Maintenance
Owner Maintenance Schedule
When you stop for charging:

[Check the coolant level in the coolant
reservoir.

[Check the windshield washer fluid
level.

[Check for low or under-inflated tires.
WARNING
Be careful when checking your coolant
level if the motor compartment is hot.
This may result in coolant being blown
out of the opening and cause serious
burns and other injuries.
While operating your vehicle:

[Check for vibrations in the steering
wheel. Notice if there is any increased
steering effort or looseness in the
steering wheel, or change in its
straight-ahead position.

[Notice if your vehicle constantly turns
slightly or “pulls” to one side when
traveling on smooth, level road.

[When stopping, listen and check for
unusual sounds, pulling to one side,
increased brake pedal travel or “hard-
to-push” brake pedal.

[Check the shift gear P (Park) function.

[Check the parking brake.

[Check for fluid leaks under your
vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
At least monthly:

[Check coolant level in the coolant
reservoir.

[Check the operation of all exterior
lights, including the stoplights, turn
signals and hazard warning flashers.

[Check the inflation pressures of all
tires including the spare for tires that
are worn, show uneven wear, or are
damaged.

[Check for loose wheel lug nuts.
At least twice a year: (for example,
every Spring and Autumn)

[Check radiator, heater and air
conditioning hoses for leaks or
damage.

[Check windshield washer spray and
wiper operation. Clean wiper blades
with a clean cloth dampened with
washer fluid.

[Check headlamp alignment.

[Check the seat belts for wear and
function.

Maintenance
Checking the Brake Fluid Level
ORG3EV091004
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the side
of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap and
adding brake fluid, clean the area around
the reservoir cap thoroughly to prevent
brake fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add the specified brake
fluid to the MAX level. The level will fall
with accumulated kilometers. This is a
normal condition associated with the
wear of the brake linings. If the fluid level
is excessively low, have the brake system
checked by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
WARNING
If the brake system requires frequent
additions of fluid this could indicate
a leak in the brake system. Have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products.
WARNING
Do not let brake fluid enter into your
eyes. If brake fluid gets in your eyes,
flush your eyes with clean water for
at least 15 minutes and get immediate
medical attention.
NOTICE

[Do not allow brake fluid to contact
the vehicle’s body paint, as it will
result in paint damage.

[NEVER use brake fluid which has
been exposed to open air for an
extended time, as its quality cannot
be guaranteed. It should be disposed
of properly.

[Do not use the wrong type of brake
fluid. A few drops of mineral based
oil in your brake system can damage
brake system parts.
Information
Use only the specified brake fluid (refer
to “Recommended Lubricants and
Capacities” section in chapter 2).

Checking the Washer Fluid Level
ORG3EV091005
Check the fluid level in the washer fluid
reservoir and add fluid if necessary. Plain
water may be used if washer fluid is not
available. However, use washer solvent
with antifreeze characteristics in cold
climates to prevent freezing.
WARNING
To prevent serious injury or death, take
the following safety precautions when
using washer fluid:

[Do not use coolant or antifreeze in
the washer fluid reservoir. Coolant
can severely obscure visibility when
sprayed on the windshield and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident or damage to
paint and body trim.

[Do not allow sparks or flame to
contact the washer fluid or the
washer fluid reservoir. Washer fluid
may contain alcohol and can be
flammable.

[Do not drink washer fluid and avoid
contact with skin. Washer fluid is
harmful to humans and animals.

[Keep washer fluid away from
children and animals.
WASHER FLUID REDUCTION GEAR FLUID
There is no reduction gear fluid level
gauge in the vehicle. Check the
reduction gear fluid every 60,000 km
regularly. If the vehicle is driven under
severe condition, check the maintenance
under severe usage condition and
consult an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.

Maintenance
NOTICE

[Do not use strong soap, chemical
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 chemical
solvents or strong detergents.
NOTICE
ORG3EV091039

[Water washing in the motor
compartment including high
pressure water washing may cause
the failure of electrical circuits
located in the vehicle compartment.

