NOTICE
OJX1069041LOJX1069041L[A] : Battery sensor
If the AGM battery is reconnected or 
replaced, ISG system will not operate 
immediately. If you want to use the 
system, the battery sensor needs to be 
calibrated for approximately 4 hours 
with the engine off. 
After calibration, turn the engine on and 
off 2 or 3 times.

Backing up
Hold the bottom of the steering wheel 
with one hand. Then, to move the trailer 
to the left, move your hand to the left. To 
move the trailer to the right, move your 
hand to the right. Always back up slowly 
and, if possible, have someone guide 
you.
Making turns
When you’re turning with a trailer, make 
wider turns than normal. Do this so your 
trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs, 
road signs, trees, or other objects. Avoid 
jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well in 
advance.
Turn signals
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has 
to have a different turn signal flasher and 
extra wiring. The green arrows on your 
instrument panel will flash whenever you 
signal a turn or lane change. Properly 
connected, the trailer lights will also flash 
to alert other drivers you’re about to turn, 
change lanes, or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows 
on your instrument panel will flash for 
turns even if the bulbs on the trailer 
are burned out. Thus, you may think 
drivers behind you are seeing your 
signals when, in fact, they are not. It’s 
important to check frequently to be sure 
the trailer bulbs are still working. You 
must also check the lights every time 
you disconnect and then reconnect the 
wires.
 WARNING
Do not connect a trailer lighting system 
directly to your vehicle’s lighting 
system. Use an approved trailer wiring 
harness. Failure to do so could result in 
damage to the vehicle electrical system 
and/or personal injury. Consult an 
authorized retailer of Genesis Branded 
products for assistance.
Driving on hills
Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear 
before you start down a long or steep 
downgrade. If you don’t shift to a lower 
gear, you may have to use your brakes 
excessively and they would overheat and 
may not operate efficiently.
On a long uphill grade, shift to a lower 
gear and reduce your speed to around 
45 mph (70 km/h) to reduce the 
possibility of engine and transmission 
overheating.
If your trailer weighs more than the 
maximum trailer weight without trailer 
brakes and you have an automatic 
transmission, you should drive in D 
(Drive) when towing a trailer.
Operating your vehicle in D (Drive) 
when towing a trailer will minimize heat 
build-up and extend the life of your 
transmission.

NOTICE
To prevent engine and/or transmission 
overheating:
• When towing a trailer on steep 
grades (in excess of 6%) pay close 
attention to the engine coolant 
temperature gauge to ensure the 
engine does not overheat. If the 
needle of the coolant temperature 
gauge moves towards “H” (HOT), 
pull over and stop as soon as it is 
safe to do so, and allow the engine 
to idle until it cools down. You may 
proceed once the engine has cooled 
sufficiently.
• When towing a trailer, your vehicle 
speed may be much slower than the 
general flow of traffic, especially 
when climbing an uphill grade. Use 
the right hand lane when towing a 
trailer on an uphill grade. Choose 
your vehicle speed according to the 
maximum posted speed limit for 
vehicles with trailers, the steepness 
of the grade, and your trailer weight.
Parking on hills
Generally, if you have a trailer attached 
to your vehicle, you should not park your 
vehicle on a hill.
However, if you ever have to park your 
trailer on a hill, here’s how to do it:
1.  Pull the vehicle into the parking space.
Turn the steering wheel in the 
direction of the curb (right if headed 
down hill, left if headed up hill).
2.  Shift the gear to P (Park).
3.  Set the parking brake and shut off the 
vehicle.
4.  Place wheel chocks under the trailer 
wheels on the down hill side of the 
wheels.
5.  Start the vehicle, hold the brakes, shift 
to neutral, release the parking brake 
and slowly release the brakes until the 
trailer chocks absorb the load.
6.  Reapply the brakes and parking 
brakes.
7.  Shift the gear to P (Park) when the 
vehicle is parked on a uphill grade and 
in R (Reverse) on a downhill.
8.  Shut off the vehicle and release the 
vehicle brakes but leave the parking 
brake set.
 WARNING
To prevent serious or fatal injury:
• Do not get out of the vehicle without 
the parking brake firmly set. If you 
have left the engine running, the 
vehicle can move suddenly. You and 
others could be seriously or fatally 
injured.
• Do not apply the accelerator pedal to 
hold the vehicle on an uphill.

Driving the vehicle after it has been 
parked on a hill
1.  With the gear in P (Park), apply your 
brakes and hold the brake pedal down 
while you:
• Start your engine;
• Shift into gear; and
• Release the parking brake.
2.  Slowly remove your foot from the 
brake pedal.
3.  Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of 
the chocks.
4.  Stop and have someone pick up and 
store the chocks.
Maintenance When Towing a 
Trailer
Your vehicle will need service more 
often when you regularly pull a trailer. 
Important items to pay particular 
attention to include engine oil, 
transmission fluid, axle lubricant and 
cooling system fluid. Brake condition 
is another important item to frequently 
check. If you’re trailering, it’s a good 
idea to review these items before 
you start your trip. Don’t forget to 
also maintain your trailer and hitch. 
Follow the maintenance schedule that 
accompanied your trailer and check it 
periodically. Preferably, conduct the 
check at the start of each day’s driving. 
Most importantly, all hitch nuts and bolts 
should be tight.
NOTICE
To prevent vehicle damage:
• Due to higher load during trailer 
usage, overheating might occur on 
hot days or during uphill driving. 
If the coolant gauge indicates 
over-heating, switch off the air 
conditioner and stop the vehicle in a 
safe area to cool down the engine.
• Do not switch off the engine while 
the coolant gauge indicates over-
heating.
(Keep the engine idle to cool down 
the engine)
• When towing check transmission 
fluid more frequently.
