Electric power steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the engine is turned off
or if the power steering system
becomes inoperative, you may still
steer the vehicle, but it will require
increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
If the Electric Power Steering System
does not operate normally, the warn-
ing light ( ) will illuminate on the
instrument cluster. The steering
wheel will require increase effort. We
recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products as soon
as possible.
Information
The following symptoms may occur dur-
ing normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort may be high
immediately after placing the Engine
Start/Stop button in the ON position.
This happens as the system performs
the EPS system diagnostics. When
the diagnostics is completed, the
steering wheel will return to its nor-
mal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from the
EPS relay after the Engine Start/Stop
button is in the ON or OFF position.
• Motor noise may be heard when the
vehicle is at stop or at a low driving
speed.
• When you operate the steering wheel
in low temperature, abnormal noise
may occur. If temperature rises, the
noise will disappear. This is a normal
condition.
Tilt steering / Telescope steering
Adjust the steering wheel so it points
toward your chest, not toward your
face. Make sure you can see the
instrument cluster warning lights and
gauges. Always adjust the position of
the steering wheel before driving.
To change the steering wheel angle
and height:
• Move the switch (1) up and down to
adjust the angle (2).
• Move the switch forward or rear-
ward to adjust the height (3).
Do not adjust the steering wheel
longer than necessary when the
engine is turned off.This may result
in unnecessary battery drain.