[Never allow water or other liquids
to come in contact with electrical/
electronic components inside the
vehicle as water or other liquids may
flow in to the motor compartment
through the front trunk and damage
electrical/electronic components.
NOTICE
Matte paint finish vehicle (if equipped)
Automatic car wash which uses rotating
brushes should not be used as this can
damage the surface 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, contaminant, etc.), clean the
surface with water before washing the
car.
Waxing
A good coat of wax is a barrier between
your paint and contaminate. 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 maintain its luster.
Removing oil, tar, and similar materials
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 waxing.

9-57
09
NOTICE

[Wiping dust or dirt off the body with
a dry cloth will scratch the finish.

[Do not use steel wool, abrasive
cleaners, or strong detergents
containing highly alkaline or
caustic agents on chrome-plated or
anodized aluminum parts. This may
result in damage to the protective
coating and cause discoloration or
paint deterioration.
NOTICE
Matte paint finish vehicle (if equipped)
Do not use any polish protector such as
a detergent, an abrasive and a polish.
In case wax is applied, remove the wax
immediately using a silicon remover
and if any tar or tar contaminant is on
the surface use a tar remover to clean.
However, be careful not to apply too
much pressure on the painted area.
Finish damage repair
Deep scratches or stone chips in the
painted surface must be repaired
promptly. Exposed metal will quickly
rust and may develop into a major repair
expense.
NOTICE
If your vehicle is damaged and requires
any metal repair or replacement,
be sure the body shop applies anti-
corrosion materials to the parts
repaired or replaced.
NOTICE
Matte paint finish vehicle (if equipped)
In case of matte paint finish vehicles,
it is impossible to modify only the
damaged area and repair of the whole
part is necessary. If the vehicle is
damaged and painting is required, have
your vehicle maintained and repaired
by an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products. Take extreme care,
as it is difficult to restore the quality
after the repair.
Bright-metal maintenance

[To remove road tar and insects, use
a tar remover, not a scraper or other
sharp object.

[To protect the surfaces of brightmetal
parts from corrosion, apply a coating
of wax or chrome preservative and rub
to a high luster.

[During winter weather or in coastal
areas, cover the bright metal parts
with a heavier coating of wax or
preservative. If necessary, coat the
parts with non-corrosive petroleum
jelly or other protective compound.

9-58
Maintenance
Underbody maintenance
Corrosive materials used for ice and
snow removal and dust control may
collect on the underbody. If these
materials are not removed, accelerated
rusting can occur on underbody parts
such as the frame and floor pan, even
though they have been treated with rust
protection.
Thoroughly flush the vehicle underbody
and wheel openings with lukewarm or
cold water once a month, after off-road
driving and at the end of each winter. Pay
special attention to these areas because
it is difficult to see all the mud and dirt.
It will do more harm than good to wet
down the road grime without removing
it. The lower edges of doors, rocker
panels, and frame members have drain
holes that should not be allowed to clog
with dirt; trapped water in these areas
can cause rusting.
WARNING
After washing the vehicle, test the
brakes while driving slowly to see if
they have been affected by water. If
braking performance is impaired, dry
the brakes by applying them lightly
while maintaining a slow forward
speed.
Aluminum wheel maintenance
The aluminum wheels are coated with a
clear protective finish.

[Do not use abrasive cleaner, polishing
compound, solvent, or wire brushes
on aluminum wheels.

[Clean the wheel when it has cooled.

[Use only a mild soap or neutral
detergent, and rinse thoroughly with
water. Also, clean the wheels after
driving on salted roads.

[Do not wash the wheels with high-
speed car wash brushes.

[Do not use any cleaners containing
acid or alkaline detergents.
Corrosion protection
Protecting your vehicle from corrosion
By using the most advanced design
and construction practices to combat
corrosion, Genesis Branded Vehicle
produces vehicles of the highest quality.
However, this is only part of the job.
To achieve the long-term corrosion
resistance your vehicle can deliver, the
owner’s cooperation and assistance is
also required.
Common causes of corrosion
The most common causes of corrosion
on your vehicle are:

[Road salt, dirt and moisture that is
allowed to accumulate underneath
the vehicle.

[Removal of paint or protective
coatings by stones, gravel, abrasion
or minor scrapes and dents which
leave unprotected metal exposed to
corrosion.
