Introduction
Operation in foreign countries
If you are going to drive your vehicle
in another country, be sure to:
Observe all regulations regarding
registration and insurance.
Determine that acceptable fuel is
available.No special break-in period is need-
ed. By following a few simple precau-
tions for the first 600 miles (1,000
km) you may add to the perform-
ance, economy and life of your vehi-
cle.
Do not race the engine.
While driving, keep your engine
speed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
Do not maintain a single speed for
long periods of time, either fast or
slow. Varying engine speed is
needed to properly break-in the
engine.
Avoid hard stops, except in emer-
gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly.

started.
When the engine oil pressure is
low.
If the engine oil pressure is low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and check the
engine oil level (For more details,
refer to "Engine Oil" in chapter
7). If the level is low, add oil as
required. If the warning light
remains on after adding oil and
restarting the engine or if oil is not
available, turn off the engine.

that needs to be repaired before
you can continue driving. In this
case, have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.

minated and as soon as it is
safe to do so, turn the engine
off and check the oil level.
If the oil level is low, fill the
engine oil to the proper level
and start the engine again. If
the light stays on with the
engine running, turn the engine

Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a negative impact on the air con-
ditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by
an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
It is important that the correct type
and amount of oil and refrigerant is
used. Otherwise, damage to the
compressor and abnormal system
operation may occur.
The air conditioning system should
be serviced by an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products.
Air Conditioning refrigerant
label
The actual Air Conditioning refriger-
ant label in the vehicle may differ
from the illustration.
ODH043366 ■Example
Because
the refrig-
erant is
mildly
inflamma-
ble and at very high pressure,
the air conditioning system
should only be serviced by
trained and certified techni-
cians. It is important that the
correct type and amount of oil
and refrigerant is used.
Otherwise, it may cause dam-
age to the vehicle and personal
injury.

Carbon monoxide (CO) gas is toxic. Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness and death.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide which cannot be seen or smelled.
Do not inhale engine exhaust.
If at any time you smell engine exhaust inside the vehicle, open the windows immediately. Exposure to CO can cause
unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation.
Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.
The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If
you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the
vehicle, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded products.
Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.
Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Run the engine only
long enough to start the engine and to move the vehicle out of the garage.
Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the vehicle.
If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the vehicle, be sure to do so only in an
open area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan control set to high so fresh air is drawn into the interior.
Keep the air intakes clear.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, keep the ventilation air intakes located in front of the windshield
clear of snow, ice, leaves, or other obstructions.
If you must drive with the trunk open:
Close all windows.
Open instrument panel air vents.
Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face", and the fan control set to high.

stop any of the four wheels for turn-
ing. This could damage the sys-
tem.

while running the engine on a car
lift. This may damage the AWD
system.
Dynamometer testing
An AWD vehicle must be tested on a
special four wheel chassis
dynamometer.An AWD vehicle should not be tested
on a 2WD roll tester. If a 2WD roll
tester must be used, perform the fol-
lowing procedure:
1. Check the tire pressures recom-
mended for your vehicle.
2. Place the rear wheels on the roll
tester for a speedometer test as
shown in the illustration.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Place the front wheels on the tem-
porary free roller as shown in the
illustration.

Limitations of the System
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations may not work prop-
erly when :
It is difficult to distinguish the lane
marker from road when the lane
marker is covered with dust.
It is difficult to distinguish the color
of the lane marker from road.
There is something looks like a
lane marker.
The lane marker is indistinct or
damaged.
The number of lanes increases/
decreases or the lane lines are
crossing (Driving through a toll
plaza/toll gate, merged/divided
lane).
There are more than two lane
markers.
The lane marker is very thick or
thin.
The lane marker is not visible due
to snow, rain, stain, a puddle or
other factors. A shadow is on the lane marker
because of a median strip,
guardrail, noise barriers and oth-
ers.
When the lane markers are compli-
cated or a structure substitutes for
the lines such as a construction
area.
There are crosswalk signs or other
symbols on the road.
The lane marker in a tunnel is cov-
ered with dirt or oil.
The brightness of outside changes
suddenly when entering or existing
a tunnel.
The headlamps are not on at night
or in a tunnel, or light level is low.
There is a boundary structure in
the roadway.
The light of street, sun, oncoming
vehicle and so on reflects from the
water on the road.
When light shines brightly in the
reverse direction you drive.
The lane suddenly disappears
such as at the intersection. The distance from the vehicle
ahead is very short or the vehicle
ahead drives hiding the lane line.
You drive on a steep grade or a
sharp curve.
The vehicle vibrates heavily.
The temperature near inside mirror
is very high due to direct sun light.
The lens or windshield is covered
by strange materials.
The sensor cannot detect the lane
because of fog, heavy rain or snow.
The windshield is fogged by humid
air in the vehicle.
Putting something on the crash
pad.
