For example, Hyundai/Kia drivers can activate the โHome Modeโ when returning from work, turning on the air conditioning, starting the vacuum cleaner, and turning on the lights. Moreover, users can also pre-start the carโs air conditioning while still inside the house. Additionally, electric car owners can use the SmartThings feature to check their homeโs energy usage and adjust the charging time.
