*1The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller adult sits in the front
passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as a child depending on his/her physique
and posture.
*
2Do not allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. When a larger child who has out- grown a child restraint system sits in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize
him/her as an adult depending upon his/her physique or sitting position.
*
3Never install a child restraint system on the front passenger seat.
*4The PASSENGER AIR BAG "OFF" indicator may turn on or off when a child above 12 months
to 12 years old (with or without child restraint system) sits in the front passenger seat. This is
a normal condition.
You will find the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator on the center facia
panel. This system detects the conditions 1-4 in the following table and acti-
vates or deactivates the front passenger air bag based on these conditions.
When the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator illuminates with an
adult occupied on the front passenger's seat, the air bag may not
deploy in an accident. On the other hand, when the PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF indicator does not illuminate with a child restraint system
installed on the front passenger's seat, the air bag may deploy in an
accident. In those cases, you should immediately move the occupant
or the child restraint system to a rear seat. In addition, have the sys-
tem inspected by an authorized Dealer of Genesis Brand Products.
WARNING
When the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator does not illuminate
with a child restraint system installed on the front passenger's seat,
you should immediately move the child restraint system to a rear
seat. It implies that the air bag for the front passenger's seat may
deploy in an accident.

Safety system of your vehicle
Do Not Install a Child Restraintin the Front Passenger's Seat
Even though your vehicle is
equipped with the OCS, never install
a child restraint in the front passen-
ger’s seat. An inflating air bag can
forcefully strike a child or child
restraint resulting in serious or fatal
injury.
Why Didn't My Air Bag Go Off
in a Collision?
Air bags are not designed to inflate in
every collision. There are certain
types of accidents in which the air
bag would not be expected to pro-
vide additional protection. These
include rear impacts, second or third
collisions in multiple impact acci-
dents, as well as low speed impacts.
Damage to the vehicle indicates a
collision energy absorption, and is
not an indicator of whether or not an
air bag should have inflated.
NEVER place a rear-facing or front-facing child restraint in
the front passenger’s seat of
the vehicle.
An inflating frontal air bag could forcefully strike a child
resulting in serious injury or
death.
Always properly restrain chil- dren in an appropriate child
restraint in the rear seat of the
vehicle.

Child-Protector Rear Door locks
The child safety lock is provided to
help prevent children seated in the

rear doors. The rear door safety locks
should be used whenever children
are in the vehicle.
The child safety lock is located on
the edge of each rear door. When the
child safety lock is in the lock (1)
position, the rear door will not open if
the inner door handle (2) is pulled.
To lock the child safety lock, insert a
screwdriver (1) into the hole and turn
(1) to the lock position.
To allow a rear door to be opened
from inside the vehicle, unlock the
child safety lock.
OHI046015
If children accidently open the
rear doors while the vehicle is
in motion, they could fall out of
the vehicle. The rear door safety
locks should always be used
whenever children are in the
vehicle.

To reduce risk of serious injury
or death, NEVER allow children
or any person who is unfamiliar
with the vehicle to touch the
Engine Start/Stop button or
related parts. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement can
occur.
WARNING
To turn the engine off in an
emergency:
Press and hold the Engine
Start/Stop button for more than
two seconds OR rapidly press
and release the Engine Start/
Stop button three times (within
three seconds).
If the vehicle is still moving, you
can restart the engine without
depressing the brake pedal by
pressing the Engine Start/Stop
button with the shift lever in the
N (Neutral) position.
WARNING
NEVER press the EngineStart/Stop button while the
vehicle is in motion except in
an emergency. This will result
in the engine turning off and
loss of power assist for the
steering and brake systems.
This may lead to loss of direc-
tional control and braking
function, which could cause
an accident.
Before leaving the driver's seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (Park)
position, set the parking
brake, press the Engine Start/
Stop button to the OFF posi-
tion, and take the Smart Key
with you. Unexpected vehicle
movement may occur if these
precautions are not followed.

idly on slippery roads. The
vehicle may slip causing an
accident.

cause you to lose control of

Driving your vehicleWe do not recommend using this
vehicle for trailer towing.
If you carry items inside your
vehicle (e.g., suitcases, tools,
packages, or anything else),
they are moving as fast as the
vehicle. If you have to stop or
turn quickly, or if there is a
crash, the items will keep going
and can cause an injury if they
strike the driver or a passenger.
Put items in the cargo area of your vehicle. Try to spread the
weight evenly.
Do not stack items, like suit- cases, inside the vehicle
above the tops of the seats.
Do not leave an unsecured child restraint in your vehicle.
When you carry something inside the vehicle, secure it.
