Driving your vehicle
The Lane Keeping Assist System
helps detect lane markers on the
road, and assists the driver's steer-
ing to help keep the vehicle between
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,
to try to prevent the vehicle from
moving out of its lane.

The lane keeping assist system
is not a substitute for safe driv-
ing practices, but a conven-
ience function only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always be aware of the sur-
rounding and steer the vehicle.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using the Lane Keeping
Assist System (LKAS):
The steering wheel is not con-
tinuously controlled so if the
vehicle speed is at a higher
speed when leaving a lane the
vehicle may not be able to be
controlled by the system.
Do not steer the steering wheel suddenly when the
steering wheel is being assist-
ed by the system.
LKAS helps prevent the driver from moving out of the lane
unintentionally by assisting
the driver's steering. However,
the driver should not solely
rely on the system but always
pay attention on the steering
wheel to stay in the lane.
Always check the road condi- tion and surroundings and be
cautious when the system
cancels, does not operate or
malfunctions.
The system detects lane lines and controls the steering
wheel by a camera, therefore,
if the lane lines are hard to
detect, the system may not
work properly.
Please refer to "Limitations of
the system".
Do not attempt to repair the LKAS camera and do not
remove any parts.
Do not place objects on the dashboard that reflect light
such as mirrors, white paper,
etc. The system may malfunc-
tion if the sunlight is reflected.

LKAS activation
The LKAS screen will appear onthe SCC/LKAS screen of the LCD
display if the system is activated.
When both lane lines are detected and all the conditions to activate
the LKAS are satisfied, a green
steering wheel indicator will illumi-
nate and the LKAS indicator light
will change from white to green.
This indicates that the LKAS sys-
tem is in the ENABLED state and
the steering wheel will be able to
be controlled. If the system detects a lane line,
the color changes from gray to
white.
If the system detects the left lane line, the left lane line color will
change from gray to white.
If the system detects the right lane line, the right lane line color will
change from gray to white.
Both lane lines must be detected for the system to fully activate.

Information
• Even though the steering is assistedby the system, the driver can still
steer to control the steering wheel.
• The steering wheel may feel heavier when the steering wheel is assisted
by the system than when it is not.
The LKAS system will not be in the
ENABLED state and the steering
wheel will not be assisted when:
Vehicle speed is below 40 mph (64 km/h) and over 110 mph (177
km/h).
Only one lane line is detected.
The turn signal is turned on before changing a lane. If you change
lanes without the turn signal on, the
steering wheel might be controlled.
The hazard warning flasher is on.
The width of the lane is below 10 feet (3.1 m) and over 15 feet
(4.5 m).
ESC (Electronic Stability Control) or VSM (Vehicle Stability Management)
is activated.
The vehicle is driven on a sharp curve.

There are more than two lane lines on the road. (e.g. construction area)
The vehicle is driven on a steep incline.
Information
When the system is turned on or right
after changing a lane, drive in the
middle of the lane. If not, the system
will not provide steering assist func-
tion.
Warning light and message
Check LKAS
If there is a problem with the system
a message will appear for a few sec-
onds. If the problem continues the
LKAS failure indicator will illuminate.
LKAS failure indicator
The LKAS failure indica-
tor (yellow) will illuminate
if the LKAS is not working
properly. Have your vehi-
cle checked by an authorized retailer

LKAS Function Change
OHI056118L
The driver can change LKAS to Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) or
change the LKAS mode between Standard LKA and Active LKA from the
User Settings mode on the LCD display. The system is automatically set to
Standard LKA if a function is not selected.
Lane Departure
LDWS alerts the driver with a visual warning and a warning alarm when the
system detects the vehicle departing the lane. The steering wheel will not be
controlled.
Standard LKA
The Standard LKA mode guides the driver to help keep the vehicle within the
lanes. It rarely controls the steering wheel, when the vehicle drives well inside
the lanes. However, it starts to control the steering wheel, when the vehicle is
about to deviate out of the lanes.
Active LKA
The Active LKA mode provides more frequent steering wheel control in com-
parison with the Standard LKA mode. The driver may not feel the onset of the
steering wheel control, because the Active LKA may be constantly controlling
the steering with lighter corrections.

System Malfunction
When the "Check System" warning
message appears, the system is not
working properly. In this case, have
the vehicle inspected by an author-
ized retailer of Genesis Branded prod-
ucts.The Driver Attention Alert 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:
NEVER install any accessories
or stickers on the front wind-
shield, nor tint the front wind-
shield.
NEVER locate any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may cause a malfunc-
tion of the Driver Attention Alert
(DAA) system.
Pay extreme caution to keep the camera sensor out of water.
NEVER arbitrarily disassemble the camera assembly, nor apply
any impact on the camera
assembly.
Playing the vehicle audio sys- tem at high volume may offset
the Driver Attention Alert sys-
tem warning sounds.
NOTICE
The Driver Attention Alertsystem is not a substitute 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.
The driver, who feels fatigued, should take a break, even
though there is no break sug-
gestion by the Driver Attention
Alert system.

Hazardous Driving Conditions
When hazardous driving elements
are encountered such as water,
snow, ice, mud and sand, take the
below suggestions:
Drive cautiously and keep a longerbraking distance.
Avoid abrupt braking or steering.
When your vehicle is stuck in snow, mud, or sand, use second gear.
Accelerate slowly to avoid unnec-
essary wheel spin.
Put sand, rock salt, tire chains or other non-slip materials under the
wheels to provide additional trac-
tion while the vehicle becomes
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 vehicle is stuck and
excessive wheel spin occurs,
the temperature in the tires can
increase very quickly. If the tires
become damaged, a tire blow
out or tire explosion can occur.
This condition is dangerous -
you and others may be injured.
Do not attempt this procedure if
people or objects are anywhere
near the vehicle.
If you attempt to free the vehi-
cle, the vehicle can overheat
quickly, possibly causing an
engine compartment fire or
other damage. Try to avoid spin-
ning the wheels as much as
possible to prevent overheating
of either the tires or the engine.
DO NOT allow the vehicle to
spin the wheels above 35 mph
(56 km/h).
WARNING
The hazard warning flasher serves
as a warning to other drivers to exer-
cise extreme caution when approach-
ing, overtaking, or passing your vehi-
cle.
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. The button is located
in the center fascia panel. Both the
left and right 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.
