chapter 6 GENESIS G90 2021 Owner's Guide

Driving in sand or mud
• Maintain slow and constant speed.
• Keep sufficient distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle in front
of you.
• Reduce vehicle speed and always
check the road condition.
• Avoid speeding, rapid acceleration,
sudden brake applications, and
sharp turns to prevent getting
stuck.
When the vehicle is stuck in snow,
sand or mud, avoid running the
engine continuously at high rpm,
doing so may damage the tires,
transmission, differential or AWD
system.
Information
• When using Snow Tires, mount
them on all four wheels.
• When using AutoSock
®(fabric snow
chain), install them on the rear tires.
For more information on Snow Tires
and Tire Chains, refer to "Winter
Driving" in this chapter.
Driving up or down hills
• Driving uphill
- Before starting off, check if it is
possible to drive uphill.
- Drive as straight as possible.
• Driving downhill
- Do not change gear while driving
downhill. Select gear before driv-
ing downhill.
- Drive slowly and select Manual
Shift Mode to provide engine
braking while driving downhill.
- Drive straight as possible.

Exercise extreme caution driv-
ing up or down steep hills. The
vehicle may flip depending on
the grade, terrain and water/
mud conditions.
WARNING

Towing
AWD vehicles must be towed with all
wheels off the ground, either on a
flatbed tow truck or using doilies.
For more details, refer to "Towing"
in chapter 6.
Vehicle inspection
• If the vehicle needs to be operated
on a vehicle lift do not attempt to
stop any of the four wheels for turn-
ing. This could damage the sys-
tem.
• Never engage the parking brake
while running the engine on a car
lift. This may damage the AWD
system.
Dynamometer testing
An AWD vehicle must be tested on a
special four wheel chassis dynamome-
ter.
An AWD vehicle should not be tested
on a 2WD roll tester. If a 2WD roll
tester must be used, perform the fol-
lowing procedure:
1. Check the tire pressures recom-
mended for your vehicle.
2. Place the rear wheels on the roll
tester for a speedometer test as
shown in the illustration.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Place the front wheels on the tem-
porary free roller as shown in the
illustration.

Driving your vehicle
The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist-Lane-Change Oncoming
function detects the oncoming vehi-
cle with a front view camera at the
front windshield. And it assists the
driver’s steering to help avoid colli-
sion with an oncoming vehicle and
keep the vehicle within the lanes,
when the vehicle drives over the cen-
treline.
System Setting and Operation
System setting
The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist–Lane-Change Oncoming

FORWARD COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST - LANE-CHANGE
ONCOMING FUNCTION
• This function is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it replace
the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver. The
sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are
limited. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
• Always drive cautiously to
prevent accidents from any
unexpected or sudden situa-
tions. The function does not
steer the vehicle completely
and is not a collision avoid-
ance system.

Driving Convenience systems can-
celed
If the driver still does not have their
hands on the steering wheel after the
message "Keep hands on steering
wheel", the LFA system will be can-
celed. However, if the Smart Cruise
Control is reactivated manually by
the driver, the Lane Following Assist
System will reactivate.
To activate Smart Cruise control,
refer to "Smart Cruise Control
with Stop and Go" in chapter 5.
Information
• Even though the steering is assisted
by the system, the driver may con-
trol the steering wheel.
• The steering wheel may feel heavier
when the steering wheel is assisted
by the system than when it is not.
Check Lane Following Assist (LFA)
system
If there is a problem with the system
a message will appear for a few sec-
onds. If the problem continues, we
recommend that you have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized retail-
er of Genesis Branded products.

Information
If the indicator (white) is activated
from the previous ignition cycle, the
system will turn ON without any addi-
tional control. If you press the LKA
switch again, the indicator on the clus-
ter goes off.
LKA system operation
• To see the LKA system screen on
the LCD display in the cluster,
select Assist mode ( ). For more
details, refer to "LCD Display
Modes" in chapter 3.
• If vehicle speed is over 40 mph (64
km/h) and the system detects lane
markers, the color changes from
gray to white.• If your vehicle departs from the
projected lane in front of you, the
LKA system operates as follows:
1. A visual warning appears on the
cluster LCD display. Either the left
lane marker or the right lane
marker in the cluster LCD display
will blink depending on which
direction the vehicle is veering.
Also, the steering wheel will
vibrate along with a warning
sound.
2. The LKA system will will help con-
trol the vehicle's steering to pre-
vent the vehicle from crossing the
lane maker in below conditions.
- Vehicle speed is over 40 mph (64
km/h)
- When driving, the vehicle is
located between both lanes nor-
mally.
- The steering wheel is not turned
suddenly.
When lane markers are detected and
all the conditions to activate the LKA
system are satisfied, a LKA system
indicator light ( ) will change
from white to green. This indicates
that the LKA system is in the
ENABLED state and the steering
wheel will be controlled.

If the driver takes their hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds
while the HDA system is activated,
the system will warn the driver.
Information
If the steering wheel is held with a
light grip, the message may appear
because the HDA system may not rec-
ognize that the driver has their hands
on the steering wheel.
