Driving your vehicle
Good Braking Practices
Wet brakes can be dangerous! The
brakes may get wet if the vehicle is
driven through standing water or if it
is washed. Your vehicle will not stop
as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet
brakes may cause the products to
pull to one side.
To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns
to normal, taking care to keep the
vehicle under control at all times. If
the braking action does not return to
normal, stop as soon as it is safe to
do so and call an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products for
assistance.
DO NOT drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
constant pedal pressure can result in
the brakes overheating, brake wear,
and possibly even brake failure.If a tire goes flat while you are driv-
ing, apply the brakes gently and
keep the vehicle pointed straight
ahead while you slow down. When
you are moving slowly enough for it
to be safe to do so, pull off the road
and stop in a safe location.
Keep your foot firmly on the brake
pedal when the vehicle is stopped to
prevent the vehicle from rolling for-
ward.
Whenever leaving the vehicle or
parking, always come to a com-
plete stop and continue to
depress the brake pedal. Shift
the gear to P (Park), apply the
parking brake, and press the
Engine Start/Stop button to the
OFF.
Vehicles with the parking brake
not fully engaged are at risk for
moving inadvertently and caus-
ing injury to yourself or others.
WARNING

Using All Wheel Drive (AWD)
The All Wheel Drive (AWD) system
delivers engine power to front and
rear wheels for maximum traction.
AWD is useful when extra traction is
required, such as when driving on,
muddy, wet, or snow-covered roads.
If the system determines there is a
need for four wheel drive, the
engine's driving power is distributed
to all four wheels automatically.

If the AWD warning light ( )
stays on the instrument cluster,
your vehicle may have a mal-
function with the AWD system.
When the AWD warning light
( ) illuminates have your
vehicle checked by an author-
ized retailer of Genesis Branded
products as soon as possible.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
Do not drive in conditions that
exceed the vehicles intended
design such as challenging
off-road conditions.
Avoid high speeds when cor- nering or turning.
Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,
sharp turns.
The risk of a rollover is great- ly increased if you lose con-
trol of your vehicle at highway
speeds.
Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off
the roadway and the driver
over steers to reenter the
roadway.
In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not
steer sharply. Instead, slow
down before pulling back into
the travel lanes.
Always drive safely and use caution when driving an AWD
vehicle.
WARNING

The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is designed to
help detect and monitor the vehicle
ahead or help detect a pedestrian in
the roadway through radar signals
and camera recognition to warn the
driver that a collision is imminent,
and if necessary, apply emergency
braking.System Setting and Operation
System setting
Setting Forward Safety functionThe Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) can be activated from
the Settings menu in the AVN sys-
tem screen by following the proce-
dure below.
1. Set the Engine Start/Stop button to the ON or START position.
2. Select 'Setup → Vehicle Settings
→ Driver Assistance → Forward
Safety →Active Assist / Warning
Only / Off' in the AVN system
screen. For detailed informa-
tion, scan the QR code in a
separately supplied simple
manual.
- If you select 'Active Assist', the FCA system activates. The FCA
produces warning messages
and warning alarms in accor-
dance with the collision risk lev-
els. Braking assist will be
applied in accordance with the
collision risk.
- If you select 'Warning Only', the FCA system activates and pro-
duces only warning alarms in
accordance with the collision
risk levels. Braking assist will
not be applied in this setting.
- If you select 'Off', the FCA sys- tem deactivates. The FCA
warning light ( ) illuminates
on the cluster.

