*1 : Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2 : To maintain the best braking performance and ABS/ESC performance, we recommend
that you use fluid that conform to specifications.
*3 : If the front/rear differential is submerged, visit an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products to replace the differential oil.
*4 : Requires grade engine oil. If a lower grade
engine oil (mineral oil including Semi-synthetic) is used, then the engine oil and engine
oil filter must be replaced as indicated severe maintenance condition.

Driving Your Vehicle
Limitation of SMART mode
SMART may be limited in following
situations. ECO, COMFORT, SPORT mode
features

[The driver is using the paddle shifter
to manually shift gear. (The system
prioritizes the driver’s manual shifting)

[Smart Cruise Control is activated.

[The transmission oil temperature is
either extremely low or extremely
high.
Information

[When you mildly drive the vehicle
in SMART mode, the driving mode
changes to ECO mode to improve fuel
efficiency. However, the actual fuel
efficiency may differ depending on your
driving situations such as slope angle,
and vehicle speed.

[When you dynamically drive the
vehicle in SMART mode by abruptly
decelerating or sharply curving, the
driving mode changes to SPORT mode.
However, it may adversely affect fuel
economy.
CHAUFFEUR mode
CHAUFFEUR mode controls the
suspension, engine, transmission, and
steering wheel to provide comfort driving
experience to rear seat passengers.
MY DRIVE MODE
MY DRIVE mode will allow the driver to
personalize the setting of the powertrain,
steering wheel, suspension, and AWD.

Use only the specified automatic transmission fluid. (Refer to “Recommended lubricants and capacities” section in chapter 2 or
the label in the engine compartment.)
*2 :
Front/rear differential oil should be changed anytime, front/rear differential have been submerged in water. ÃFuel filter is considered to be maintenance free but the quality of fuel used may impact the frequency of maintenance
needed. If there are some important safety matters like fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of power, hard starting
problem, etc. replace the fuel filter immediately regardless of maintenance schedule and consult an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products for details.

WARNING
The temperature grade for this tire is
established for a tire that is properly
inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, under-inflation,
over-inflation, or excessive loading,
either separately or in combination,
can cause heat build-up and
possible sudden tire failure. This
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.
Tire Terminology and Definitions
Air pressure
The amount of air inside the tire
pressing outward on the tire. Air
pressure is expressed in pounds per
square inch (psi) or kilopascal (kPa).
Accessory weight
This means the combined weight
of optional accessories. Some
examples of optional accessories
are automatic transmission, power
seats, and air conditioning.
Aspect ratio
The relationship of a tire’s height to
its width.
Belt
A rubber coated layer of cords that
is located between the plies and the
tread. Cords may be made from steel
or other reinforcing materials.
Bead
The tire bead contains steel wires
wrapped by steel cords that hold the
tire onto the rim.
Bias ply tire
A pneumatic tire in which the plies are
laid at alternate angles less than 90
degrees to the centerline of the tread.
Cold tire pressure
The amount of air pressure in a tire,
measured in pounds per square inch
(psi) or kilopascals (kPa) before a tire
has built up heat from driving.
Curb weight
This means the weight of a motor
vehicle with standard and optional
equipment including the maximum
capacity of fuel, oil and coolant, but
without passengers and cargo.
DOT markings
A code molded into the sidewall
of a tire signifying that the tire
is in compliance with the U.S.
Department of Transportation motor
vehicle safety standards. The DOT
code includes the Tire Identification
Number (TIN), an alphanumeric
designator which can also identify
the tire manufacturer, production
plant, brand and date of production.
