The Smart Cruise Control system
may not operate temporarily due
to:
Electrical interference
A modified suspension
Differences of tire abrasion or
tire pressure
Installing different type of tires
NOTICE
The Smart Cruise Control sys- tem may not recognize com-
plex driving situations so
always pay attention to driving
conditions and control your
vehicle speed.
The Smart Cruise Control sys- tem may recognize a pedestri-
an, bicycle, motorcycle, etc. as
a vehicle. Always, look ahead
cautiously to prevent unex-
pected and sudden situations
from occurring.
Turn off the Smart Cruise Control system when the
vehicle is being towed.
The Smart Cruise Control sys- tem may operate limitedly
when towing a trailer or vehi-
cle so always drive cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.
When using the Smart Cruise
Control take the following pre-
cautions:
If an emergency stop is nec-essary, you must apply the
brakes. The smart cruise con-
trol system cannot guarantee
the stop for every emergency
situation.
Keep a safe distance according to road conditions and vehicle
speed. If the vehicle to vehicle
distance is too close during a
high-speed driving, a serious
collision may result.
Always maintain sufficient braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying the
brakes if necessary.
The Smart Cruise Control sys- tem cannot recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians or
an oncoming vehicle. Always
look ahead cautiously to pre-
vent unexpected and sudden
situations from occurring.
Vehicles moving in front of you with a frequent lane change
may cause a delay in the sys-
tem's reaction or may cause the
system to react to a vehicle
actually in an adjacent lane.
Always drive cautiously to pre-
vent unexpected and sudden
situations from occurring.
Always be aware of the select- ed speed and vehicle to vehicle
distance. The driver should not
solely rely on the system but
always pay attention to driving
conditions and control your
vehicle speed.

Information
The system may suggest a break
according to the driver's driving pat-
tern or habits even if the driver doesn't
feel fatigue.
The Driver Attention Warning
(DAW) 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 windshield,
or tint the front windshield.
NEVER place any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may prevent the sys-
tem from functioning properly.
Pay extreme caution to keep the camera sensor dry.
Never disassemble the camera assembly, or apply any impact
on the camera assembly.
If the sensor is forcibly moved
out of proper alignment, the sys-
tem may not operate correctly.
Take your vehicle to an author-
ized retailer of Genesis Branded
products and have the system
checked for calibration.
NOTICE
i
The Driver Attention Warning
(DAW) system may not provide
alerts in the following situations:
The lane detection perform-ance is limited. For more
information, refer to "Lane
Keeping Assist (LKA) system"
in this chapter.
CAUTION
The vehicle is erratically driv-en or is abruptly turned for
obstacle avoidance (e.g. con-
struction area, other vehicles,
fallen objects, bumpy road).
Forward drivability of the vehicle is severely under-
mined (possibly due to wide
variation in tire pressures,
uneven tire wear-out, toe-
in/toe-out alignment).
The vehicle drives on a curvy road.
The vehicle drives through a windy area.
The vehicle drives on a bumpy road.
The vehicle is controlled by the following driving assist
systems:
- Forward Collision-avoidanceAssist (FCA)
- Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW)/Blind-Spot Collision
Assist (BCA)
- Smart Cruise Control (SCC)
- Lane Following Assist (LFA)
- Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may prevent
occupants from hearing the
Driver Attention Warning (DAW)
system warning sounds.
CAUTION

Driving your vehicle
Driving in Flooded Areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no
higher than the bottom of the wheel
hub. Drive through any water slowly.
Allow adequate stopping distance
because brake performance may be
reduced.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them sev-
eral times while the vehicle is moving
slowly.
Highway Driving
Tires
Adjust the tire inflation, as specified.
Under-inflation may overheat or
damage the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged
tires, which may reduce traction or
fail the braking operation.
Information
Never over-inflate your tires above the
maximum inflation pressure, as speci-
fied on your tires.
Fuel, engine coolant and engineoil
Driving at higher speeds on the high-
way consumes more fuel and is less
efficient than driving at a slower,
more moderate speed. Maintain a
moderate speed in order to conserve
fuel when driving on the highway.
Be sure to check both the engine
coolant level and the engine oil
before driving.
Drive belt
A loose or damaged drive belt may
overheat the engine.
i
Utility vehicles have a signifi-
cantly higher rollover rate than
other types of vehicles. To pre-
vent rollovers or loss of control:
Take corners at slower speeds
than you would with a passen-
ger vehicle.
Avoid sharp turns and abrupt maneuvers.
Do not modify your vehicle in any way that you would raise
the center of gravity.
Keep tires properly inflated.
Do not carry heavy cargo on the roof.
WARNING
In a rollover crash, an unbelted
person is significantly more
likely to die than a person wear-
ing a seat belt. Make sure all
passengers are wearing their
seat belts.

The severe weather conditions of winter quickly wear out tires and cause
other problems. To minimize winter driving problems, you should take the fol-
lowing suggestions:
Snow or Icy Conditions
You need to keep sufficient distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding, rapid acceleration, sudden brake applica-
tions, and sharp turns are potentially very hazardous practices. During decel-
eration, use engine braking to the fullest extent. Sudden brake applications on
snowy or icy roads may cause the vehicle to skid.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to use snow tires or
to install tire chains on your tires.
Always carry emergency equipment. Some of the items you may want to carry
include tire chains, tow straps or chains, a flashlight, emergency flares, sand,
a shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a
blanket, etc.
Snow tires
We recommend you use snow tires when road temperature is below 45°F
(7°C). Refer to the below chart, and mount the recommended snow tire for
your vehicle.
If you mount snow tires on your vehicle, make sure to use the same inflation
pressure as the original tires. However, if you mount 245/45R19 size tire on
the rear, the tire inflation pressure should maintain 35psi. Mount snow tires on
all four wheels to balance your vehicle's handling in all weather conditions.
The traction provided by snow tires on dry road may not be as high as your
vehicle's original equipment tires. Check with the tire dealer for maximum
speed recommendations.
Information
Do not install studded tires without first checking local, state and municipal reg-
ulations for possible restrictions against their use.
