Air bag warning light
This warning light illuminates:

[When you set the Start/Stop button to
the ON position.
-The air bag warning light illuminates
for about 6 seconds and then turns
off when all checks have been
performed.

[The air bag warning light will remain
illuminated if there is a malfunction
with the Safety Restraint System (SRS)
air bag operation.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
Regenerative brake warning
light
This warning light illuminates:
When the regenerative brake does not
operate and the brake does not perform
well. This causes the Brake Warning
light (red) and Regenerative Brake
Warning Light (yellow) to illuminate
simultaneously.
In this case, drive safely and have your
vehicle inspected by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products.
The operation of the brake pedal may
be more difficult than normal and the
braking distance can increase.
Parking brake & brake fluid
warning light
This warning light illuminates:

[When you set the START/STOP button
in the ON position.
-It illuminates for approximately 3
seconds.
-It remains on if the parking brake is
applied.

[When the parking brake is applied.

[When the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
-If the warning light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.

[When the regenerative brake does not
operate.
If the brake fluid level in the reservoir is
low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the motor stopped, check the
brake fluid level immediately and add
fluid as required (For more details,
refer to “Brake Fluid” section in
chapter 9). After adding brake fluid,
check all brake components for fluid
leaks. If a brake fluid leak is found, or
if the warning light remains on, or if
the brakes do not operate properly, do
not drive the vehicle. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.

4-14
Instrument Cluster
Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal braking system. This means you
still have braking on two wheels even if
one of the dual systems should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal travel
and greater pedal pressure is required to
stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working.
If the brakes fail while you are driving,
shift to a lower gear for additional vehicle
braking and stop the vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so.
WARNING
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid warning
light
Driving the vehicle with a warning light
ON is dangerous. If the Parking Brake
& Brake Fluid warning light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid level is
low.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
warning light
This warning light illuminates:

[When you set the Start/Stop button to
the ON position.
-The ABS warning light illuminates
for about 3 seconds and then goes
off.

[Whenever there is a malfunction with
the ABS.
Note that the hydraulic braking
system will still be operational even if
there is a malfunction with the ABS.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
Electronic Brake Force
Distribution (EBD) system
warning light
When the ABS warning and
Parking Brake warning lights are on
simultaneously, it may indicate a
problem with the Electronic Brake Force
Distribution system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.

4-16
Instrument Cluster

off.

[Whenever there is a malfunction with
EPB.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
Information
The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB)
warning light may illuminate when
the Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
indicator light comes on to indicate that
ESC is not working properly. This does
not indicate malfunction of EPB.
Low tire pressure warning
light
This warning light illuminates:

[When you set the Start/Stop button to
the ON position.
-The low tire pressure warning light
illuminates for approximately 3
seconds and then goes off.

[When one or more of your tires are
significantly underinflated. (The
location of the underinflated tires are
displayed on the LCD display.)
For more details, refer to “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” section in
chapter 8.
This warning light remains ON after
blinking for approximately 60 seconds, or
repeatedly blinks ON and OFF in 3 second
intervals:
When there is a malfunction with the
TPMS.
If this occurs, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products as soon as possible.

external factors.

[If you notice any vehicle instability,
immediately take your foot off the
accelerator pedal, apply the brakes
gradually with light force, and slowly
move to a safe position off the road.

Check P button
OJK060063L
This message is displayed when there is
a problem with the P button.
Have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products.
Rotary shifter stuck
OJK060064L
This message is displayed when the
rotary gear shift dial does not return back
to it’s normal position after rotating it.
Have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products.
Good Driving Practices

[Never shift the gear from P (Park) or
N (Neutral) to any other position with
the accelerator pedal depressed.

[Never shift the gear into P (Park) when
the vehicle is in motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).

[Do not shift the gear to N (Neutral)
when driving. If the gear is shifted to
N (Neutral) while driving, doing so
may increase the risk of an accident.
Also, shifting the gear back to D
(Drive) while the vehicle is moving
may severely damage the reduction
gear.

[When driving uphill or downhill,
always shift to D (Drive) for driving
forward or shift to R (Reverse) for
driving backwards, and check the
gear position indicated on the cluster
or the rotary gear shift dial before
driving. Driving in the opposite
direction of the selected gear, can
lead to a dangerous situation by
shutting off the vehicle and affecting
the braking performance.

[Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can result
in the brakes overheating, brake wear
and possibly even brake failure.

[Always apply the parking brake when
leaving the vehicle. Do not depend
on placing the shift gear in P (Park) to
keep the vehicle from moving.

[Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
