furnishings in a vehicle, contain or
emit harmful chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer and
birth defects and reproductive harm.
In addition, certain fluids contained
in vehicles and certain products of
components contain or emit chemicals
known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
Before Entering the Vehicle
[ Be sure all windows, outside mirror(s),
and outside lights are clean and
unobstructed.
[ Remove frost, snow, or ice.
[ Visually check the tires for uneven
wear and damage.
[ Check under the vehicle for any sign
of leaks.
[ Be sure there are no obstacles behind
you if you intend to back up.
Before Starting
[ Make sure the hood, the trunk, and
the doors are securely closed and
locked.
[ Adjust the position of the seat and
steering wheel.
[ Adjust the inside and outside rearview
mirrors.
[ Verify all the lights work.
[ Fasten your seat belt. Check that all
passengers have fastened their seat
belts.
[ Check the gauges and indicators
in the instrument panel and the
messages on the instrument display
when the vehicle is in the ON position.[ Check that any items you are carrying
are stored properly or fastened down
securely.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH, take the following precautions:
[ ALWAYS wear your seat belt. All
passengers must be properly belted
whenever the vehicle is moving.
For more information, refer to “Seat
Belts” section in chapter 3.
[ Always drive defensively. Assume
other drivers or pedestrians may be
careless and make mistakes.
[ Stay focused on the task of driving.
Driver distraction can cause
accidents.
[ Leave plenty of space between you
and the vehicle in front of you.
WARNING
NEVER drink or take drugs and drive.
Drinking or taking drugs and driving
is dangerous and may result in an
accident and SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH.
Drunk driving is the number one
contributor to the highway death
toll each year. Even a small amount
of alcohol will affect your reflexes,
perceptions and judgment. Just
one drink can reduce your ability to
respond to changing conditions and
emergencies and your reaction time
gets worse with each additional drink.
Driving while under the influence
of drugs is as dangerous as or more
dangerous than driving under the
influence of alcohol.
You are much more likely to have a
serious accident if you drink or take
drugs and drive. If you are drinking or
taking drugs, don’t drive. Do not ride
with a driver who has been drinking
or taking drugs. Choose a designated
driver or call a taxi.

[ Never disassemble the camera
assembly, or apply any impact on the
camera assembly.

System Malfunction
OIK060073L
Check Electronic Suspension
When Electronically Controlled
Suspension with Road Preview is not
working properly, this warning message
will appear on the cluster LCD display. If
this occurs, have the system inspected
by an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
NOTICE
If the battery level is high or low,
Electronically Controlled Suspension
with Road Preview may not work
temporarily to protect the system. If this
occurs, ‘Check Electronic Suspension’
warning message will appear.
Limitations of the System
Electronically Controlled Suspension
with Road Preview always operates
while driving according to the vehicle’s
movement, and the preview function
starts to work when the front view
camera detects road conditions such as
speed bumps. Therefore, the preview
function is limited when there is an
extreme condition that the front view
camera may not work normally. In this
case, the electronic control suspension
function operates without the preview
function in accordance with vehicle
movement.

Information
The ESC system must be turned OFF
before rocking the vehicle.
NOTICE
If you are still stuck after rocking the
vehicle a few times, have the vehicle
pulled out by a tow vehicle to avoid
motor overheating, possible damage to
the shift by wire, and tire damage. See
“Towing” section in chapter 8.
Smooth Cornering
Avoid braking or gear changing in
corners, especially when roads are wet.
Ideally, corners should always be taken
under gentle acceleration.
Driving at Night
Night driving presents more hazards than
driving in the daylight. Here are some
important tips to remember:
[ Slow down and keep more distance
between you and other vehicles, as it
may be more difficult to see at night,
especially in areas where there may
not be any street lights.
[ Adjust your mirrors to reduce the glare
from other drivers’ headlamps.
[ Keep your headlamps clean and
properly aimed. Dirty or improperly
aimed headlamps will make it much
more difficult to see at night.
[ Avoid staring directly at the
headlamps of oncoming vehicles. You
could be temporarily blinded, and it
will take several seconds for your eyes
to readjust to the darkness.
Driving in the Rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous. Here are a few things to
consider when driving in the rain or on
slick pavement:
[ Slow down and allow extra following
distance. A heavy rainfall makes
it harder to see and increases the
distance needed to stop your vehicle.
[ Turn off your Smart Cruise Control.
[ Replace your windshield wiper blades
when they show signs of streaking or
missing areas on the windshield.
[ Be sure your tires have enough tread.
If your tires do not have enough tread,
making a quick stop on wet pavement
can cause a skid and possibly lead to
an accident. See “Tire Tread” section
in chapter 9.
[ Turn on your headlamps to make it
easier for others to see you.
[ Driving too fast through large puddles
can affect your brakes. If you must go
through puddles, try to drive through
them slowly.
[ If you believe your brakes may be wet,
apply them lightly while driving until
normal braking operation returns.
