Engine Start/Stop
button with shift
lever in P (Park).
Also, the engine

when the button is
in the OFF position
without depressing
the brake pedal.

ton in the ACC position for more than
one hour, the battery power will turn

tery from discharging.Press the Engine
Start/Stop button
while it is in the
ACC position with-
out depressing the
brake pedal.
The warning lights can be checked
before the engine is
started.

pedal and press the
Engine Start/Stop
button with the shift

steering wheel for the Engine
Start/Stop button or any other
control while the vehicle is in
motion. The presence of your
hand or arm in this area may
cause a loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.

9. Connect the second jumper cableto the black, negative (-) battery/
chassis ground of the assisting
vehicle (3).
10. Connect the other end of the sec- ond jumper cable to the black,
negative (-) chassis ground of
your vehicle (4).
Do not allow the jumper cables to
contact anything except the cor-
rect battery or jumper terminals
or the correct ground. Do not
lean over the battery when mak-
ing connections.
11. Start the engine of the assisting vehicle and let it run at approxi-
mately 2,000 rpm for a few min-
utes. Then start your vehicle.
12. Keep your vehicle operating for at least 30 minutes at idle or driving
to assure your battery receives
enough charge to be able to start
on its own after the vehicle is
shut off. A complete dead battery
may require as long as 60 min-
utes runtime to fully recharge it. If
vehicle is run for less, the battery
may not restart. If you continue to
have problem, have your Dealer
of Genesis Brand Products test
the battery.
If your vehicle will not start after a
few attempts, it probably requires
servicing. In this event please seek
qualified assistance. If the cause of
your battery discharging is not
apparent, have your vehicle checked
by an authorized Dealer of Genesis
Brand Products. Disconnect the jumper cables in the
exact reverse order you connected
them:
1. Disconnect the jumper cable from
the black, negative (-) chassis
ground of your vehicle (4).
2. Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the black, neg-
ative (-) battery/chassis ground of
the assisting vehicle (3).
3. Disconnect the second jumper cable from the red, positive (+)
battery/jumper terminal of the
assisting vehicle (2).
4. Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the red, positive
(+) jumper terminal of your vehicle
(1).

Vehicles equipped with automatic
transmission cannot be push-start-
ed.

Battery Recharging
By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes dischargedin a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlights or interior lights
were left on while the vehicle was
not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours.
AGM battery
Absorbent Glass Matt (AGM) batteries are maintenance-free
and we recommend that the
AGM battery be serviced by an
authorized Dealer of Genesis
Brand Products. For charging
your AGM battery, use only fully
automatic battery chargers that
are specially developed for AGM
batteries.
When replacing the AGM bat- tery, we recommend that you
use parts for replacement from
an authorized Dealer of Genesis
Brand Products.
Do not open or remove the cap on top of the battery. This may
cause leaks of internal elec-
trolyte that could result in
severe injury.
NOTICE
Always follow these instruc-
tions when recharging your
vehicle's battery to avoid the
risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH from explosions or acid
burns:
Before performing mainte-nance or recharging the bat-
tery, turn off all accessories
and press the Engine Start/
Stop button to the OFF posi-
tion.
Keep all flames, sparks, or smoking materials away from
the battery.
Always work outdoors or in an area with plenty of ventilation.
Wear eye protection when checking the battery during
charging.
The battery must be removed from the vehicle and placed in
a well ventilated area.
Watch the battery during charging, and stop or reduce
the charging rate if the battery
cells begin boiling violently.
