tain circumstances. Do  not allow

Checking the washer fluid level
Checking the parking brake
The reservoir  is translucent  so that  you
can  check the  level  with a  quick  visual
inspection.
Check the  fluid level  in the  washer fluid
reservoir and add fluid if necessary. Plain
water may be  used if washer  fluid is not
available. However,  use  washer  solvent
with antifreeze characteristics in  cold cli-
mates to prevent freezing.
Check the stroke of the parking  brake by
counting  the  number   of  “clicks’’  heard
while fully  applying it  from  the released
position.  Also, the  parking  brake  alone
should securely hold the vehicle on a fair-
ly  steep grade.  If the  stroke is  more  or
less  than   specified,  have  the   parking
brake
adjusted
by
an
authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Stroke : 6~8  “clicks’’   at   a  force   of
44
lbs (20 kg, 196 N).
