SPORT mode
SPORT mode focuses on
dynamic driving by auto-
matically adjusting the
steering wheel, engine
and transmission system.
When the DRIVE MODE switch is
pressed and the SPORT mode is
selected, the SPORT indicator
(yellow) will illuminate.
When the SPORT mode is activat-
ed, and the engine is turned off
and on it will change to NORMAL
mode. To turn on the SPORT
mode, press the DRIVE MODE
switch again.
If the system is activated:
- After accelerating and releasing
the accelerator pedal, the gear
and engine speed RPM may not
drop as soon as in NORMAL
mode.
- Up-shifting is delayed.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
In SPORT mode, the fuel efficiency
may decrease.
SNOW mode (if equipped)
SNOW mode helps the
driver to drive more effec-
tively on slippery roads
such as snowy or muddy
roads.
When the DRIVE MODE switch is
pressed for more than one second,
the SNOW mode will operate
regardless of whichever drive
mode (NORMAL/ECO/SPORT) is
operating. If the switch is pressed
once more, the drive mode (NOR-
MAL/ECO/SPORT) that was oper-
ating previously will operate.

Prerequisite for activation
The FCA gets ready to be activated,
when the FCA is selected on the
LCD display, and when the following
prerequisites are satisfied.
- The ESC (Electronic Stability
Control ) is on.
- To enable the system to detect
pedestrians ahead, the vehicle
driving speed must be between 5
mph – 45 mph (8 km/h – 70 km/h).
- To enable the system to detect a
vehicle ahead, the vehicle driving
speed must be between 5 mph –
110 mph (8 km/h – 180 km/h).
When traveling above 50 mph (80
km/h), the FCA system only initiates
partial braking. This is to prevent
unintended full braking to stop in the
middle of the highway.
FCA warning message and
system control
The FCA produces warning mes-
sages and warning alarms in accor-
dance with the collision risk levels,
such as abrupt stopping of the vehi-
cle in front, insufficient braking dis-
tance, or pedestrian detection. Also,
it controls the brakes in accordance
with the collision risk levels.Completely stop the vehicle
on a safe location before
operating the switch on the
steering wheel to activate/
deactivate the FCA system.
The FCA automatically acti-
vates upon placing the Engine
Start/Stop button to the ON
position. The driver can deac-
tivate the FCA by canceling
the system setting on the LCD
display.
The FCA automatically deacti-
vates upon canceling the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control).
When the ESC is canceled,
the FCA cannot be activated
on the LCD display.

Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the braking
system enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction against the dri-
ver’s depressing the brake pedal.
The FCA provides additional brak-
ing power for optimum braking per-
formance, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical-
ly deactivated, when the driver
sharply depresses the accelerator,
or when the driver abruptly oper-
ates the steering wheel.
The FCA brake control is automat-
ically canceled, when risk factors
disappear.The driver should always use
extreme caution while operating
the vehicle, whether or not there
is a warning message or alarm
from the FCA system.CAUTION
The FCA braking control cannot
completely stop the vehicle nor
avoid all collisions. The driver
should hold the responsibility
to safely drive and control the
vehicle.
WARNING
The FCA system logic operates
within certain parameters, such
as the distance from the vehicle
or pedestrian ahead, the speed
of the vehicle ahead, and the
driver's vehicle speed. Certain
conditions such as inclement
weather and road conditions
may affect the operation of the
FCA system.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.

A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing
upwards due to overloading in the
trunk
- While the steering wheel is operat-
ing
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on
curves
Apply the brake or accelerator pedal
if necessary.Your vehicle may accelerate when a
vehicle ahead of you disappears.
When you are warned that the vehi-
cle ahead of you is not detected,
drive with caution.When vehicles are at a standstill and
the vehicle in front of you changes to
the next lane, be careful when your
vehicle starts to move because it
may not recognize the stopped vehi-
cle in front of you.
In this case, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if neces-
sary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) sys-
tem detects the lane markers on the
road with a camera at the front wind-
shield, and assists the driver's steer-
ing to help keep the vehicle in the
lanes.
When the system detects the vehicle
straying from its lane, it alerts the
driver with a visual and steering
wheel vibration warning, while apply-
ing a slight counter-steering torque,
trying to prevent the vehicle from
moving out of its lane.

Do not disassemble LKA cam-
era temporarily for tinted win-
dow 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
products and have the system
checked to need a calibration.
When you replace the wind-
shield glass, LKA camera or
related parts of the steering,
take your vehicle to an author-
ized retailer of Genesis
Branded products and have
the system checked to need a
calibration.
The system detects lane
markers and controls the
steering wheel by a camera,
therefore, if the lane markers
are hard to detect, the system
may not work properly.
Always be cautious when
using the system.

WARNING
Driver is responsible for being
aware of surroundings and
steering the vehicle for safe
driving practices.
Do not steer the steering
wheel suddenly when the
steering wheel is being assist-
ed by the system.
LKA helps prevent the driver
from moving out of the lane
unintentionally by assisting
the driver's steering. However,
the system is just a conven-
ience function and the steer-
ing wheel is not always con-
trolled. While driving, the driv-
er should pay attention to the
steering wheel.
The operation of the LKA can
be cancelled or not work
properly according to road
condition and surroundings.
Always be cautious when
driving.

LKA operation
To activate/deactivate the LKA:
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, press the LKA button locat-
ed on the instrument panel on the
lower left side of the steering wheel.
The indicator in the cluster display
will initially illuminate white.
When the indicator(white) activated
in the previous ignition cycle, the
system turns on without any control. (Continued)
When the lane markers are
hard to detect, please refer to
"Limitation of the System".
Do not remove or damage the
related parts of LKA.
Do not place objects on the
crash pad that reflects light
such as mirrors, white paper,
etc. it may cause malfunction
of LKA if the sunlight is
reflected.
If you continue to drive with
your hands off the steering
wheel, the LKA will stop con-
trolling the steering wheel
after the hands off alarm.
After then, if you drive with
your hands on the steering
wheel, the control will be acti-
vated again.
If the vehicle speed is high,
steering torque for assistance
will not be enough to keep
your vehicle within the lane. If
so, the vehicle may move out
of its lane.
