Recommended coolant
• When adding coolant, use only 
deionized water, distilled water or soft 
water for your vehicle and never mix 
hard water in the coolant filled at the 
factory.
• An incorrect coolant mixture can 
result in severe malfunction or engine 
damage.
• The engine in your vehicle has 
aluminum engine parts and must be 
protected by an phosphate-based 
ethylene glycol coolant to prevent 
corrosion and freezing.
• Do not use alcohol or methanol 
coolant or mix them with the specified 
coolant.
• Do not use a solution that contains 
more than 60% antifreeze or less than 
35% antifreeze, which would reduce 
the effectiveness of the solution.
For mixing percentage, refer to the 
following table:
Ambient 
Temperature Mixture Percentage 
(volume)
Antifreeze Water
5°F (-15°C) 3565
-13°F (-25°C) 4060
-31°F (-35°C) 5050
-49°F (-45°C) 6040
 Information
If in doubt about the mix ratio, a 50% 
water and 50% antifreeze mix is the 
easiest to mix together as it will be the 
same quantity of each. It is suitable to 
use for most temperature ranges of -31°F 
(-35°C) and higher.
Changing Coolant
Have coolant changed by an authorized 
retailer of Genesis Branded products 
according to the Maintenance Schedule 
at the beginning of this chapter.
 WARNING
Do not use engine coolant or antifreeze 
in the washer fluid reservoir.
Engine coolant can severely obscure 
visibility when sprayed on the 
windshield and may cause loss of 
vehicle control resulting in an accident.
Engine coolant may also cause damage 
to paint and body trim.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to engine parts, put 
a thick towel around the engine coolant 
cap and/or inverter coolant cap before 
refilling the coolant to prevent the 
coolant from overflowing into engine 
parts, such as the alternator.

Tire Rotation
To equalize tread wear, Genesis 
Branded Vehicle recommends that 
the tires be rotated according to the 
maintenance schedule or sooner if 
irregular wear develops.
During rotation, check the tires for 
correct balance.
When rotating tires, check for 
uneven wear and damage. Abnormal 
wear is usually caused by incorrect 
tire pressure, improper wheel 
alignment, out-of-balance wheels, 
severe braking or severe cornering. 
Look for bumps or bulges in the 
tread or side of the tire. Replace 
the tire if you find any of these 
conditions. Replace the tire if fabric 
or cord is visible. After rotation, be 
sure to bring the front and rear tire 
pressures to specification and check 
wheel bolt tightness (proper torque 
is 101~116 lbf.ft [14~16 kgf.m]).
OHI078078OHI078078
Disc brake pads should be inspected 
for wear whenever tires are rotated.
 Information
The outside and inside of the 
unsymmetrical tire is distinguishable. 
When installing an unsymmetrical 
tire, be sure to install the side marked 
“outside” face the outside. If the side 
marked “inside” is installed on the 
outside, it will have a negative effect 
on vehicle performance.
 WARNING
• Do not use the compact spare 
tire for tire rotation.
• Do not mix bias ply and radial ply 
tires under any circumstances. 
This may cause unusual handling 
characteristics that may cause 
loss of vehicle control resulting in 
an accident.

The emission control system of your 
vehicle is covered by a written limited 
warranty. Please see the warranty 
information contained in the Owner’s 
Handbook & Warranty Information 
booklet in your vehicle.
Your vehicle is equipped with an 
emission control system to meet all 
applicable emission regulations. There 
are three emission control systems, as 
follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control system
(2) Evaporative emission control system
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to ensure the proper function 
of the emission control systems, it 
is recommended that you have your 
vehicle inspected and maintained by an 
authorized retailer of Genesis Branded 
products in accordance with the 
maintenance schedule in this manual.
NOTICE
For the Inspection and Maintenance 
Test (with Electronic Stability Control 
(ESC) system)
• To prevent the vehicle from misfiring 
during dynamometer testing, turn 
the Electronic Stability Control 
(ESC) system off by pressing the ESC 
switch (ESC OFF light illuminated).
• After dynamometer testing is 
completed, turn the ESC system back 
on by pressing the ESC switch again.
1. Crankcase Emission Control 
System
The positive crankcase ventilation system 
is employed to prevent air pollution 
caused by blow-by gases being emitted 
from the crankcase. This system supplies 
fresh filtered air to the crankcase through 
the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase, 
the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, 
which then pass through the PCV valve 
into the induction system.
2. Evaporative Emission Control 
System including Onboard 
Refueling Vapor Recovery 
(ORVR)
The Evaporative Emission Control System 
is designed to prevent fuel vapors from 
escaping into the atmosphere. The 
ORVR system is designed to allow the 
vapors from the fuel tank to be loaded 
into a canister while refueling at the gas 
station, preventing the escape of fuel 
vapors into the atmosphere.
Canister
Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel 
tank are absorbed and stored in the 
onboard canister. When the engine is 
running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the 
canister are drawn into the surge tank 
through the purge control solenoid valve.
Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve 
is controlled by the Engine Control 
Module (ECM); when the engine coolant 
temperature is low during idling, the 
PCSV closes so that evaporated fuel 
is not taken into the engine. After the 
engine warms-up during ordinary 
driving, the PCSV opens to introduce 
evaporated fuel to the engine.
