Features Activated

Not every dashboard light indicates the need for the immediate attention of a mechanic. In fact, some lights illuminate just to tell you a feature of your vehicle is activated. These include: - **Driving modes** - **Safety features** - **Headlights/Turn Signals** Take the Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) feature you may see, for example. This light looks like a car driving in a lane with inward facing arrows. When you see this light on your dashboard, it means that your Lane Keeping Assist safety feature is activated.

Genesis G80 Dashboard Light Guide: Attention Needed

Another type of dashboard lights you may see are warning lights that indicate attention is needed. Some warning lights include: - **Engine oil pressure:** Shaped like a dripping oil can, this light lets you know your engine oil is too low and needs to be added to or changed in the near future. - **Low fuel level:** When this light—shaped like a gas pump—appears, it means you need to refuel. - **Low tire pressure:** This light appears as an exclamation mark inside a horseshoe. When you see this, it means you need to add more air to your tires. While these lights likely don’t require the attention of a mechanic, you’ll want to resolve the indicated warning as soon as possible.

Issue Detected Dashboard Lights

Some Genesis G80 dashboard lights require the attention of a skilled mechanic. These include the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). Shaped like an engine, this light lets you know a potential problem was detected within the Engine Control System. You may notice that you see this light illuminate your dashboard when you first turn the ignition to ON. If the light disappears after a few seconds, this is normal and doesn’t require the attention of a mechanic. It’s only when this light doesn’t turn off that your Engine Control System must be checked by a mechanic as soon as possible.
