Do not use strong soap, chemi-
cal detergents or hot water, and
do not wash the vehicle in direct
sunlight or when the body of the
vehicle is warm.
Be careful when washing the side windows of your vehicle.
Especially, with high-pressure
water, water may leak through
the windows and wet the interior.
To prevent damage to the plastic parts, do not clean with chemi-
cal solvents or strong deter-
gents.
Water washing in the engine compartment including high
pressure water washing may
cause the failure of electrical cir-
cuits located in the engine com-
partment.
Never allow water or other liq- uids to come in contact with
electrical/electronic compo-
nents inside the vehicle as this
may damage them. Matte paint finish vehicle
(if equipped)
Automatic car wash which uses
rotating brushes should not be
used as this can damage the sur-
face of your vehicle. A steam
cleaner which washes the vehicle
surface at high temperature may
result the oil to adhere and leave
stains that is difficult to remove.
Use a soft cloth (e.g. microfiber
towel or sponge) when washing
your vehicle and dry with a
microfiber towel. When you hand
wash your vehicle, you should not
use a cleaner that finishes with
wax. If the vehicle surface is too
dirty (sand, dirt, dust, contami-
nant, etc.), clean the surface with
water before washing the car.
Waxing
A good coat of wax provides a barri-
er between your paint and environ-
mental contamination.
Keeping a good coat of wax on your
vehicle will help protect it.
Wax the vehicle when water will no
longer bead on the paint.
Always wash and dry the vehicle
before waxing. Use a good quality
liquid or paste wax, and follow the
manufacturer’s instructions. Wax all
metal trim to protect it and to main-
tain its luster.
Removing oil, tar, and similar materi-
als with a spot remover will usually
strip the wax from the finish. Be sure
to re-wax these areas even if the rest
of the vehicle does not yet need wax-
ing.

Maintenance
Interior Care
Interior general precautions
Prevent caustic solutions such as
perfume and cosmetic oil, from con-
tacting the interior parts because
they may cause damage or discol-
oration. If they do contact the interior
parts, wipe them off immediately.
See the instructions for the proper
way to clean vinyl.
Never allow water or other liq-uids to come in contact with
electrical/electronic compo-
nents inside the vehicle as this
may damage them.
When cleaning leather products (steering wheel, seats etc.), use
neutral detergents or low alco-
hol content solutions. If you use
high alcohol content solutions
or acid/ alkaline detergents, the
color of the leather may fade or
the surface may get stripped off.
Cleaning the upholstery andinterior trim
Vinyl (if equipped)
Remove dust and loose dirt from
vinyl with a whisk broom or vacuum
cleaner. Clean vinyl surfaces with a
vinyl cleaner.
Fabric (if equipped)
Remove dust and loose dirt from fab-
ric with a whisk broom or vacuum
cleaner. Clean with a mild soap solu-
tion recommended for upholstery or
carpets. Remove fresh spots imme-
diately with a fabric spot cleaner. If
fresh spots do not receive immediate
attention, the fabric can be stained
and its color can be affected.
Also, its fire-resistant properties can
be reduced if the material is not
properly maintained.
Using anything but recommended
cleaners and procedures may
affect the fabric's appearance and
fire-resistant properties.

Maintenance
Cleaning the leather seats - Remove all contaminationsinstantly. Refer to instructions
below for removal of each con-
taminant.
- Cosmetic products (sunscreen, foundation, etc.)
Apply cleansing cream on a cloth
and wipe the contaminated spot.
Wipe off the cream with a wet
cloth and remove water with a dry
cloth.
- Beverages (coffee, soft drink, etc.)
Apply a small amount of neutral
detergent and wipe until contami-
nations do not smear.
- Oil Remove oil instantly with
absorbable cloth and wipe with
stain remover used only for natu-
ral leather.
- Chewing gum Harden the gum with ice and
remove gradually.
Handling prime napa leather (if equipped)
Try to avoid excessive sunlight and
heat exposure. Excessive sunlight
and heat exposure naturally fades
and dries out napa leather, causing
wrinkles and discoloration. If the
napa leather is wet with liquid, imme-
diately clean it with lint-free cloth to
minimize damage. Do not scratch the
napa leather surface with a sharp
object. If your napa leather seat is
bright colored, it may be contaminat-
ed or stained from dyed materials
such as jeans.
Interior wooden trim
(e.g. wax, coating compound) to
clean the interior wooden trim.
Often wipe the interior wooden trim with a lint-free, clean cloth to main-
tain the unique wooden textures for
a longer period of time.
If you spill beverage (e.g. water, coffee) over the interior wooden
trim, immediately wipe it with
clean, dry cloth.
Sharp objects (e.g. driver, knife), adhesive materials, or tapes
may damage the interior wooden
trim.
Any strong impacts may dam- age the interior wooden trim.
If the coating finish over the interior wooden trim is removed,
moisture may damage or
change wood traits.
If the interior wooden trim is damaged, you may get a splinter
from the wood surface.
Therefore, you should immedi-
ately have the damaged interior
wooden trim replaced by an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.

Cleaning the seat belt webbing
Clean the belt webbing with any mild
soap solution recommended for
cleaning upholstery or carpet. Follow
the instructions provided with the
soap. Do not bleach or re-dye the
webbing because this may weaken
the seat belt.
Cleaning the interior window
glass
If the interior glass surfaces of the
vehicle become fogged (that is, cov-
ered with an oily, greasy or waxy
film), they should be cleaned with
glass cleaner. Follow the directions
on the glass cleaner container.
Do not scrape or scratch the
inside of the rear window. This
may result in damage to the rear
window defroster grid.
NOTICE
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use
only lubricants of the proper quality. The correct lubricants also help promote
engine efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.

*2: Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel economy by reducing the amount of fuel
necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to
measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and
energy savings.

Recommended SAE Viscosity Number
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or
dipstick before checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially
important in dusty or sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on
unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick areas will prevent dirt
and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that could be
damaged.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weath-
er operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine
oils can provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, howev-
er, higher viscosity engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot
weather. Using oils of any viscosity other than those recommended could
result in engine damage. When choosing an oil, consider the range of temper-
ature your vehicle will be operated in before the next oil change. Proceed to
select the recommended oil viscosity from the chart.
NOTICE
*1: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil
of a viscosity grade SAE 5W-20 (API SM / ILSAC GF-4
(or above)). However, if the engine oil is not available in your
country, select the proper engine oil using the engine oil viscos-
ity chart.
