- Values from the DC-DC converter (400v DC to 12v DC)

Probable Problem when you try to save energy = 12v ACID is not maintained at 14,0v-14,3v during the drive.
save energy = lights and climate are OFF + small travel + heated seat and steering wheel.
It's ok during the charge (14v) ... but if you use the 6,6 kW max power, the charge is quick and the ACID battery can not be charged at this fast rate (slow charge needed, constant voltage).
Solution for KIA is to accelerate the "storage process" that it check the 12v Auxiliary battery.
But for this, you must leave the charge cable plugged to the car 24h/24.
Regulary charge of the ACID battery happen 1-3 times over 24h when the charge cable is always plugged.
