Electric Power Steering (EPS)
warning light
This warning light illuminates:

[When y
ou set the Engine Start/Stop
button to the ON position.
- The electric powering steering warning light illuminates for about 3
seconds and then goes off.

[ Whenever there is a malfunction with
the electric power steering.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
Charging system warning
light
This warning light illuminates:
When there is a malfunction with either
the alt

ernator or electrical charging
system.
If there is a malfunction with either the
alternator
or electrical charging system:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe loca
tion and stop your vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and check the alternator drive belt for looseness or
breakage.
If the belt is adjusted properly, there
may be a problem in the electrical
charging system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products as soon as
possible.
Engine oil pressure warning
light
If the engine oil pressure is low:

[Driv
e carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.

[ Turn the engine off and check the
engine oil level (For more details,
refer to “Engine Oil” section in
chapter 9). If the level is low, add oil as
required.
If the warning light remains on after
adding oil or if oil is not available, have
the vehicle inspected by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products.
(Continued driving with the warning
light on may cause engine failure.)
NOTICE
If the engine is not stopped
immediately after the Engine Oil
Pressure warning light is illuminated
while the engine is running, severe
damage could result.

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 several
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 specified
on your tires.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil
Driving at higher speeds on the highway
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.

Winter Precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycol coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high
quality ethylene glycol coolant in the
cooling system. It is the only type of
coolant that should be used because it
helps prevent corrosion in the cooling
system, lubricates the water pump and
prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or
replenish your coolant in accordance
with the maintenance schedule in
chapter 9. Before winter, have your
coolant tested to assure that its freezing
point is sufficient for the temperatures
anticipated during the winter.
Check battery and cables
Winter temperatures affect battery
performance. Inspect the battery and
cables, as specified in chapter 9. The
battery charging level can be checked by
an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products or in a service station.
Change to “winter weight” oil if
necessary
In some regions during winter, it is
recommended to use the “winter
weight” oil with lower viscosity. In
addition, replace the engine oil and filter
if it is close to the next maintenance
interval. Fresh engine oil ensures
optimum engine operation during the
winter months. For further information,
refer to chapter 2. When you are not sure
about a type of winter weight oil, consult
an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products.Check spark plugs and ignition system
Inspect the spark plugs, as specified in
chapter 9. If necessary, replace them.
Also check all ignition wirings and
components for any cracks, wear-out,
and damage.
To prevent locks from freezing
To prevent the locks from being frozen,
spray approved de-icing fluid or glycerin
into key holes. When a lock opening is
already covered with ice, spray approved
de-icing fluid over the ice to remove it.
When an internal part of a lock freezes,
try to thaw it with a heated key. Carefully
use the heated key to avoid an injury.
Use approved window washer anti-
freeze solution in system
To prevent the window washer from
being frozen, add authorized window
washer anti-freeze solution, as specified
on the window washer container.
Window washer anti-freeze solution is
available from an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products, and most
vehicle accessory outlets. Do not use
engine coolant or other types of anti-
freeze solution, to prevent any damage
to the vehicle paint.

Information

[ As it is normal for engine oil to be consumed during driving, the engine oil level should
be checked on regular basis.

[ The engine oil change interval for normal operating conditions is based on the use of
the recommended engine specification. If the recommended engine oil specification
is not used, then replace the engine oil according to the maintenance schedule under
severe operating conditions.

[ For 2.0 T-GDI engine : The vehicle may be e uipped with the Oil ife Management
System that predicts engine oil life based on the driver s driving history and alerts the
driver to change engine oil.
- If the deterioration of the engine oil increases depending on the driver s driving
severity, the remaining oil life alert appears on the instrument cluster before the
normal engine oil replacement interval. ave the engine oil and filter changed by an
authori ed distributor of Genesis Branded product.
- Oil ife Management System works when the recommended engine oil is used.
So, if recommended engine oil is not used, replace the engine oil according to the
maintenance schedule under severe usage condition.
Also, check the amount of engine oil regularly as this system assumes that the engine
oil is being filled normally.
- Always reset the remaining engine oil life whenever the engine oil is changed.
Otherwise, The indication of remaining Oil life in the Oil ife Management System
may not be accurate.
To reset the Oil Change Reminder, select RESET from the infotainment system
screen. Then, select Yes when the message Changed engine oil Press Yes to reset
the oil life. appears on the screen.
- If there is no alert until the maximum maintenance interval, have the vehicle
checked by an authori ed distributor of Genesis Branded product.

ENGINE OIL
Checking the Engine Oil LevelNOTICE
Engine oil is used for lubricating,
cooling, and operating various
hydraulic components in the engine.
Engine oil consumption while driving
is normal, and it is necessary to check
and refill the engine oil regularly. Also,
check and refill the oil level within
the recommended maintenance
schedule to prevent deterioration of oil
performance.
Check the engine oil following the
below procedure.
1. Follow all of the oil manufacturer’s precautions.
2. Be sure the vehicle is on the level ground in P (Park) with the parking
brake set and the wheels blocked.
3. Turn the engine on and warm the engine up until the coolant
temperature reaches a constant
normal temperature.
4. Turn the engine off, remove the oil filler cap and pull the dipstick out.
Wait for 15 minutes for the oil to return
to the oil pan.
5. Wipe the dipstick clean and re-insert it fully.

7. If the oil level is below the L, add enough oil to bring the level to F.
Use only the specified engine oil (Refer
to “Recommended Lubricants and
Capacities” section in chapter 2).
NOTICE
To prevent damage to your engine:

[ Do not spill engine oil when adding
or changing engine oil. Wipe off
spilled oil immediately.

[ The engine oil consumption may
increase while you break in a new
vehicle and it will be stabilized after
driving 4,000 miles (6,000 km).

[ The engine oil consumption can be
affected by driving habits, climate
conditions, traffic conditions,
oil quality, etc. Therefore, it is
recommended that you inspect the
engine oil level regularly and refill it
if necessary.
