[Always apply the parking brake when
leaving the vehicle. Do not depend on
placing the transmission in P (Park) to
keep the vehicle from moving.

[Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident

[Optimum vehicle performance
and fuel economy is obtained by
smoothly depressing and releasing
the accelerator. WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:

[ALWAYS wear your seat belt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant
is significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.

[Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.

[Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.

[The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.

[Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver over steers to reenter
the roadway.

[In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.

[Genesis Branded Vehicle
recommends you to follow all posted
speed limits.
NOTICE
Kickdown mechanism
Use the kickdown mechanism for
maximum acceleration. Depress the
accelerator pedal beyond the pressure
point. The automatic transmission will
shift to a lower gear depending on the
engine speed.

Coasting Release Conditions
The Coasting function will be
automatically released when the
following conditions are met.

[COMFORT, SPORT, SPORT+ is
selected for driving mode

[The driver uses the paddle shifter

[Smart Cruise Control is activated (Set
speed appears on the cluster)

[The vehicle’s speed exceeds 30~100
mph (50~160 km/h) range

[The road gradient is under -5% or over

frequently stop-and-go condition. Change
the drive mode to COMFORT, SPORT,
SPORT+ or deselect Coasting from the
infotainment system screen.
NOTICE

[If the accelerator pedal is pressed
quickly for accelerating with the
Coasting function in operation,
acceleration may occur after the
engagement of the clutch inside the
transmission. In turn, the driver may
continue to feel acceleration even
after the system is turned off.

[Driving with the Coasting function
off may be required in some cases
since the engine brake is not applied
while the Coasting function is
operating.

[Operating the infotainment system
screen to activate or deactivate
the Coasting function while driving
may be dangerous as the driver’s
attention is dispersed.

Drive mode
The mode changes whenever the DRIVE
MODE selection knob is rotated.
COMFORT mode
COMFORT mode provides smooth
driving and comfortable riding.
ECO mode
ECO mode helps improve fuel
efficiency for eco-friendly
driving.
Fuel efficiency varies according
to the driver's driving habit and
road condition.

[When ECO mode is selected, the
ECO indicator will illuminate on the
instrument cluster.

[When ECO mode is activated:
- The acceleration response may be
slightly reduced if the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
- The air conditioner performance
may be limited.
- The shift pattern of the automatic
transmission may change.
- Engine noise may be louder at some
automatic transmission shifts as
down-shift requires pressing down
more on the accelerator.
The above situations are normal
conditions when the ECO mode
is activated to help improve fuel
efficiency.
Limitations of ECO mode
If the following conditions occur while
ECO mode is operating, the system
operation is limited even though there is
no change in ECO indicator.

[When coolant temperature is low:
The system will be limited until engine
performance becomes normal.

[When driving up a hill:
The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because
engine torque is restricted.

[When driving the vehicle in manual
shift mode using the paddle shifter.
The system will be limited according
to the shift location.

If You Have a Flat Tire While
Driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driving:

[Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal and let the vehicle slow down
while driving straight ahead. Do not
apply the brakes immediately or
attempt to pull off the road as this
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident. When the
vehicle has slowed to such a speed
that it is safe to do so, brake carefully
and pull off the road. Drive off the
road as far as possible and park on
firm, level ground. If you are on a
divided highway, do not park in the
median area between the two traffic
lanes.

[When the vehicle is stopped, press
the hazard warning flasher button,
shift the vehicle to P (Park), apply the
parking brake, and press the Engine
Start/Stop button to the OFF position.

[Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle. Be sure they all get out on the
side of the vehicle that is away from
traffic.

[When changing a flat tire, follow the
instructions provided later in this
chapter.
IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT
START

[Be sure to shift the vehicle to P (Park)
if it is an automatic transmission
vehicle. The engine starts only when
the vehicle is in P (Park).

[Turn on the interior light. If the light
dims or goes out when you operate
the starter, the battery is drained.
See instructions for “Jump Starting”
provided in this chapter.

[Check the fuel level and add fuel if
necessary.
If the vehicle still does not start, call an
authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products for assistance.
NOTICE
Push or pull starting the vehicle may
cause the catalytic converter to
overload which can lead to damage to
the emission control system.
