Driving your vehicle
Tire size mismatch. Check all tire
sizes.
If your vehicle is equipped with differ-
ent tires (size, type, etc.) on the front
and rear, the message will appear. To
use the AWD system, equip the vehi-
cle with the same tires on the front
and rear.
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. Never start or run the engine
while an AWD vehicle is raised
on a jack. The vehicle can slip or
roll off of a jack causing serious
injury or death to you or those
nearby.

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.Limited Slip Differential refers to a
feature equipped with a mechanism
that controls the differential functions
of the wheels in the rear differential.
The Limited Slip Differential helps
improve handling performance when
circling at high speed. Keep away from the front of the
vehicle while the vehicle is in
gear on the dynamometer. The
vehicle can jump forward and
cause serious injury or death.
WARNING

(IF EQUIPPED)
Never run wheels with one of
them lifted by the jack. It is
extremely dangerous for a vehi-
cle equipped with Limited Slip
Differential.
WARNING

Driving your vehicle
Information
• When the LSD equipped vehicle is
circling, a slight operating sound of
the LSD's inner friction plate may
be generated. This is a normal oper-
ating sound of the LSD.
If the sound gets louder, we recom-
mend that you change the oil.
• Be sure to inject oil for exclusive use
of LSD when replacing Rear
Differential (for LSD) Oil. Refer to
"Recommended lubricants and
capacities" in chapter 8.The Electronic Control Suspension
(ECS) controls the vehicle suspen-
sion automatically to maximize driv-
ing comfort by taking into account
the driving conditions such as speed,
surface of the road, cornering, stop-
ping requirements and acceleration.
System malfunction
Check Electronic Suspension
If the ECS warning message comes
on, you may have a problem with the
ECS system.
We recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.

The Launch Control system controls
the vehicle to reduce wheel spin or
slip on a hard acceleration from a
standing start.
Prerequisite for Activation
The Launch Control gets ready to be
activated, when the following prereq-
uisites are satisfied.
• The engine is warmed up.
• Malfunction warning lights related
to the engine and ESC (Electronic

the instrument cluster LCD dis-
play.
2. Turn off ESC by pressing the ESC
OFF button for more than 3 sec-
onds. The ESC OFF indicator will
illuminate on the instrument clus-
ter.
3. Shift to the D (Drive) position.4. Depress the brake pedal firmly

to depress the accelerator pedal
to keep the Launch Control sys-
tem active until desired duration.
The message "Launch Control
Active" will appear in the cluster
LCD display.
To deactivate (end) Launch
Control, release the accelerator
pedal.Constant use of Launch Control
can put enormous stress on the
vehicle resulting in premature
wear of related components.
Limited Use of Launch Control
Launch control not available due to
high transmission temperature
A warning message will pop up on
the cluster LCD display if the trans-
mission fluid temperature is above a
certain level while using Launch
Control. Also, Launch Control will be
automatically deactivated.
If this occurs, the driver should cool
down the transmission fluid tempera-
ture by driving the vehicle at a con-
stant speed over 37 mph (60 km/h).
NOTICE
OIK057073L
•The Launch Control system is
intended for use at a closed
race track and not intended
for use on public roads. It will
not compensate for driver's
who are inexperienced or lack
familiarity with the race track.
•Do not use Launch Control
during break-in period of the
vehicle.

When certain conditions are met, the
engine is automatically decoupled
from the transmission while the shift
lever is remained in D (Drive). In this
ECO Coasting mode, the engine
stays at idling speed to reduce fuel
consumption and increase coasting
distance. The engine is automatically
coupled back again when ECO
Coasting deactivation conditions are
met. Please refer to ECO Coasting
activation and deactivation condi-
tions.ECO Coasting Activation
Condition
The ECO Coasting is activated after
depressing and releasing the accel-
erator pedal when:
• The Drive Mode is set to the ECO
mode
• The driver's accelerating style is
SMART ECO in SMART mode
• ECO is selected for
Engine/Transmission in CUSTOM
mode from the infotainment sys-
tem screen

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 (if equipped with Smart
Cruise Control)
Information
• If the front radar for smart cruise
control system cannot operate nor-
mally, the inter-vehicle distance and
relative speed condition are auto-
matically ignored (if equipped with
Smart Cruise Control).
• The ECO Coasting is activated after
the warming up of the engine and
transmission, and self-diagnosis of
engine sensors are completed.
• Activation of the ECO Coasting
may temporarily be delayed accord-
ing to the driving situation even if
the above conditions are met.

Driving your vehicle
The ISG system is to help reduce the
fuel consumption by automatically
shutting down the engine, when the
vehicle is at a standstill (i.e. red stop
light, stop sign, and traffic jam).
The engine is automatically started
upon satisfying the starting condi-
tions.
The ISG system is always active,
when the engine is running.
Information
When the engine is automatically
started by the ISG system, some warn-
ing lights (i.e. ABS, ESC, ESC OFF,
EPS, and parking brake warning
light) may illuminate for a few sec-
onds due to the low battery voltage.
However, it does not indicate a mal-
function with the ISG system.
To Activate the ISG System
Prerequisite for activation
The ISG system operates in the fol-
lowing situations.
• The driver's seatbelt is fastened
• The driver's door and hood are
closed
• The brake vacuum pressure is
adequate
• The battery sensor is activated and
the battery is sufficiently charged
• Outside temperature is not too low
or too high
• The vehicle is driven over a con-
stant speed and stops
• The climate control system satis-
fies the conditions
• The vehicle is sufficiently warmed
up
• The incline is gradual
• The steering wheel is turned less
than 180 degrees and then the
vehicle stops
Information
The ISG system is not
activated, when the pre-
requisites to activate the
ISG system are unsatis-
fied. In this case, the ISG OFF but-
ton indicator illuminates, and the
auto stop indicator ( ) illuminates
in yellow on the instrument cluster.
• When the above indicator remains
illuminated on the instrument clus-
ter, we recommend that you have
the IGS system checked by an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
