A vehicle's electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels,
one located in the driver's side panel
bolster, the other in the engine com-
partment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle's lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside the
fuse will be melted or broken.
If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver's side
fuse panel. Before replacing a blown
fuse, disconnect the negative battery
cable. Always replace a blown fuse
with one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme-
diately consult an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products.✽ ✽
NOTICE
Four kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type, multi fuse and fusible
link for higher amperage ratings.
NEVER replace a fuse with any-
thing but another fuse of the
same rating.
A higher capacity fuse could
cause damage and possibly
cause a fire.
Do not install a wire or alu-
minum foil instead of the
proper fuse - even as a tem-
porary repair. It may cause
extensive wiring damage and
possibly a fire.

Consult an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products to
replace most vehicle light bulbs. It is
difficult to replace vehicle light bulbs
because other parts of the vehicle
must be removed before you can get
to the bulb. This is especially true for
removing the headlamp assembly to
get to the bulb(s).
Removing/installing the headlamp
assembly can result in damage to
the vehicle.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
After heavy driving, rain or wash-
ing, headlamp and trunk lenses
could appear frosty. This condition
is caused by the temperature differ-
ence between the lamp inside and
the outside temperature. This is sim-
ilar to the condensation on your win-
dows inside your vehicle during the
rain and doesn’t indicate a problem
with your vehicle. If the water leaks
into the lamp bulb circuitry, have
your vehicle checked by an author-
ized retailer of Genesis Branded
products.
Headlamp, position lamp, turn
signal lamp, side marker and
front fog lamp bulb replace-
ment
(1) Turn signal lamp
(2) Headlamp (High/Low)
(3) Side marker
(4) Position lamp/Daytime running
lights
(5) Fog lamp
Prior to replacing a lamp,
depress the foot brake, move
the shift lever into P (Park),
apply the parking brake press
the Engine Start/Stop button
to the OFF position, and take
the key with you when leaving
the vehicle to avoid sudden
movement of the vehicle and
to prevent possible electric
shock.
Be aware the bulbs may be
hot and may burn your fin-
gers.

Headlight (HID type) If the light bulb does not operate,
have the vehicle checked by an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
HID lamps have superior perform-
ance vs. halogen bulbs.
HID lamps are estimated by the
manufacturer to last twice as long or
longer than halogen bulbs depend-
ing on their frequency of use. They
will probably require replacement
at some point in the life of the vehi-
cle. Cycling the headlamps on and
off more than typical use will short-
en HID lamps life. HID lamps do not
fail in the same manner as halogen
incandescent lamps. If a headlamp
goes out after a period of operation
but will immediately relight when
the headlamp switch is cycled it is
likely the HID lamp needs to be
replaced. HID lighting components
are more complex than conventional
halogen bulbs thus have higher
replacement cost.
HID Headlamp low beam
Do not attempt to replace or
inspect the low beam (XENON
bulb) due to electric shock dan-
ger. If the low beam (XENON
bulb) is not working, have your
vehicle checked by an author-
ized retailer of Genesis Branded
products.
WARNING
If your vehicle is equipped with
High Intensity Discharge (HID)
headlights, these headlights
contain mercury. So if you need
to have your vehicle disposed,
you should remove the HID
Headlights before disposal. The
removed HID headlights should
be recycled, re-used or dis-
posed as hazardous waste.

Exterior care
Exterior general caution
It is very important to follow the label
directions when using any chemical
cleaner or polish. Read all warning
and caution statements that appear
on the label.
Finish maintenance
Washing
To help protect your vehicle’s finish
from rust and deterioration, wash it
thoroughly and frequently at least
once a month with lukewarm or cold
water.
If you use your vehicle for off-road
driving, you should wash it after each
off-road trip. Pay special attention to
the removal of any accumulation of
salt, dirt, mud, and other foreign
materials. Make sure the drain holes
in the lower edges of the doors and
rocker panels are kept clear and
clean.
Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,
industrial pollution and similar
deposits can damage your vehicle’s
finish if not removed immediately.Even prompt washing with plain
water may not completely remove all
these deposits. A mild soap, safe for
use on painted surfaces, should be
used.
After washing, rinse the vehicle thor-
oughly with lukewarm or cold water.
Do not allow soap to dry on the fin-
ish.
After washing the vehicle, test
the brakes while driving slowly
to see if they have been affected
by water before getting on the
road. If braking performance is
impaired, dry the brakes by
applying them lightly while
maintaining a slow forward
speed.
WARNING
Do not use strong soap,
chemical detergents or hot
water, and do not wash the
vehicle in direct sunlight or
when the body of the vehicle
is warm.
Be careful when washing the
side windows of your vehicle.
Especially, with high-pressure
water, water may leak through
the windows and wet the inte-
rior.
To prevent damage to the
plastic parts, do not clean
with chemical solvents or
strong detergents.

Maintenance
Aluminum wheel maintenance
The aluminum wheels are coated
with a clear protective finish.
Corrosion protection
Protecting your vehicle from corro-
sion
By using the most advanced design
and construction practices to combat
corrosion, Genesis Branded Vehicle
produces cars of the highest quality.
However, this is only part of the job.
To achieve the long-term corrosion
resistance your vehicle can deliver,
the owner's cooperation and assis-
tance is also required.
Common causes of corrosion
The most common causes of corro-
sion on your vehicle are:
Road salt, dirt and moisture that is
allowed to accumulate underneath
the vehicle.
Removal of paint or protective
coatings by stones, gravel, abra-
sion or minor scrapes and dents
which leave unprotected metal
exposed to corrosion. After washing the vehicle, test
the brakes while driving slowly
to see if they have been affected
by water. If braking performance
is impaired, dry the brakes by
applying them lightly while
maintaining a slow forward
speed.
WARNING
Do not use abrasive cleaner,
polishing compound, solvent,
or wire brushes on aluminum
wheels.
Clean the wheel when it has
cooled.
Use only a mild soap or neu-
tral detergent, and rinse thor-
oughly with water. Also, clean
the wheels after driving on
salted roads.
Do not wash the wheels with
high-speed car wash brushes.
Do not use any cleaners con-
taining acid or alkaline deter-
gents.
