*1 : Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2 : To maintain the best braking performance and ABS/ESC performance, we recommend
that you use fluid that conform to specifications.
*3 : If the front/rear differential is submerged, visit an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products to replace the differential oil.
*4 : If the above recommended specification oil is not available, SAE 0W-30 grade synthetic
oil can be used. If mineral oil or semi-synthetic oil is used, it is a severe maintenance
condition in terms of engine oil change

Emergency Precautions
Tires
When replacing tires, be sure to equip
all four tires with the same size, type,
tread pattern, brand and load-carrying
capacity.
WARNING
Do not use tire and wheel with different
size and type from the one originally
installed on your vehicle. It can affect
the safety and performance of your
vehicle, which could lead to steering
failure or rollover causing serious injury.
In an emergency situation, a compact
spare tire may be used. But, do not use
the compact spare tire continuously.
Repair or replace the original tire as
soon as possible to avoid failure of the
differential or AWD system.
WARNING
ORG3060019
Never start or run the engine while a
vehicle is raised on a jack. The vehicle
can slip or roll off of a jack causing
serious injury or death to you or those
nearby.
Towing
AWD vehicles must be towed with
a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed
equipment with all the wheels off the
ground. For more details, refer to
"Towing" section in chapter 8.
Vehicle inspection
• If the vehicle needs to be operated on
a vehicle lift do not attempt to stop
any of the four wheels from turning.
This could damage the AWD system.
• Never engage the parking brake while
running the engine on a car lift. This
may damage the AWD system.

*1 : Use only the specified automatic transmission fluid. (Refer to “Recommended lubricants and capacities” section in chapter 2 or
the label in the engine compartment.)
*2 : Front/rear differential oil should be changed anytime, front/rear differential have been submerged in water. Ã Fuel filter is considered to be maintenance free but the quality of fuel used may impact the frequency of maintenance
needed. If there are some important safety matters like fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of power, hard starting
problem, etc. replace the fuel filter immediately regardless of maintenance schedule and consult an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products for details.
