System malfunction
When the "Check Driver Attention
Warning (DAW) system" warning
message appears, the system is not
working properly. In this case, we
recommend you to have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
The Driver Attention Warning
(DAW) system utilizes the camera
sensor on the front windshield for its
operation.
To keep the camera sensor in the
best condition, you should observe
the followings:
• Do not disassemble camera tem-
porarily for tinted window or
attaching any types of coatings and
accessories. If you disassemble a
camera and assemble it again, take
your vehicle to an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded prod-
ucts and have the system checked
to need a calibration.
• Do not locate any reflective
objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the instrument panel. Any
light reflection may cause a mal-
function of the Driver Attention
Warning (DAW) system.
• Pay extreme caution to keep the
camera sensor out of water.
(Continued)
The Driver Attention Warning
(DAW) system is not a substi-
tute for safe driving practices,
but a convenience function
only. It is the responsibility of
the driver to always drive cau-
tiously to prevent unexpected
and sudden situations from
occurring. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
It may suggest a break
according to the driver's driv-
ing pattern or habits even if
the driver doesn't feel
fatigued.
The driver, who feels fatigued,
should take a break, even
though there is no break sug-
gestion by the Driver Attention
Warning (DAW) system.

Hazardous driving conditions
When hazardous driving conditions
are encountered such as water,
snow, ice, mud or sand:
Drive cautiously and allow extra dis-
tance for braking.
Avoid sudden movements in braking
or steering.
If stuck in snow, mud, or sand, use
second gear. Accelerate slowly to
avoid spinning the drive wheels.
Use sand, rock salt, or other non-slip
material under the drive wheels to
provide traction when stuck in ice,
snow, or mud.
Rocking the vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle
to free it from snow, sand, or mud,
first turn the steering wheel right and
left to clear the area around your
front wheels. Then, shift back and
forth between R (Reverse) and a for-
ward gear.
Try to avoid spinning the wheels, and
do not race the engine.
To prevent transmission wear, wait
until the wheels stop spinning before
shifting gears. Release the accelera-
tor pedal while shifting, and press
lightly on the accelerator pedal while
the transmission is in gear. Slowly
spinning the wheels in forward and
reverse directions causes a rocking
motion that may free the vehicle.

Downshifting with an automatic
transmission while driving on
slippery surfaces can cause an
accident. The sudden change in
tire speed could cause the tires
to skid. Be careful when down-
shifting on slippery surfaces.
WARNING
If the tires spin at high speed the
tires can explode, and you or
others may be injured. Do not
attempt this procedure if people
or objects are anywhere near the
vehicle.
The vehicle can overheat caus-
ing an engine compartment fire
or other damage. Spin the
wheels as little as possible and
avoid spinning the wheels at
speeds over 35 mph (56 km/h) as
indicated on the speedometer.
WARNING

6-2
The hazard warning flasher serves
as a warning to other drivers to exer-
cise extreme caution when
approaching, overtaking, or passing
your vehicle.
It should be used whenever emer-
gency repairs are being made or
when the vehicle is stopped near the
edge of a roadway.
To turn the hazard warning flasher
on or off, press the hazard warning
flasher button with the Engine Start/
Stop button in any position. The but-
ton is located in the center fascia
panel. All turn signal lights will flash
simultaneously.• The hazard warning flasher oper-
ates whether your vehicle is run-
ning or not.
The turn signals do not work when
the hazard flasher is on.
If the engine stalls while driving
Reduce your speed gradually,
keeping a straight line. Move cau-
tiously off the road to a safe place.
Turn on your hazard warning flash-
er.
Try to start the engine again. If your
vehicle will not start, contact an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products or seek other
qualified assistance.
If the engine stalls at a cross-
road or crossing
If the engine stalls at a crossroad or
crossing, if safe to do so, move the
shift lever to the N (Neutral) position
and then push the vehicle to a safe
location.

What to do in an emergency
If you have a flat tire while
driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal and let the vehicle slow down
while driving straight ahead. Do not
apply the brakes immediately or
attempt to pull off the road as this
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident. When the
vehicle has slowed to such a speed
that it is safe to do so, brake care-
fully and pull off the road. Drive off
the road as far as possible and park
on firm, level ground. If you are on
a divided highway, do not park in
the median area between the two
traffic lanes.
When the vehicle is stopped, press
the hazard warning flasher button,
move the shift lever into P (Park),
and apply the parking brake, and
place the Engine Start/Stop button
in the OFF position.
Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle. Be sure they all get out on
the side of the vehicle that is away
from traffic.
When changing a flat tire, follow
the instructions provided later in
this chapter.
If the engine doesn't turn over
or turns over slowly
Be sure the shift lever is in N
(Neutral) or P (Park). The engine
starts only when the shift lever is in
N (Neutral) or P (Park).
Check the battery connections to
be sure they are clean and tight.
Turn on the interior light. If the light
dims or goes out when you operate
the starter, the battery is drained.
Do not push or pull the vehicle to
start it. This could cause damage to
your vehicle. See instructions for
"Jump Starting" provided in this
chapter.
If the engine turns over nor-
mally but doesn't start
Check the fuel level and add fuel if
necessary.
If the engine still does not start, have
your vehicle checked by an author-
ized retailer of Genesis Branded
products.

NOTICE
If any of the below happens, have
the system checked by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded prod-
ucts.
1. The Low Tire Pressure Telltale/
TPMS Malfunction Indicator
does not illuminate for 3 seconds
when the Engine Start/Stop but-
ton is turned to the ON position
or engine is running.
2. The TPMS Malfunction Indicator

ing for approximately 1 minute.
3. The Low Tire Pressure Position
Telltale remains illuminated.
Low tire pressure
telltale
Low tire pres-
sure position
and tire pres-
sure telltale
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated and warning message dis-
played on the cluster LCD display,
one or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated. The Low Tire
Pressure Position Telltale will indi-
cate which tire is significantly under-
inflated by illuminating the corre-
sponding position light.
If either telltale illuminates, immedi-
ately reduce your speed, avoid hard
cornering and anticipate increased
stopping distances. You should stop
and check your tires as soon as pos-
sible. Inflate the tires to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehi-
cle's placard or tire inflation pressure
label located on the driver's side cen-
ter pillar outer panel.If you cannot reach a service station
or if the tire cannot hold the newly
added air, replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire.
The Low Tire Pressure Telltale will
remain on and the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator may blink for one minute
and then remain illuminated (when
the vehicle is driven approximately
20 minutes at speed above 15.5 mph
(25 km/h)) until you have the low
pressure tire repaired and replaced
on the vehicle.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
The spare tire is not equipped with a
tire pressure sensor.

What to do in an emergency
You may not be able to identify a tire
with low pressure by simply looking
at it. Always use a good quality tire
pressure gauge to measure. Please
note that a tire that is hot (from being
driven) will have a higher pressure
measurement than a tire that is cold.
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.
✽ ✽

Maintenance
Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
• Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in the engine
coolant reservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid
level.
Check for low or under-inflated
tires.
While operating your vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound of
the 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 engine
coolant reservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior
lights, including the stoplights, turn
signals and hazard warning flash-
ers.
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.
