To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use
only lubricants of the proper quality. The correct lubricants also help promote
engine efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.

*1: Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2: Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel economy by reducing the amount of fuel
necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to
measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and
energy savings.
*
3: If the API SM & ILSAC GF-4 engine oil is not available in your country, you are able to use API SL & ILSAC GF-3
*
4: If the front/rear differential is submerged, we recommend that you visit an author- ized retailer of Genesis Branded products to replace differential oil.

Recommended SAE Viscosity Number
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or
dipstick before checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially
important in dusty or sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on
unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick areas will prevent dirt
and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that could be
damaged.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weath-
er operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine
oils can provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, howev-
er, higher viscosity engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot
weather. Using oils of any viscosity other than those recommended could
result in engine damage. When choosing an oil, consider the range of temper-
ature your vehicle will be operated in before the next oil change. Proceed to
select the recommended oil viscosity from the chart.
NOTICE
*1: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oilof a viscosity grade SAE 5W-20 (API SM / ILSAC GF-4
(or above)). However, if the engine oil is not available in your
country, select the proper engine oil using the engine oil viscos-
ity chart.

Specifications & Consumer information
The vehicle identification number
(VIN) is the number used in register-
ing your car and in all legal matters
pertaining to its ownership, etc.
The number is punched on the floor
under the passenger seat. To check
the number, open the cover.
The VIN is also on a plate attached
to the top of the dashboard. The
number on the plate can easily be
seen through the windshield from
outside. The vehicle certification label
attached on the driver's side center
pillar gives the Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN).

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or
could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying
Genesis Customer Care.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it
finds that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and
remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual
problems between you, your retailer, or Genesis Customer Care.
To contact NHTSA, you may call the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-
327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153);
go to http://www.safercar.gov;
or write to: Administrator, NHTSA 1200 New Jersey Ave, SE,
West Building Washington, D.C. 20590.
