function with the ISG system per-
sists, contact an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products.
• You can turn off the ISG OFF but- ton indicator by driving over 50
mph (80 km/h) for up to 2 hours
with the fan speed below the 2nd
position. If the ISG OFF button
indicator remains ON, contact an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.

ECO mode
When the drive mode isset to ECO mode, the
engine and transmission
control logic are changed
to maximize fuel efficien-
cy.
When ECO mode is selected by pressing the DRIVE MODE selec-
tion button, the ECO indicator will
illuminate.
If the vehicle is set to ECO mode, when the engine is turned off and
restarted the drive mode setting
will remain in ECO mode.
Information
Fuel efficiency depends on the driver's
driving habit and road condition.
When ECO mode is activated:
The acceleration response may beslightly reduced if the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
The air conditioner performance may be limited.
The shift pattern of the automatic transmission may change.
The engine noise may be louder at some automatic transmission
shifts as down-shift requires press-
ing down more on the accelerator.
The above situations are normal
conditions when ECO mode is acti-
vated to help improve fuel efficiency.
Limitation of ECO mode operation:
If the following conditions occur while
ECO mode is operating, the system
operation is limited even though
there is no change in the ECO indi-
cator.
When the coolant temperature is low:
The system will be limited until
engine performance becomes nor-
mal.
When driving up a hill: The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because
engine torque is restricted.
When driving the vehicle with the automatic transmission gear shift
lever in manual mode.
The system will be limited accord-
ing to the shift location.

COMFORT mode
COMFORT mode is a
normal drive mode that
provides smooth driving
and comfortable riding.
When COMFORT mode is select- ed by rotating the DRIVE MODE
selection knob, the COMFORT
indicator will illuminate.
SPORT
SPORT mode manages
the driving dynamics by
automatically adjusting
the steering effort, and
the engine and transmission control
logic for enhanced driver perform-
ance.
When SPORT mode is selected by rotating the DRIVE MODE selec-
tion knob, the SPORT indicator will
illuminate.
Whenever the engine is restarted, the drive mode will revert back to
COMFORT mode. If SPORT mode
is desired, re-select SPORT mode.
When SPORT mode is activated: - The engine rpm will tend toremain a little higher for a brief
time even after releasing the
accelerator. This is typical when
the SPORT mode is activated.
- Upshifts are delayed when accel- erating
Information
In SPORT mode, the fuel efficiency
may decrease.

then ON again, the BCW system
returns to the previous state.
• When the system is turned on, the warning light will illuminate for 3
seconds on the outer side view mir-
ror.
The function will activate when:
1. The system is on.
2. The vehicle speed is above approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).
3. An oncoming vehicle is detected in the blind spot area.
i
Always be aware of road con-
ditions while driving and be
alert for unexpected situations
even though the Blind-Spot
Collision Warning system is
operating.
The Blind-Spot Collision
Warning (BCW) system is not
a substitute for proper and
safe driving. Always drive
safely and use caution when
changing lanes or backing up
the vehicle. The Blind-Spot
Collision Warning system may
not detect every object along-
side the vehicle.

The warning light on the outer
side view mirror will illumi-
nate whenever a vehicle is
detected at the rear side by
the system.
To avoid accidents, do not
focus only on the warning
light and neglect to see the
surrounding of the vehicle.
Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with a
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system and Rear Cross-
Traffic Collision Warning
(RCCW). Do not solely rely on
the system but check your sur-
rounding before changing
lanes or backing the vehicle up.
The system may not alert the
driver in some conditions so
always check your surround-
ings while driving.

- A trailer or carrier is installed. Touse the BCW system, remove the
trailer or carrier from your vehicle.
If any of these conditions occur, the
light on the BCW switch and the sys-
tem will turn off automatically.
When the BCW cancelled warning
message is displayed in the cluster,
check to make sure that the rear
bumper is free from any dirt or snow
in the areas where the sensor is
located. Remove any dirt, snow, or
foreign material that could interfere
with the radar sensors.
After any dirt or debris is removed,
the BCW system should operate nor-
mally after about 10 minutes of driv-
ing the vehicle.
If the system still does not operate
normally have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.Information
Turn off the system by pressing the
BCW switch and deselecting Rear
Cross Traffic Warning from the User
Settings mode on the cluster, when
using a trailer or carrier behind your
vehicle.
Check Blind-Spot Collision
Warning (BCW) system
If there is a problem with the BCW
system, a warning message will
appear and the light on the switch
will turn off. The system will turn off
automatically. Have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.

The warning light illumi-
nates on the cluster,
when you cancel the FCA
system. The driver can
monitor the FCA ON/OFF status on
the LCD display. Also, the warning
light illuminates when the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) is
turned off.
If the warning light remains ON when
the FCA is activated, have the sys-
tem checked by an authorized retail-
er of Genesis Branded products.
The driver can select the initial warn- ing activation time on the LCD dis-
play. Go to the 'User Settings →
Driver
assistance →Forward Collision
Warning →Early/Normal/Late'.
The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the fol-
lowing:
- Early :
When this condition is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning is
activated earlier than normal. This
setting maximizes the amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle ahead
before the initial warning occurs. Even though, 'Early' is selected if the
front vehicle suddenly stops the ini-
tial warning activation time may not
seem fast.
- Normal :
When this condition is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning is
activated normally. This setting
allows for a nominal amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle, pedestri-
an or cyclist ahead before the initial
warning occurs.
- Late :
When this condition is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning is
activated later than normal. This set-
ting reduces the amount of distance
between the vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist ahead before the initial warn-
ing occurs.
Select 'Late' when traffic is light and
when driving speed is slow.
