2021 GENESIS G80 brake sensor

Safety System
3-66
ORG3030047
Just before impact, drivers often brake
heavily. Such heavy braking lowers the
front portion of the vehicle causing it
to “ride” under a vehicle with a higher
ground clearance. Air bags may not
inflate in this “underride” situation
because deceleration forces that are
detected by sensors may be significantly
reduced by such “underride” collisions.
ORG3030048
Front air bags may not inflate in
rollover accidents because front air bag
deployment would not provide additional
occupant protection.
Information
With rollover sensor
The side and curtain air bags and front
center air bag may inflate in a rollover
situation, when it is detected by the
rollover sensor.
ORG3030049
Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle
collides with objects such as utility poles
or trees, where the point of impact is
concentrated and the collision energy is
absorbed by the vehicle structure.

the end of the control lever to one of the
following positions:
OJX1059057
1. OFF position
2. AUTO headlamp position
3. Parking lamp position
4. Headlamp positionDaytime Running Light (DRL)
The Daytime Running Lights (DRL) can
make it easier for others to see the front
of your vehicle during the day, especially
after dawn and before sunset.
The DRL system will turn the dedicated
lamp OFF when :
• The headlamps are ON.
• The parking brake is applied.
• The vehicle is turned off.
OJX1059059
AUTO headlamp position
The parking lamp and headlamp will
be turned ON or OFF automatically
depending on the amount of daylight as
measured by the ambient light sensor (1)
at the upper end of the windshield glass.
Even with the AUTO headlamp feature
in operation, it is recommended to
manually turn ON the headlamps when
driving at night or in a fog, driving in the
rain, or when you enter dark areas, such
as tunnels and parking facilities.
LIGHTING

Idle Stop and Go helps reduce fuel
consumption by automatically shutting
down the engine, when the vehicle is
at a standstill (i.e. red stop light, stop
sign, and traffic jam) subject to certain
prerequisite conditions being satisfied as
listed below.
The engine is automatically started upon
satisfying the starting conditions.
ISG system is always active, when the
engine is running.
Information
When the engine is automatically started
by ISG system, warning lights (i.e. ABS,
ESC, ESC OFF, EPS, and parking brake
warning light) may illuminate for a few
seconds due to low battery voltage.
However, it does not indicate a
malfunction with ISG system.
ISG System Operation
Prerequisite for activation
ISG system operates in the following
situations.
• The driver's seatbelt is fastened
• The driver's door and hood are closed
• The battery sensor is activated and
the battery is sufficiently charged
• Outside temperature is not too low or
too high
• The vehicle is driven over a constant
speed and stops
• The climate control system satisfies
the conditions
• The vehicle is sufficiently warmed up
• ISG related parts are working properly
• The incline is gradual
• The steering wheel is turned less than
180 degrees and then the vehicle
stops
Information
ISG system is not activated, when the
prerequisites to activate the ISG system
are unsatisfied. If this occurs, the ISG
OFF button indicator illuminates, and the
Auto Stop (
) indicator illuminates in
yellow on the instrument cluster.
When the Auto Stop (
) indicator stays
on the instrument cluster, have the system
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
Auto stop
When ISG is on the engine will be
stopped automatically when both of the
following occurs:
1. Vehicle speed decreases to 0mph (0
km/h) full stop condition.
2. Brake pedal is depressed and gear is
in D (Drive) or N (Neutral).
The Auto Stop (
) indicator illuminates
in green on the instrument cluster, when
the engine stops.
Information
Idle stop cannot reoccur again until the
vehicle speed goes above 3 mph (5 km/h)
and then returns again to the automatic
stop conditions as previously mentioned.
IDLE STOP AND GO (ISG)

6-47
When certain conditions are met, the
engine is automatically decoupled from
the transmission while gear remains in D
(Drive). When Coasting is operating, the
engine stays at idling speed to reduce
fuel consumption and increase coasting
distance.
Coasting Setting
OJX1069045L
• The Coasting function must be turned
ON from the Settings menu in the
infotainment system screen. Select:
-Setup → Vehicle Settings → Drive
Mode → Coasting
For detailed information, refer to the
separately supplied manual.
• When Coasting is turned ON and
the conditions are met, the function
operates with a ‘Coasting’ message
illuminated on the instrument cluster.
Coasting Operating Conditions
The Coasting function will operate when
the accelerator pedal is depressed and
released under the following conditions.
• ECO is selected for driving mode
• ECO or Smart is selected for
Powertrain in the CUSTOM menu from
the infotainment system screen. If

should be mild
• The gear is in D (Drive)
• The Smart Cruise Control button is
OFF
• The accelerator or brake pedal is not
depressed
• The vehicle’s speed is within 30~100
mph (50~160 km/h) range
• The road gradient is within -5~+5%
range
Information
• If the front radar for smart cruise
control system cannot operate
normally, the inter-vehicle distance
and relative speed condition are
automatically ignored.
• The Coasting function works after the
engine is turned on, the transmission is
warmed up, and the engine sensor self-
diagnosis is completed.
• Depending on the driving situation,
Coasting operation may be temporarily
delayed even if the above conditions are
