Information
The ESC system must be turned OFF
before rocking the vehicle.
If you are still stuck after rocking
the vehicle a few times, have the
vehicle pulled out by a tow vehicle
to avoid engine overheating, pos-
sible damage to the transmission,
and tire damage. See "Towing" in
chapter 6.
Smooth Cornering
Avoid braking or gear changing in
corners, especially when roads are
wet. Ideally, corners should always
be taken under gentle acceleration.
Driving at Night
Night driving presents more hazards
than driving in the daylight. Here are
some important tips to remember:
Slow down and keep more dis-tance between you and other vehi-
cles, as it may be more difficult to
see at night, especially in areas
where there may not be any street
lights.
Adjust your mirrors to reduce the glare from other driver's head-
lamps.
Keep your headlamps clean and properly aimed. Dirty or improperly
aimed headlamps will make it
much more difficult to see at night.
Avoid staring directly at the head- lamps of oncoming vehicles. You
could be temporarily blinded, and it
will take several seconds for your
eyes to readjust to the darkness.
Driving in the Rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous. Here are a few things to
consider when driving in the rain or
on slick pavement:
Slow down and allow extra follow-ing distance. A heavy rainfall
makes it harder to see and increas-
es the distance needed to stop
your vehicle.
Turn OFF your Cruise Control.
Replace your windshield wiper blades when they show signs of
streaking or missing areas on the
windshield.
Be sure your tires have enough tread. If your tires do not have
enough tread, making a quick stop
on wet pavement can cause a skid
and possibly lead to an accident.
See "Tire Tread" in chapter 7.
Turn on your headlamps to make it easier for others to see you.
Driving too fast through large pud- dles can affect your brakes. If you
must go through puddles, try to
drive through them slowly.
If you believe your brakes may be wet, apply them lightly while driv-
ing until normal braking operation
returns.
Hydroplaning
If the road is wet enough and you are
going fast enough, your vehicle may
have little or no contact with the road
surface and actually ride on the
water. The best advice is SLOW
DOWN when the road is wet.
The risk of hydroplaning increases
as the depth of tire tread decreas-
es, refer to "Tire Tread" in chapter 7.

The severe weather conditions of winter quickly wear out tires and cause
other problems. To minimize winter driving problems, you should take the fol-
lowing suggestions:
Snow or Icy Conditions
You need to keep sufficient distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding, rapid acceleration, sudden brake applica-
tions, and sharp turns are potentially very hazardous practices. During decel-
eration, use engine braking to the fullest extent. Sudden brake applications on
snowy or icy roads may cause the vehicle to skid.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to use snow tires or
to install tire chains on your tires.
Always carry emergency equipment. Some of the items you may want to carry
include tire chains, tow straps or chains, a flashlight, emergency flares, sand,
a shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a
blanket, etc.
We recommend you use snow tires when road temperature is below 45°F
(7°C). Refer to the below chart, and mount the recommended snow tire for
your vehicle.
If you mount snow tires on your vehicle, make sure to use the same inflation
pressure as the original tires. However, if you mount 245/45R19 size tire on
the rear, the tire inflation pressure should maintain 35psi. Mount snow tires on
all four wheels to balance your vehicle's handling in all weather conditions.
The traction provided by snow tires on dry road may not be as high as your
vehicle's original equipment tires. Check with the tire dealer for maximum
speed recommendations.
Information
Do not install studded tires without first checking local, state and municipal reg-
ulations for possible restrictions against their use.

An inappropriately disposedbattery can be harmful to the
environment and human
health. Dispose the battery
according to your local law(s)
or regulations.
To prevent damage to your vehi-
cle:
Only use a 12-volt power supply (battery or jumper system) to
jump start your vehicle.
Do not attempt to jump start your vehicle by push-starting.
Jump starting procedure
Information
Your vehicle has a battery in the trunk
compartment, but when you jump
start your vehicle, use the jumper ter-
minal in the engine compartment.
1. Position the vehicles close enough that the jumper cables will reach,
but do not allow the vehicles to
touch.
2. Avoid fans or any moving parts in the engine compartment at all
times, even when the vehicles are
turned off.
3. Turn off all electrical devices such as radios, lights, air conditioning,
etc. Put the vehicles in P (Park)
and set the parking brakes. Turn
both vehicles OFF.
4. Open the engine hood. 5. Open the small service cover with
a screwdriver.
6. Remove the engine room fuse box cover.
7. Connect the jumper cables in the exact sequence shown in the illus-
tration. First connect one jumper
cable to the red, positive (+)
jumper terminal of your vehicle (1).
8. Connect the other end of the jumper cable to the red, positive
(+) battery/jumper terminal of the
assisting vehicle (2).

What to do in an emergency
Changing a Tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure and LCD position indicator
will come on. Have the flat tire
repaired by an authorized Dealer of
Genesis Brand Products as soon as
possible or replace the flat tire with
the spare tire.
Never use a puncture-repairing
agent not approved by Dealer of
Genesis Brand Products to repair
and/or inflate a low pressure tire.
Tire sealant not approved by
Dealer of Genesis Brand Products
may damage the tire pressure
sensor.
The spare tire does not come with a
tire pressure monitoring sensor.
When the low pressure tire or the flat
tire is replaced with the spare tire,
the Low Tire Pressure LCD position
indicator will remain on. Also, the
TPMS Malfunction Indicator will illu-
minate after blinking for one minute if
the vehicle is driven at speed above
15.5 mph (25 km/h) for approximate-
ly 20 minutes.
Once the original tire equipped with
a tire pressure monitoring sensor is
reinflated to the recommended pres-
sure and reinstalled on the vehicle,
the Low Tire Pressure LCD position
indicator and TPMS Malfunction
Indicator will go off within a few min-
utes of driving.
If the indicators do not disappear
after a few minutes, please visit an
authorized Dealer of Genesis Brand
Products.Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tire behind the valve stem (except for
the spare tire). You must use TPMS
specific wheels. It is recommended
that you always have your tires serv-
iced by an authorized Dealer of
Genesis Brand Products.
A cold tire means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven for
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3
hour period.
Allow the tire to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tire is cold before inflating to
the recommended pressure.
NOTICE
The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tire dam-
age caused by external fac-
tors such as nails or road
debris.
If you feel any vehicle instabil- ity, immediately take your foot
off the accelerator, apply the
brakes gradually with light
force, and slowly move to a
safe position off the road.

Owner Maintenance Schedule
When you stop for fuel:
• Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in the enginecoolant reservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
Check for low or under-inflated tires.
While operating your vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound ofthe exhaust or any smell of exhaust
fumes in the vehicle.
Check for vibrations in the steering wheel. Notice if there is any
increased steering effort or loose-
ness in the steering wheel, or
change in its straight-ahead posi-
tion.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or "pulls" to one side
when traveling on smooth, level
road.
When stopping, listen and check for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or "hard-to-push" brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the operation of your transmission
occurs, check the transmission
fluid level.
Check the automatic transmission P (Park) function.
Check the parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
At least monthly:
Check coolant level in the enginecoolant reservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior lights, including the brake lights,
turn signals and hazard warning
flashers.
Check the inflation pressures of all tires including the spare for tires
that are worn, show uneven wear,
or are damaged.
Check for loose wheel lug nuts.
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. This may result in
coolant being blown out of the
opening and cause serious
burns and other injuries.