Take the following precautions
when using the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system:
This system is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it
replace the need for extreme
care and attention of the driv-
er. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sen-
sors are limited. Pay attention
to the road conditions at all
times.
Drive at posted speed limits and accordance to road con-
ditions.
Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. The Forward Collision-
Avoidance system may not
always stop the vehicle com-
pletely and is only intended to
help mitigate a collision that
is imminent.
WARNING

The warning light illu-
minates on the instru-
ment cluster, when you
cancel the FCA system.
The driver can monitor the FCA
ON/OFF status in the instrument
cluster. Also, the warning light illu-
minates when the ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) is turned off. If the
warning light remains ON when the
FCA is activated, have the system
checked by an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products.
Selecting Warning Timing The diver can select the initial
warning activation time from the
Settings menu in the AVN system
screen. Select:
- Setup →Vehicle Settings →
Driver Assistance →Warning
Timing →Normal / Late
For detailed information, scan
the QR code in a separately sup-
plied simple manual. The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the fol-
lowing:
- Normal:
When this option is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning is
activated sensitively. If you feel the
warning activates too early, set the
Forward Collision Warning to
'Late'.
Even though, 'Normal' is selected if
the front vehicle suddenly stops
the initial warning activation time
may not seem fast.
- Late: When this option is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning is
activated later than normal. This
setting reduces the amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle or
pedestrian ahead before the initial
warning occurs.
Select 'Late' when traffic is light
and when driving speed is slow.
When you accelerate suddenly to
the vehicle ahead, the warning
may seem to activate earlier even if
'Late' is selected.
Information
If you change the warning timing, the
warning time of other systems may
change.

Prerequisite for activation
The FCA system will activate when
'Active Assist' or 'Warning Only' under
Forward Safety is selected in the AVN
system screen, and when the follow-
ing prerequisites are satisfied.
ESC (Electronic Stability Control)is on.
Vehicle speed is over 5 mph (8 km/h). (The FCA is only activated
within a certain speed range.)
The system detects a pedestrian or a vehicle in front, which may col-
lide with your vehicle. However,
FCA may not be activated or may
only sound a warning alarm
depending on the driving or vehicle
conditions.
FCA may not operate properly
according to the frontal situation or
the direction of a pedestrian.
FCA Warning Message and
Brake Control
FCA produces warning messages,
warning alarms, and emergency
braking based on the level of risk of
a frontal collision, such as when a
vehicle ahead suddenly brakes, or
the system detects that a collision
with a pedestrian is imminent.

To avoid driver distractions,
do not attempt to set or can-
cel the FCA while driving the
vehicle. Always completely
stop the vehicle at a safe
place before setting or cancel-
ing the system.
FCA automatically activates upon placing the Engine
Start/Stop button to the ON or
START position. The driver
can deactivate FCA by cancel-
ing the system setting in the
AVN system screen.
FCA automatically deacti- vates upon canceling ESC.
When ESC is canceled, FCA
cannot be activated in the
AVN system screen. In this sit-
uation, the FCA warning light
will illuminate which is nor-
mal.

FCA is only a supplementalsystem for the driver's con-
venience. It is the driver's
responsibility to control the
vehicle operation. Do not
solely depend on the FCA
system. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce the driving
speed or to stop the vehicle.
WARNING
In certain instances andunder certain driving condi-
tions, the FCA system may
produce a warning alarm and
control the brake system
unnecessarily. And, the FCA
system may not produce a
warning alarm and control the
brake system due to detecting
limitation of sensor.
Also due to sensing limita-
tions, in certain situations, the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle or pedestri-
an ahead. The FCA system
may not activate and the
warning message may not be
displayed.
Even if there is any problem with the brake control func-
tion of the FCA system, the
vehicle's basic braking per-
formance will operate normal-
ly. However, brake control
function for avoiding collision
will not activate.
If the vehicle in front stops suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
The FCA system may activate during braking and the vehi-
cle may stop suddenly shift-
ing loose objects toward the
passengers. Always keep
loose objects secured.
The FCA system may not acti- vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid collision.

adversely affect the safety of
your vehicle or the towing
vehicle.
Use extreme caution when the vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward
from the cab, or when the
vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance.
The FCA system is designed to help detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead or detect a
pedestrian in the roadway
through radar signals and
camera recognition. It is not
designed to detect motorcy-
cles, or smaller wheeled
objects such as luggage
bags, shopping carts, or
strollers.
Never try to test the operation of the FCA system. Doing so
may cause severe injury or
death.
If the front bumper, front glass, radar or camera have
been replaced or repaired,
have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
