Transmission ranges
The indicator in the instrument clus-
ter displays the gear position when
the Engine Start/Stop button is in the
ON position.
P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into P (Park).
To shift the gear from R (Reverse), N
(Neutral), D (Drive) or Manual mode
to P (Park), press the P button.
If you turn off the engine in D (Drive),
R (Reverse) or Manual shift mode the
shifting automatically changes to P
(Park).
When you park the vehicle, press the
P button while depressing the brake
pedal and then apply the parking
brake.
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death:
ALWAYS check the surround-
ing areas near your vehicle for
people, especially children,
before shifting a vehicle into
D (Drive) or R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver's seat, always make sure the
the vehicle is shifted to the P
(Park) position, then apply the
parking brake, and place the
Engine Start/Stop button in
the OFF position. Unexpected
and sudden vehicle move-
ment can occur if these pre-
cautions are not followed.
When using the paddle shifter (manual shift mode), do not
use engine braking (shifting
from a high gear to lower
gear) rapidly on slippery
roads. The vehicle may slip
causing an accident.
WARNING
Shifting into P (Park) while thevehicle is in motion may cause
you to lose control of the vehi-
cle.
After the vehicle has stopped, always make sure the vehicle
is in P (Park), apply the parking
brake, and turn the engine off.
When parking on an incline, shift the gear to P (Park) and
apply the parking brake to pre-
vent the vehicle from rolling
downhill.

Driving your vehicle
R (Reverse)
Use this position to drive the vehicle
rearward.
To move the shift lever to R
(Reverse), press the UNLOCK but-
ton while depressing the brake pedal
and then move the shift lever for-
ward.
N (Neutral)
The wheels and transmission are not
engaged.
Use N (Neutral) if you need to restart
a stalled engine.
Shift into P (Park) if you need to
leave your vehicle for any reason.
Always depress the brake pedal
when you are shifting from N
(Neutral) to another gear.
In N (Neutral), if the driver attempts
to turn off the engine, the transmis-
sion remains in the N (Neutral) posi-
tion and the Engine Start/Stop button
will be in the ACC position.
To turn off the engine from the ACC
position, press the Engine Start/Stop
button to the ON position, press the
P button, and then press the Engine
Start/Stop button to the OFF posi-
tion.
When either the driver's door or the
front passenger's door is opened
with the Engine Start/Stop button in
the ACC position and the shift lever
in N (Neutral) position, the engine is
automatically turned OFF and the
transmission automatically changes
to the P (Park) position.

D (Drive)
This is the normal driving position.
The transmission will automatically
shift through an 8-gear sequence,
providing the best fuel economy and
power.
For extra power when passing anoth-
er vehicle or driving uphill, depress
the accelerator pedal further until
you feel the transmission downshift
to a lower gear. To shift into D (Drive), depress the
brake pedal and press the UNLOCK
button on the shift lever. Move the
shift lever rearward.
To shift into D (Drive) from N
(Neutral), you must depress the brake
pedal.
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into D (Drive).
NOTICE
Do not drive with the shift lever
in N (Neutral). If the shift lever is
moved to N (Neutral) while driv-
ing, the vehicle loses the ability
to provide engine braking.
Doing so may increase the risk
of an accident.
Also, moving the shift lever
back to D (Drive) while the vehi-
cle is moving may severely
damage the transmission.

Information - Kickdown
Mechanism
Use the kickdown mechanism for
maximum acceleration. Depress the
accelerator pedal beyond the pressure
point. The automatic transmission will
shift to a lower gear depending on the
engine speed. i
5-20
Driving your vehicle
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS wear your seat belt. In a collision, an unbelted
occupant is significantly more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly belt-
ed occupant.
Avoid high speeds when cor- nering or turning.
Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,
sharp turns.
The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control
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.
Genesis Branded Vehicle rec- ommends you follow all post-
ed speed limits.

Driving your vehicle
ECO mode
When ECO mode isselected by pressing the
DRIVE MODE button, the
ECO indicator will illumi-
nate on the instrument
cluster.
If the vehicle is set to ECO mode, when the engine is turned OFF
and restarted the drive mode set-
ting will remain in ECO mode.
Information
Fuel efficiency depends on the driver's
driving habit and road condition.
When ECO mode is activated:
The acceleration response may beslightly reduced if the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
The air conditioner performance may be limited.
The shift pattern of the automatic transmission may change.
The engine noise may be louder at some automatic transmission
shifts as down-shift requires press-
ing down more on the accelerator.
The above situations are normal
conditions when ECO mode is acti-
vated to help improve fuel efficiency.
Limitation of ECO mode operation:
If the following conditions occur while
ECO mode is operating, the system
operation is limited even though
there is no change in the ECO indi-
cator.
When the coolant temperature is low:
The system will be limited until
engine performance becomes nor-
mal.
When driving up a hill: The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because
engine torque is restricted.
When driving the vehicle in manual shift mode using the paddle shifter.
The system will be limited accord-
ing to the shift location.
CUSTOM mode
When CUSTOM mode isselected by pressing the
DRIVE MODE button, the
CUSTOM mode indicator
will illuminate on the
instrument cluster.
In CUSTOM mode, the driver can select separate modes and combine
them in the AVN system screen.
- Engine/Transmission: ECO/COMFORT/SPORT/SMART
- Steering wheel: COMFORT/ SPORT
- Suspension: COMFORT/SPORT
- AWD system: ECO/COMFORT/ SPORT

QR code in a separately supplied
simple manual.

When certain conditions are met, the
engine is automatically decoupled
from the transmission while the shift
lever is remained in D (Drive). In this
Coasting mode, the engine stays at
idling speed to reduce fuel consump-
tion and increase coasting distance.
Coasting Setting
The Coasting function must be
turned ON from the Settings menu in
the AVN system screen. Select:
- Setup →Vehicle Settings → Drive
Mode →Coasting
For detailed information, scan the
QR code in a separately supplied
simple manual.
When Coasting is turned ON and the
conditions are met, the function
operates with a "Coasting" message
illuminated at the top center of the
instrument cluster.
If the accelerator pedal is pressed quickly for accelerating
with the Coasting function in
operation, acceleration may
occur after the engagement of
the clutch inside the transmis-
sion. In turn, the driver may con-
tinue to feel acceleration even
after the system is turned off.
Driving with the Coasting func- tion off may be required in some
cases since the engine brake is
not applied while the Coasting
function is in operation.
Operating the AVN system screen to activate or deactivate
the Coasting function while driv-
ing may be dangerous as the dri-
ver's attention is dispersed.
Coasting Operating
Conditions
The Coasting function will operate
when the accelerator pedal is
depressed and released under the
following conditions.
The driving mode is ECO mode.
SMART is selected for Engine/Transmission in CUSTOM mode
from the AVN system screen and
driver acceleration is SMART ECO
ECO is selected for Engine/ Transmission in CUSTOM mode
from the AVN system screen
The shift lever is in D (Drive)
The Smart Cruise Control button is OFF
The accelerator or brake pedal is not depressed
The vehicle's speed is within 35–100 mph (55–160 km/h) range
The road gradient is within -5~+5% range
In SMART mode, if the distance between the vehicle ahead and the
relative speed is within a certain
range
Information
• If the front radar for smart cruisecontrol system cannot operate nor-
mally, the inter-vehicle distance and
relative speed condition are auto-
matically ignored.
• The Coasting function works after the engine is turned on, the trans-
mission is warmed up, and the
engine sensor self-diagnosis is com-
pleted after starting.
• Depending on the driving situation, Coasting operation may be tem-
porarily delayed even if the above
conditions are met.
