sound and the hazard warning lights
will blink continuously if any of the
following occurs:
- A door is opened without using the smart key.

- The engine hood is opened.
The alarm continues for 30 seconds,
then the system resets. To turn off
the alarm, unlock the doors with the
smart key.

cally sets 30 seconds after you lock
the doors and the trunk. For the sys-
tem to activate, you must lock the

the hood, the trunk, or any door is
not fully closed. If the system will not
set, check the hood, the trunk, or the
doors are fully closed.

using the mechanical key or start
the engine by directly pressing the
Engine Start/Stop button with the

Power trunk non-opening orclosing conditions:
The Power Trunk will not open or
close automatically, when the vehi-
cle is moving more than 1.8 mph (3
km/h).
The Power Trunk can be operated when the engine is not running.
However, the Power Trunk operation
consumes large amounts of vehicle
electric power. To prevent the bat-
tery from draining, do not operate it
excessively (e.g., more than
approximately 10 times repeatedly.)
Do not modify or repair any part of the Power Trunk by yourself. This
must be done by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded prod-
ucts.
Before jacking up the vehicle to change a tire or repair the vehicle,
open the Power Trunk. Do not oper-
ate the Power Trunk when the vehi-
cle is raised or this could cause the
Power Trunk to operate improperly.
i
NOTICEi

unattended in your vehicle.
Children or animals might oper-
ate the power trunk that could
result in injury to themselves or
others, or damage to the vehicle.
WARNING
Always keep the trunk lid com-
pletely closed while the vehicle is
in motion. If it is left open or ajar,
poisonous exhaust gases con-
taining carbon monoxide (CO)
may enter the vehicle and seri-
ous illness or death may result.
WARNING
Make sure there are no people
or objects around the trunk
before opening or closing the
Power Trunk. Wait until the trunk
is open fully and stopped before
loading or unloading cargo from
the vehicle.
WARNING

If there are obstacles such as snowon the Power Trunk, it may not open
automatically. After removing the
obstacle, try to open it again.
Automatic stop and reverse
If, during power opening or closing,
the trunk is blocked by an object or
part of someone's body, the power
trunk will detect the resistance and it
will stop movement or move to the
full open position to allow the object
to be cleared.
However, if the resistance is weak
such as from an object that is thin or
soft, or the trunk is near the latched
position, the automatic stop and
reversal may not detect the resist-
ance and the closing operation will
continue. Also, if the Power Trunk is
forced by a strong impact, the auto-
matic stop and reversal may operate.
If the automatic stop and reverse fea-
ture operates more than twice during
one opening or closing operation, the
Power Trunk may stop at that posi-
tion. If this occurs, close the trunk
manually and operate the trunk auto-
matically again.To reset the power trunk
If the battery has been discharged or
disconnected, or if the related fuse
has been replaced or disconnected,
reset the Power Trunk as follows:
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park) position.
2. Close the trunk manually.
If the Power Trunk doesn't work prop-
erly after performing the above proce-
dure, have the system checked by an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.

WARNING

Trunk lid control button
When the trunk lid control button is in
the UNLOCK (button not pressed)
position, the power trunk can be con-
trolled with the power trunk main
control button, power trunk open,
close button, and the smart key.
When this trunk lid control button is in
the LOCK (button pressed) position,
the power trunk can be controlled
using the mechanical key of the
smart key only.
The smart trunk does not operate,
when the trunk lid control button is
pressed to the LOCK position.
Even though the trunk lid control but-
ton is in the LOCK (button pressed)
position, the trunk will still be pro-
pelled upward by mechanical force if
the trunk is manually opened more
than 10 degrees beyond the fully
closed position. In addition, if the
trunk is manually closed to the sec-
ondary latch position, the trunk will
be electrically moved to the fully
latched position. Close the trunk, and keep the
trunk lid control button in the
LOCK (button pressed) position
before washing the vehicle in an
automatic car wash.

If the trunk lid control button is in the
LOCK position, the Smart Trunk sys-
tem will also be deactivated.

Emergency Trunk Safety
Release
Your vehicle is equipped with an
Emergency Trunk Safety Release

OHI046023N
You and your passengersmust be aware of the location
of the Emergency Trunk Safety
Release lever in this vehicle
and how to open the trunk in
case you are accidentally
locked in the trunk.
(Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
NEVER allow anyone to occupythe trunk of the vehicle at any
time. If the trunk is partially or
totally latched and the person
is unable to get out, serious
injury or death could occur due
to lack of ventilation, exhaust
fumes and rapid heat build-up,
or because of exposure to cold
weather conditions. The trunk
is also a highly dangerous loca-
tion in the event of a crash
because it is not a protected
occupant space but is a part of
the vehicle's crush zone.
Your vehicle should be kept locked and the Smart Key
should be kept out of the
reach of children. Parents
should teach their children
about the dangers of playing
in trunks.
Use the release lever for emer- gencies only.
