The USB charging ports are used to supply 2.5 A (USB Type-A port)
or 3.0 A (USB Type-C port) of electricity at 5 V to external devices. 
The USB charging ports are for charging only. They are not designed
for data transfer or other purposes.
Depending on the external device, it may not charge properly. Refer to
the  manual  included  with  the  device  before  using  a  USB  charging
port.

■

Using the USB charging ports

Open  the  console  box  lid  and
open the lid.

■

The USB charging ports can be used when

The power switch is in ACCESSORY or ON mode.

■

Situations in which the USB charging ports may not operate correctly

●

If a device which consumes more than 2.5 A at 5 V (USB Type-A port) or 3.0
A at 5 V (USB Type-C port) is connected

●

If a device designed to communicate with a personal computer, such as a
USB memory device, is connected

●

If the connected external device is turned off (depending on device)

●

If the temperature inside the vehicle is high, such as after the vehicle has
been parked in the sun

A  portable  device,  such  as  a  smartphone  or  mobile  battery,  can  be
charged by just placing it on the charging area, provided the device is
compatible  with  the  Qi  wireless  charging  standard  created  by  the
Wireless Power Consortium.
The  wireless  charger  cannot  be  used  with  a  portable  device  that  is
larger than the charging area. Additionally, depending on the portable
device,  the  wireless  charger  may  not  operate  properly.  Refer  to  the
operation manual of the portable device.

and the wireless charger contain
charging coils. The charging coil
inside  the  wireless  charger  can
move within the area around the

When the charging coil inside a
portable  device  is  detected
within  the  charging  area,  the
charging  coil  in  the  wireless
charger will move near the other
coil  and  charging  will  begin.  If
the charging coil inside the por-
table device is moved out of the
charging  area,  charging  will  be
stopped automatically.

Additionally,  if  2  or  more  portable  devices  are  placed  on  the  charging
tray at the same time, each charging coil may not be detected correctly
and charging may not be possible.

Using the wireless charger

Press  the  power  supply
switch  of  the  wireless  char-
ger.

Pressing  the  switch  again  turns
the wireless charger off.
When  turned  on,  the  operation
indicator light (green) comes on.
When the power switch is turned
off,  the  on/off  state  of  the  wire-
less charger will be memorized.
If  the  power  supply  switch  is  pressed  3  times  while  charging  is  being
performed, the rapid charging function will turn on. To turn the wireless
charger off, press the power supply switch when a portable device is not
being charged.

Place  a  portable  device  on
the charging tray.

Place  the  portable  device  so
that it is centered in the charging
area  with  its  charging  surface
facing  the  portable  charger.
Depending  on  the  portable
device, its charging coil may not
be in the center of the device. In
this  case,  place  the  portable
device so that its charging coil is
centered in the charging area.
While charging, the operation indicator light (orange) will be illuminated.
If  charging  does  not  begin,  move  the  portable  device  as  close  to  the
center of the charging area as possible.
When charging is complete, the operation indicator light (green) will illu-
minate.

Recharging function

●

If a certain amount of time has elapsed since charging completed
and the portable device has not been moved, the wireless char-
ger will restart charging.

●

If  a  portable  device  is  moved  significantly  within  the  charging
area, the charging coil may disconnect and charging may tempo-
rarily be stopped. However, if a charging coil is detected within
the charging area, the charging coil inside the wireless charger
will move near the other coil and charging will resume.

To  turn  the  rapid  charging  function  on,  press  the  power  supply
switch  3  times  while  charging  is  being  performed.  If  rapid
charging is possible, the operation indicator will change from illu-
minated (orange) to alternating between (green) and (orange).

●

When  charging  is  finished,  the  rapid  charging  function  will  turn
off. To perform rapid charging again, turn the rapid charging func-
tion back on.

The wireless charger can be operated when

The power switch is in ACCESSORY or ON mode.

■

Portable devices that can be charged

●

Portable devices compatible with the Qi wireless charging standard can be
charged  by  the  wireless  charger.  However,  compatibility  with  all  devices
which meet the Qi wireless charging standard is not guaranteed.

●

The  wireless  charger  is  designed  to  supply  low  power  electricity  (5  W  or
less) to a cellular phone, smartphone, or other portable device.

●

However, portable devices, such as the following, can be charged with more
than 5 W.
• 7.5 W charging compatible iPhones can be charged at 7.5 W or less.
• Portable devices which conform to WPC Ver 1.2.4 can be charged at 10

W or less.

■

Using the smart key system

During charging, when the smart key system searches for an electronic key,
charging may be temporarily suspended.

■

If a cover or accessory is attached to the portable device

Do not charge a portable device if a cover or accessory which is not Qi com-
patible  is  attached.  Depending  on  the  type  of  cover  and/or  accessory
attached, it may not be possible to charge the portable device. If the portable
device is placed on the charging area and does not charge, remove the cover
and/or accessories.

■

If interference is heard in AM radio broadcasts while charging

●

Turn off the wireless charger and check if the noise is reduced. If noise is
reduced, press and hold the power supply switch of the wireless charger for
2 seconds. The frequency of the wireless charger is changed and noise may
be  reduced.  When  the  frequency  is  changed,  the  operation  indicator  light
will blink (orange) 2 times.

●

Rapid  charging  for  iPhones  is  performed  using  a  specific  radio  wave  fre-
quency.
Depending  on  the  version  of  iOS  installed,  while  the  frequency  is  being
changed, rapid charging may not be performed.

■

Charging precautions

While  charging,  the  wireless  charger  and  the  portable  device  will  become
warm. This is not a malfunction.
If a portable device becomes warm while charging and charging stops due to
the protection function of the portable device, wait until the portable device
cools down and charge it again.
Also,  to  decrease  the  temperature  inside  the  wireless  charger,  a  fan  may
operate. This does not indicate a malfunction.

Situations in which the wireless charger may not operate correctly

In the following situations, the wireless charger may not operate correctly:

●

When a portable device is fully charged

●

When a portable device is being charged by a wired connection.

●

When there is foreign matter between the charging area and portable device

●

When the temperature of a portable device becomes high while charging

●

When the temperature near the charging tray is 95°F (35°C) or more due to
being in direct sunlight, etc.

●

When a portable device is placed with its charging surface facing up

●

When a portable device is not centered on the charging area

●

When a portable device is larger than the charging tray

●

When a foldable portable device is placed outside of the charging area

●

When the vehicle is near a TV tower, electric power plant, fuel station, radio
station,  large  display,  airport,  or  other  facility  that  generates  strong  radio
waves or electrical noise

●

When the any of the following objects, with a thickness of 0.08 in. (2 mm) or
more,  are  between  the  charging  surface  of  a  portable  device  and  the
charging area:
• Thick cases or covers
• Thick decorations
• Accessories, such as finger rings, straps, etc.

●

When the portable device is in contact with, or is covered by any of the fol-
lowing metallic objects:
• Cards covered with metal, such as aluminum foil
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
• Coins
• Heat packs
• Recorded media such as CDs and DVDs

are being used nearby

●

When  2  or  more  portable  devices  are  placed  on  the  charging  tray  at  the
same time

In situations other than above, if the wireless charger does not operate prop-
erly or the operation indicator light blinks continuously, the wireless charger
may be malfunctioning.
