NOTICE
If any of the below happens, have
the system checked by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded prod-
ucts.
1. The Low Tire Pressure Telltale/
TPMS Malfunction Indicator
does not illuminate for 3 seconds
when the Engine Start/Stop but-
ton is turned to the ON position
or engine is running.
2. The TPMS Malfunction Indicator
remains illuminated after blink-
ing for approximately 1 minute.
3. The Low Tire Pressure Position
Telltale remains illuminated.
Low tire pressure
telltale
Low tire pres-
sure position
and tire pres-
sure telltale
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated and warning message dis-
played on the cluster LCD display,
one or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated. The Low Tire
Pressure Position Telltale will indi-
cate which tire is significantly under-
inflated by illuminating the corre-
sponding position light.
If either telltale illuminates, immedi-
ately reduce your speed, avoid hard
cornering and anticipate increased
stopping distances. You should stop
and check your tires as soon as pos-
sible. Inflate the tires to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehi-
cle's placard or tire inflation pressure
label located on the driver's side cen-
ter pillar outer panel.If you cannot reach a service station
or if the tire cannot hold the newly
added air, replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire.
The Low Tire Pressure Telltale will
remain on and the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator may blink for one minute
and then remain illuminated (when
the vehicle is driven approximately
20 minutes at speed above 15.5 mph
(25 km/h)) until you have the low
pressure tire repaired and replaced
on the vehicle.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
The spare tire is not equipped with a
tire pressure sensor.

What to do in an emergency
You may not be able to identify a tire
with low pressure by simply looking
at it. Always use a good quality tire
pressure gauge to measure. Please
note that a tire that is hot (from being
driven) will have a higher pressure
measurement than a tire that is cold.
A cold tire means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven for
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3
hour period.
Allow the tire to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tire is cold before inflating to
the recommended pressure.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
This device complies with Part 15 of
the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following
three conditions:
1. This device may not cause harm-
ful interference, and
2. This device must accept any inter-
ference received, including inter-
ference that may cause undesired
operation.
3. Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to oper-
ate the equipment.
The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tire dam-
age caused by external fac-
tors such as nails or road
debris.
If you feel any vehicle instabil-
ity, immediately take your foot
off the accelerator, apply the
brakes gradually with light
force, and slowly move to a
safe position off the road.

Maintenance
Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
• Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in the engine
coolant reservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid
level.
Check for low or under-inflated
tires.
While operating your vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound of
the exhaust or any smell of
exhaust fumes in the vehicle.
Check for vibrations in the steering
wheel. Notice if there is any
increased steering effort or loose-
ness in the steering wheel, or
change in its straight-ahead posi-
tion.
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.
If any slipping or changes in the
operation of your transmission
occurs, check the transmission
fluid level.
Check the automatic transmission
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 engine
coolant reservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior
lights, including the stoplights, turn
signals and hazard warning flash-
ers.
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. Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. This may result in
coolant being blown out of the
opening and cause serious
burns and other injuries.

Keep the battery securely mount-
ed.
Keep the battery top clean and dry.
Keep the terminals and connec-
tions clean, tight, and coated with
petroleum jelly or terminal grease.
Rinse any spilled acid from the bat-
tery immediately with a solution of
water and baking soda.
Battery recharging
By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes discharged
in a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlights or interior lights
were left on while the vehicle was
not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges
because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours.AGM battery
Absorbent Glass Matt (AGM)
batteries are maintenance-
free and we recommend that
the AGM battery be serviced
by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
For charging your AGM bat-
tery, use only fully automatic
battery chargers that are spe-
cially developed for AGM bat-
teries.
When replacing the AGM bat-
tery, we recommend that you
use parts for replacement
from an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
Do not open or remove the
cap on top of the battery. This
may cause leaks of internal
electrolyte that could result in
severe injury.
CAUTION

Maintenance
By jump starting
After a jump start from a good bat-
tery, idle vehicle with headlights on
for 20-30 minutes and then drive the
vehicle for 20-30 minutes before it is
shut off. The vehicle may not restart
if you shut it off before the battery
had a chance to adequately
recharge. See "Jump Starting" in
chapter 6 for more information on
jump starting procedures.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
An inappropriately disposed
battery can be harmful to
the environment and human
health. Dispose of the bat-
tery according to your local
law(s) or regulations.
Always follow these instruc-
tions when recharging your

Maintenance
Because the sidewall of the low
aspect ratio tire is shorter than
the normal, the wheel and tire of
the low aspect ratio tire is easi-
er to be damaged. So, follow the
instructions below.
- When driving on a rough road
or off road, drive cautiously
because tires and wheels may
be damaged. And after driving,
inspect tires and wheels.
- When passing over a pothole,
speed bump, manhole, or curb
stone, drive slowly so that the
tires and wheels are not dam-
aged.
- If the tire is impacted, we rec-
ommend that you inspect the
tire condition or contact an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
- To prevent damage to the tire,
inspect the tire condition and
pressure every 1,800 miles
(3,000km).
CAUTION
It is not easy to recognize tire
damage with your own eyes.
But if there is the slightest
hint of tire damage, have the
tire checked or replaced
because the tire damage may
cause air leakage from the
tire.
If the tire is damaged by driv-
ing on a rough road, off road,
pothole, manhole, or curb
stone, it will not be covered by
the warranty.
