Electric power steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the engine is turned off
or if the power steering system
becomes inoperative, you may still
steer the vehicle, but it will require
increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort may be high
immediately after placing the
Engine Start/Stop button in the
ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics is complet-
ed, the steering wheel will return
to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from
the EPS relay after the Engine
Start/Stop button is in the ON or
OFF position.
• Motor noise may be heard when
the vehicle is at stop or at a low
driving speed.
• When you operate the steering
wheel in low temperature, abnor-
mal noise may occur. If tempera-
ture rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.
Tilt steering / Telescope steering
Adjust the steering wheel so it points
toward your chest, not toward your
face. Make sure you can see the
instrument panel warning lights and
gauges. After adjusting, push the
steering wheel both up and down to
be certain it is locked in position.
Always adjust the position of the
steering wheel before driving.
If the Electric Power Steering
System does not operate nor-
mally, the warning light ( ) will
illuminate on the instrument
cluster. The steering wheel will
require increase effort. Take
your vehicle to an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded
products and have the system
checked as soon as possible.
CAUTION
NEVER adjust the steering
wheel while driving. This may
cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.

Inside rearview mirror
Before you start driving, adjust the
rearview mirror to the center on the
view through the rear window.
Electric chromic mirror (ECM)
with HomeLink®system, com-
pass and Genesis Connected
Service (Blue Link
®) (for U.S.A)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
Gentex Automatic-Dimming Mirror
with a Z-Nav™ Electronic Compass
Display and an Integrated
HomeLink
®Wireless Control
System. During nighttime driving,
this feature will automatically detect
and reduce rearview mirror glare
while the compass indicates the
direction the vehicle is pointed. The
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver
allows you to activate your garage
door(s), electric gate, home lighting,
etc. Make sure your line of sight is
not obstructed. Do not place
objects in the rear seat, cargo
area, or behind the rear head-
rests which could interfere with
your vision through the rear
window.
WARNING
NEVER adjust the mirror while
driving. This may cause loss of
vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
WARNING
To prevent serious injury during
an accident or deployment of
the air bag, do not modify the
rearview mirror and do not
install a wide mirror.
WARNING
When cleaning the mirror, use a
paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner.
Do not spray glass cleaner
directly on the mirror as that
may cause the liquid cleaner to
enter the mirror housing.

Convenient features of your vehicle
There are some conditions that can
cause changes to the vehicle mag-
nets, such as installing a ski rack or
a CB antenna. Body repair work on
the vehicle can also cause changes
to the vehicle's magnetic field. In
these situations, the compass will
need to be re-calibrated to quickly
correct these changes.
If you need to recalibrate the com-
pass:
1. Press and hold the Control Button
for more than 6 seconds. When
the compass memory is cleared, a
"C" will appear in the display.
2. Drive the vehicle in 2 complete cir-
cles at less than 5 mph (8 km/h).
Integrated HomeLink®Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink®Wireless Control
System can replace up to three
hand-held radio-frequency (RF)
transmitters with a single built-in
device. This innovative feature will
learn the radio frequency codes of
most current transmitters to operate
devices such as gate operators,
garage door openers, entry door
locks, security systems, even home
lighting. Both standard and rolling
code-equipped transmitters can be
programmed by following the out-
lined procedures.
Additional HomeLink
®information
can be found at: www.homelink.com,
www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex
or by calling 1-800-355-3515.
Retain the original transmitter of the
RF device you are programming for
use in other vehicles as well as for
future HomeLink
®programming. It is
also suggested that upon the sale of
the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
®buttons be erased for
security purposes.Before programming HomeLink
®
to a garage door opener or gate
operator, make sure people and
objects are out of the way of the
device to prevent potential harm
or damage. Do not use the
HomeLink
®with any garage
door opener that lacks the safe-
ty stop and reverse features
required by U.S. federal safety
standards (this includes any
garage door opener model man-
ufactured before April 1, 1982). A
garage door that cannot detect
an object - signaling the door to
stop and reverse - does not meet
current U.S. federal safety stan-
dards. Using a garage door
opener without these features
increases the risk of serious
injury or death.
