High Beam Assist (HBA) (if equipped)
The High Beam Assist (HBA) is a
system that automatically adjusts the
headlamp range (switches between
high beam and low beam) depending
on the brightness of detected vehi-
cles and certain road conditions.
Operating condition
1. Place the headlamp switch in the
AUTO position.
2. Turn on the high beam by pushing the lever away from you.
The High Beam Assist (HBA) ( ) indicator will illuminate.
3. The High Beam Assist (HBA) will turn on when vehicle speed is
above 25 mph (40 km/h).
If the headlamp lever is pushedaway when the High Beam Assist
(HBA) is operating, the High
Beam Assist (HBA) will turn off
and the high beam will be on con-
tinuously.
If the headlamp le ver is pulled
towards you when the high beam
is off, the high beam will turn on
without the High Beam Assist
(HBA) canceled. When you let go
of the headlamp lever, the lever
will move to the middle and the
high beam will turn off. If the headlamp lev
er is pulled
towards you when the high beam
is on by the High Beam Assist
(HBA), the low beam will be on
and the High Beam Assist (HBA)
will turn off.
If the headlamp lever is placed to the headlamp ON position, the
High Beam Assist (HBA) will turn
off and the low beam will be on
continuously.
When the High Beam Assist (HBA) is
on, the high beam switches to low
beam if any of the following condi-
tions occur :
- When the headlamp of an on-com- ing vehicle is detected.
- When the tail lamp of a vehicle in front is detected.
- When the headlamp or tail lamp of a motorcycle or a bicycle is detect-
ed.
- When the surrounding ambient light is bright enough that high
beams are not required.
- When streetlights or other lights are detected.
- When the headlamp switch is not in the AUTO position.
- When the High Beam Assist (HBA) is off.
- When vehicle speed is below 15 mph (24 km/h).

Electronic Stability Control
(ESC)
The Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) system helps to stabilize the
vehicle during cornering maneuvers.
ESC checks where you are steering
and where the vehicle is actually
going. ESC applies braking pressure
to any one of the vehicle's brakes
and intervenes in the engine man-
agement system to assist the driver
with keeping the vehicle on the
intended path. It is not a substitute
for safe driving practices. Always
adjust your speed and driving to the
road conditions.
ESC operation
ESC ON condition
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the ESC and the ESC OFF
indicator lights illuminate for approxi-
mately three seconds. After both
lights go off, the ESC is enabled.
When operating
When the ESC is in oper-
ation, the ESC indicator
light blinks:
When you apply your brakes under conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear sounds from
the brakes, or feel a corresponding
sensation in the brake pedal. This
is normal and it means your ESC is
active.
When the ESC activates, the engine may not respond to the
accelerator as it does under rou-
tine conditions.
If the Smart Cruise Control was in use when the ESC activates, the
Smart Cruise Control automatically
disengages. The Smart Cruise
Control can be reengaged when
the road conditions allow. See
"Smart Cruise Control System"
later in this chapter.
When moving out of the mud or driving on a slippery road, the
engine RPM (revolutions per
minute) may not increase even if
you press the accelerator pedal
deeply. This is to maintain the sta-
bility and traction of the vehicle and
does not indicate a problem.
OHI058037
Never drive too fast for the road
conditions when cornering. The
ESC system will not prevent
accidents.
Excessive speed in turns, abrupt
maneuvers, and hydroplaning
on wet surfaces can result in
severe accidents.

Indicator lights
When the Engine Start/Stop button
is placed to the ON position, the ESC
indicator light illuminates, then goes
off if the ESC system is operating
normally.
The ESC indicator light blinks when-
ever the ESC is operating.
If ESC indicator light stays on, your
vehicle may have a malfunction with
the ESC system. When this warning
light illuminates have your vehicle
checked by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products as soon
as possible.
The ESC OFF indicator light comes
on when ESC is turned off. Driving with wheel and tire sizes
different than original-equipment
may cause the ESC system to mal-
function. Before replacing tires,
make sure all four tires and
wheels are the same as the origi-
nal size. Never drive the vehicle
with different sized wheels and
tires installed.ESC OFF usage
When Driving
The ESC OFF mode should only be
used briefly to help free the vehicle if
stuck in snow or mud, by temporarily
stopping operation of the ESC, to
maintain wheel torque.
To turn ESC off while driving, press
the ESC OFF button while driving on
a flat road surface.
To prevent damage to the trans-
mission:
Do not allow wheel(s) of one
axle to spin excessively while
the ESC, ABS, and parking brake
warning lights are displayed.
The repairs would not be cov-
ered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce engine power and do
not spin the wheel(s) excessive-
ly while these lights are dis-
played.
When operating the vehicle on a dynamometer, make sure the
ESC is turned off (ESC OFF light
illuminated).
Information
Turning the ESC off does not affect
ABS or standard brake system opera-
tion.
