Engine Start/Stop
button with shift
lever in P (Park).
Also, the engine
will turn off when
the Engine Start/
Stop button is
pressed with the shift lever in D
(Drive) or R (Reverse) because the
transmission automatically shifts to
the P (Park) position. But, when it is
pressed in N (Neutral), the Engine
Start/Stop button will go to the ACC
position.
Press the Engine
Start/Stop button
when the button is
in the OFF position
without depressing
the brake pedal.
Some electrical
accessories are
usable.

ton in the ACC position for more than
one hour, the battery power will turn
off automatically to prevent the bat-
tery from discharging.Press the Engine
Start/Stop button
while it is in the
ACC position with-
out depressing the
brake pedal.
The warning lights can be checked
before the engine is
started.
Information
Do not leave the Engine Start/Stop
button in the ON position when the
engine is not running to prevent the
battery from discharging.
To start the engine,
depress the brake
pedal and press the
Engine Start/Stop

Using All Wheel Drive (AWD)
The All Wheel Drive (AWD) System
delivers engine power to the front
and rear wheels for maximum trac-
tion. AWD is useful when extra trac-
tion is required, such as when driving
on slippery, muddy, wet, or snow-
covered roads.
If the system determines there is a
need for addition traction, engine
power will automatically be distrib-
uted to all four wheels.
Information
• Do not drive in water if the level ishigher than the bottom of the vehi-
cle.
• Check your brake condition once you are out of mud or water.
Depress the brake pedal several
times as you move slowly until you
feel normal braking return.
• Shorten your scheduled mainte- nance interval if you drive in off-
road conditions such as sand, mud
or water (see "Maintenance Under
Severe Usage Conditions" in chap-
ter 7).
• Make sure that an AWD vehicle is towed by flatbed tow truck.

If the AWD warning light ( )
stays on the instrument cluster,
your vehicle may have a mal-
function with the AWD system.
When the AWD warning light
( ) illuminates have your
vehicle checked by an author-
ized Dealer of Genesis Brand
Products as soon as possible.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
Do not drive in conditions that
exceed the vehicles intended
design such as challenging
off-road conditions.
Avoid high speeds when cor- nering or turning.
Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,
sharp turns.
(Continued)
(Continued)
The risk of a rollover is great-ly increased if you lose con-
trol of your vehicle at highway
speeds.
Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off
the roadway and the driver
over steers to reenter the
roadway.
In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not
steer sharply. Instead, slow
down before pulling back into
the travel lanes.
Always drive safely and use caution when driving an AWD
vehicle.
WARNING

Power Brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted
brakes that adjust automatically
through normal usage.
If the engine is not running or is
turned off while driving, the power
assist for the brakes will not work.
You can still stop your vehicle by
applying greater force to the brake
pedal than typical. The stopping dis-
tance, however, will be longer than
with power brakes.
When the engine is not running, the
reserve brake power is partially
depleted each time the brake pedal
is applied. Do not pump the brake
pedal when the power assist has
been interrupted.
Pump the brake pedal only when
necessary to maintain steering con-
trol on slippery surfaces.

Take the following precautions:
Do not drive with your foot
resting on the brake pedal.
This will create abnormal high
brake temperatures, exces-
sive brake lining and pad
wear, and increased stopping
distances.
When descending down a long or steep hill, move the
gear shift lever to Manual
Shift Mode and manually
downshift to a lower gear in
order to control your speed
without using the brake pedal
excessively. Applying the
brakes continuously will
cause the brakes to overheat
and could result in a tempo-
rary loss of braking perform-
ance.
Wet brakes may impair the vehicle's ability to safely slow
down; the vehicle may also
pull to one side when the
brakes are applied. Applying
the brakes lightly will indicate
whether they have been
affected in this way. Always
test your brakes in this fash-
ion after driving through deep
water. To dry the brakes, light-
ly tap the brake pedal to heat
up the brakes while maintain-
ing a safe forward speed until
brake performance returns to
normal. Avoid driving at high
speeds until the brakes func-
tion correctly.
WARNING

Driving your vehicle
Disc Brakes Wear Indicator
When your brake pads are worn and
new pads are required, you will hear
a high pitched warning sound from
your front or rear brakes. You may
hear this sound come and go or it
may occur whenever you depress
the brake pedal.
Note that some driving conditions or
climates may cause a brake squeal
when you first apply (or lightly apply)
the brakes. This is normal and does
not indicate a problem with your
brakes.
To avoid costly brake repairs, do
not continue to drive with worn
brake pads.
Information
Always replace brake pads as com-
plete front or rear axle sets.
Electronic Parking Brake
(EPB)
Applying the parking brake
To apply the EPB (Electronic
Parking Brake):
1. Depress the brake pedal.
2. Pull the EPB switch upwards.
Make sure the Parking Brake
Warning Light comes on.
With the AUTO HOLD feature
enabled, the EPB is automatically
applied when the engine is shut
off.
However, if the EPB switch is
pressed within 1 second of engine
shut off, the EPB will not be
applied.
NOTICE
i
NOTICEOHI056032
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH, do not oper-
ate the EPB while the vehicle is
moving except in an emergency
situation. It could damage the
brake system and lead to an
accident.

To release the EPB (Electronic
Parking Brake), press the EPB
switch in the following condition:
Place the Engine Start/Stop buttonin the ON position.
Depress the brake pedal.
Make sure the Parking Brake
Warning Light goes off.
EPB is released automatically dur-
ing the following scenarios:
Shift lever in P (Park) With the engine running depress
the brake pedal and shift out of P
(Park) to R (Reverse), N (Neutral)
or D (Drive).
Shift lever in N (Neutral) With the engine running depress
the brake pedal and shift out of N
(Neutral) to R (Reverse) or D
(Drive).
Under the following conditions 1. Start the engine.
2. Fasten the driver's seat belt.
3. Close the driver's door, engine hood and trunk.
4. Depress the accelerator pedal while the shift lever is in D
(Drive) or R (Reverse). The Parking Brake Warning Light
should be turned off when the EPB is
released.
Information
• For your safety, you can engage the
EPB even though the Engine Stop/
Start button is in the OFF position
(only if battery power is available),
but you cannot release it.
• For your safety, depress the brake pedal and release the parking brake
manually with the EPB switch when
you drive downhill or when backing
up the vehicle.
If the parking brake warning light is still on even though the
EPB has been released, have
your vehicle checked by an
authorized Dealer of Genesis
Brand Products.
Do not drive your vehicle with the EPB applied. It may cause
excessive brake pad and brake
rotor wear.
When the EPB (Electronic Parking
Brake) does not release:
Contact an authorized Dealer of
Genesis Brand Products by loading
the vehicle on a flatbed tow truck and
have the system checked.
