All new Genesis vehicles come with three years of complimentary multimedia and navigation updates. When a new update becomes available, you can use one of the following three options to get the latest update for G70 and G80 models.  

·        During a regularly scheduled maintenance appointment                                                                        

·        Download & Install onto an SD card                                                                                                            

·        Order an updated SD card

The Order Number is available in the “Dashboard” section between the “Place Order” and “View Order” buttons.                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

How big is the download files and how long will it take?                                                

The file is approximately 12GB and will take roughly 3 hours to download and copy to the SD card.

Depending on the network speed available it could be shorter or longer to download the whole file.                                                                                       

I have completed downloading the file, but it will not let me copy to the SD Card?                          

1. Make sure that the original Map SD card from your vehicle is installed and readable on your computer

2. Ensure that the SD Card is not locked (slider on the SD Card)

The file copying process from your PC to the SD card requires the files to be uncompressed and copied to the map SD Card, this could take up to 2 hours to complete.                                                                                                            

I cannot download the file what are my other options to get my update?                                            

The option to order and have the software update shipped to your address is available. Please place an order for the SD card through the MapnSoft site.                                                                                                            

Does the download continue if my computer goes to sleep/locks?                                                   

Please keep computer downloading the file from going to sleep or locking. Downloading can stop when the computer goes to sleep or locks.
