Safety System
Carrying long/narrow cargo
ORS031038
Additional cargo space is provided to
accommodate long/narrow cargo (skis,
poles, etc.) not able to fit properly in the
trunk when closed.
1. Pull the armrest down.
2. Pull the cover down while pushing the
release lever down.
NOTICE

[Be careful when loading cargo
through the rear passenger seats
to prevent damage to the vehicle
interior.

[When both the armrest and the
panel, which located between the
rear seatback and the trunk for long-
item storage, are folded down, put
back the panel first, before folding
back the arm rest. If not, the panel
knobs and the armrest knobs may
interfere with each other and get
damaged.
CAUTION

[Make sure the engine is off, the
vehicle is shifted to P (Park) and the
parking brake is applied whenever
loading or unloading cargo. The
vehicle may move if the shift lever
is inadvertently moved to another
position.

[When cargo is loaded through the
rear passenger seats, ensure the
cargo is properly secured to prevent
it from moving while driving.
WARNING
Cargo should always be secured to
prevent it from being thrown about the
vehicle in a collision and causing injury
to the vehicle occupants. Do not place
objects in the rear seats, since they
cannot be properly secured and may hit
the front seat occupants in a collision.

Parking brake & Brake fluid
warning light
This warning light illuminates:
• When you set the Engine Start/Stop
button to the ON position.
-The parking brake & brake fluid
warning light illuminates for about 3
seconds and will then turn off once
the parking brake is released.
• Whenever the parking brake is
applied.
• Whenever the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
-If the warning light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
If the brake fluid level in the reservoir is
low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the engine stopped, check the
brake fluid level immediately and add
fluid as required (For more details,
refer to “Brake Fluid” section in
chapter 9). After adding brake fluid,
check all brake components for fluid
leaks. If a brake fluid leak is found, or
if the warning light remains on, or if
the brakes do not operate properly, do
not drive the vehicle. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal braking system. This means you
still have braking on two wheels even if
one of the dual systems should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal travel
and greater pedal pressure is required to
stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working.
If the brakes fail while you are driving,
shift to a lower gear for additional engine
braking and stop the vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so.
WARNING
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid warning
light
Driving the vehicle with a warning light
ON is dangerous. If the Parking Brake
& Brake Fluid warning light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid level is
low.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
