The Head-Up Display is an optional
feature that allows the driver to view
information projected onto a trans-
parent screen while still keeping your
eyes safely on the road ahead while
driving.
Precautions while using the Head-Up Display
It may sometimes be difficult to read
information on the Head-Up Display
in the following situations.
- The driver is improperly positioned
in the driver's seat.
- The diver wears polarizing-filter sunglasses.
- An object is located above the head-up display cover.
- The vehicle is driven on a wet road.
- Any improper lighting accessory is installed inside the vehicle, or there
is incoming light from outside of the
vehicle.
- The driver wears glasses.
- The driver wears contact lenses.
When it is difficult to read the head-
up display information, adjust the
head-up display angle or the head-
up display brightness level. Have your head-up display main-
tained by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products. The
head-up display maintenance
requires a special windshield exclu-
sive for the head-up display.
• Do not tint the front windshield
glass or add other types of
metallic coating. Otherwise, the
head-up display image may be
invisible.
Do not place any accessories on the crash pad or attach any
objects on the windshield glass.
Information
When replacing the front windshield
glass of the vehicles equipped with the
head-up display, replace it with a
windshield glass designed for the
head-up display operation.
Otherwise, duplicated images may be
displayed on the windshield glass.

AFS (Adaptive Front-LightingSystem) (if equipped)
Adaptive front lighting system uses
vehicle speed and angle, to keep
your field of vision wide by leveling
the headlamp.
Change the switch to the AUTO posi-
tion when the engine is running. The
adaptive front lighting system will
operate when the headlamp is ON.
The system raises the low beam
angle when the vehicle speed is
above 72 mph (115 km/h), to secure
safety during high speed driving.
To turn off AFS, change the switch to
other positions. The headlamp level-
ing by the headlamp leveling device
still operates even after the AFS has
turned off. If the AFS malfunction indicator
comes on, the AFS is not working
properly.
Drive to the nearest safe location
and restart the engine. If the indica-
tor continuously remains on, we rec-
ommend that the system be checked
by an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
Daytime running light (DRL)
The Daytime Running Lights (DRL)
can help others to see the front of
your vehicle during the day, especial-
ly after dawn and before sunset.
The DRL system will turn OFF when:
The light switch is in the parking or
headlamp lamp position, including
the operation that the parking lamp
or headlamp is turned on automat-
ically in the AUTO light position.
The engine is turned off.
The hazard warning flasher is on.

Convenient features of your vehicle
When using the air conditioning
system, monitor the engine tem-
perature gauge closely while driv-
ing up hills or in heavy traffic when
outside temperatures are high. Air
conditioning system operation
when climbing a steep grade or in
high outside ambient temperatures
can cause engine overheating.
Continue to use the fan, but turn
the air conditioning system off if
the engine temperature gauge
indicates engine overheating.
Air conditioning system operation
tips
If the vehicle has been parked in direct sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
After sufficient cooling has been achieved, switch back from recir-
culation mode to fresh mode.
To help reduce moisture inside of the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system with the win-
dows and sunroof closed.
Use the air conditioning system every month only for a few minutes
to ensure maximum system per-
formance.
If you operate air conditioner excessively, the difference between
the temperature of the outside air
and that of the windshield could
cause the outer surface of the
windshield to fog up, causing loss
of visibility. In this case, set the
mode selection knob or button to
the position and fan speed
control to the lowest speed.
System Maintenance
Cabin air filter
[A] : Outside air, [B] : Recirculated air
[C] : Climate control air filter, [D] : Blower
[E] : Evaporator core, [F] : Heater core
The cabin air filter is installed behind
the glove box. It filters the dust or
other pollutants that enter the vehicle
through the heating and air condi-
tioning system.
Have the cabin air filter replaced by
an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products according to the
maintenance schedule. If the vehicle
is being driven in severe conditions
such as dusty or rough roads and/or
if transporting pets or occupants
smoke inside the vehicle, then more
frequent cabin air filter inspections
and changes are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreas-
es, the system should be checked at
an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.

Carbon monoxide (CO) gas is toxic. Breathing CO can cause uncon-
sciousness and death.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide which cannot be seen or
smelled.
Do not inhale engine exhaust.
If at any time you smell engine exhaust inside the vehicle, open the win-
dows immediately. Exposure to CO can cause unconsciousness and death
by asphyxiation.
Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.
The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to
change the oil or for any other purpose. If you hear a change in the sound
of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath
side of the vehicle, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible
by an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded products.
Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.
Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is
a hazardous practice. Run the engine only long enough to start the engine
and to move the vehicle out of the garage.
Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the
vehicle.
If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside
the vehicle, be sure to do so only in an open area with the air intake set at
"Fresh" and fan control set to high so fresh air is drawn into the interior.
Keep the air intakes clear.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, keep the ventilation
air intakes located in front of the windshield clear of snow, ice, leaves, or
other obstructions.
If you must drive with the trunk open:
Close all windows.
Open instrument panel air vents.
Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face",
and the fan control set to high.
