches 0%, do not drive; move to a safe place and call for help.

What should I do if jump starting does not work?

2026

If the vehicle does not start after a few attempts, seek qualified assistance and have it inspected by a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.

What should I check if my IONIQ 6 will not start?

2026

Confirm the EV battery is not low, select P (Park), check that the 12 V battery connections are clean and tight, and use the interior light; dimming when starting indicates a drained 12 V battery, so do not push or pull-start the vehicle.

When should I replace the cabin air filter?

2026

Replace the cabin air filter according to the maintenance schedule, or inspect and replace it sooner after prolonged driving in severely polluted cities or on dusty, rough roads.

Page 554 in the 2026 manual →

2023–2025

An authorized HYUNDAI dealer should replace the cabin air filter on the maintenance schedule; driving on dusty or rough roads calls for inspections and changes more often.

Page 272 in the 2025 manual →

What should I check if remote start does not work?

2026

Keep the smart key within 32 ft. (10 m), and make sure the bonnet and boot are closed.

After remote starting, enter the vehicle within 10 minutes; a registered smart key is required to keep it running.

What should I do if the charging cable or connector is damaged?

2023–2025

Replace a cable with damaged coating or a damaged connector, and do not use a connector or plug showing damage, corrosion, rust, or a loose connection; have the vehicle inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

How can I prevent the exterior lights from draining the battery when I exit?

2023–2025

If you exit through a door other than the driver door, turn off the headlights manually before leaving because the battery saver and headlight delay functions will not turn them off automatically.

Page 250 in the 2025 manual →

How do I turn on the exterior headlights?

2023–2025

Turn the knob at the end of the control lever to AUTO for automatic lighting or Headlight for manual headlights; the Start/Stop button must be ON for headlights.

Even in AUTO, manually turn on the headlights at night, in fog or rain, or in dark areas such as tunnels and parking facilities.

How can I lock a door if it has no outside keyhole?

2023–2025

  2. Turn the tool clockwise for a left-side door or counterclockwise for a right-side door, then close the door securely.

What should I do if the Parking Brake and Brake Fluid warning light comes on?

2023–2025

  1. If the parking brake is released, the light indicates that the brake fluid level is low.
  2. Drive carefully to the nearest safe location and stop the vehicle.
  3. With the motor stopped, check the reservoir immediately, add fluid as required, and check all brake components for leaks.
  4. Do not drive if a leak is found, the warning remains on, or the brakes do not operate properly; have the vehicle inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
