The indicator may differ from the illustration as objects or sensorsstatus. If the indicator blinks, we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded products.
If the audible warning does not sound or if the buzzer sounds inter- mittently when shifting into R (Reverse) position, this may indicate a
malfunction with the Parking Assist System. If this occurs, we recom-
mend that you have your vehicle checked by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products as soon as possible.

Non-operational conditions ofparking assist system
Parking assist system may not
operate normally when:
Moisture is frozen to the sensor.
Sensor is covered with foreign mat-
ter, such as snow or water, or the
sensor cover is blocked.
There is a possibility of parking
assist system malfunction when:
Driving on uneven road surfacessuch as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
Objects generating excessive noise such as vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes
can interfere with the sensor.
Heavy rain or water spray is present.
Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are present near the sensor.
The sensor is covered with snow.
Any non-factory equipment or accessories have been installed, or
if the vehicle bumper height or sen-
sor installation has been modified.
Detecting range may decrease when:
Outside air temperature is extremelyhot or cold.
Undetectable objects smaller than 40 inches (1 m) and narrower than
6 inches (14 cm) in diameter.
The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
Sharp or slim objects such asropes, chains or small poles.
Objects, which tend to absorb sen- sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.
Parking assist system precau-tions
The parking assist system may not
operate consistently in some cir-
cumstances depending on the
speed of the vehicle and the
shapes of the objects detected.
The parking assist system may mal- function if the vehicle bumper height
or sensor installation has been
modified or damaged. Any non-fac-
tory installed equipment or acces-
sories may also interfere with the
sensor performance.
The sensor may not recognize objects less than 15 in (40 cm)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
When the sensor is blocked with snow, dirt, debris, or ice, the park-
ing assist system may be inopera-
tive until the snow or ice melts, or
the debris is removed. Use a soft
cloth to wipe debris away from the
sensor.
Do not push, scratch or strike the sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could occur.
Do not spray the sensors or its sur- rounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Doing so may
cause the sensors to fail to operate
normally.
Your new vehicle warranty does
not cover any accidents or dam-
age to the vehicle or injuries to
its occupants related to a
Parking Assist System. Always
drive safely and cautiously.

Rear outlet vents (F)
The rear outlet vents are controlled by the rear climate control system.
However, external conditions and manual settings also have influences on the
actual operation of the rear outlet vents by blocking air flows or changing air
flow volumes.
The rear outlet vents may blow slightly cooler air when the heater is operat-
ing due to some heat loss through the air ducts from the front of the vehicle.
To prevent this, the rear outlet vents may not blow any air immediately after a
cold start when the outside temperature is detected to be extremely low in
winter and the engine has not sufficiently warmed up.
Side outlet vents (D)
G90 is equipped with temperature sensors inside the side outlet vents to
accurately measure and control air temperature both in the driver’s seat and
the front passenger’s seat. However, when the side outlet vents are closed,
the temperature sensor will measure air temperature only inside the side out-
let vents. For accurate temperature control, open the side outlet vents.

Front mode selection button
The mode selection button controls
the direction of the air flow through
the ventilation system.
The air flow outlet port is converted
as follows:

ant air quality inside the passenger
compartment.
Bi-Level (B, C, D, E, F, G)
Air flow is directed towards the face
and the floor.
