BRAKE FLUID
Checking the brake fluid level
If the fluid level is excessively low, we
recommend   that    the   system   be
checked by an authorized  HYUNDAI
dealer.
Use  only  the  specified  brake  fluid.
(Refer to  “Recommended lubricants
or capacities” in section 8.)
WARNING - Brake fluid
When   changing    and   adding
brake  fluid, handle  it  carefully.
Do  not  let  it  come  in  contact
with  your  eyes.   If  brake  fluid
should  come   in  contact   with
your   eyes,  immediately   flush
them  with  a  large  quantity   of
fresh tap water. Have  your eyes
examined  by a  doctor as  soon
as possible.
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING - Loss of
brake fluid
In  the  event the  brake  system
requires  frequent  additions  of
fluid,  we  recommend  that   the
system   be   inspected    by   an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
OBH071006
Check the fluid  level in the  reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
CAUTION
Do not allow  brake fluid to con-
tact the vehicle's  body paint, as
paint damage  will  result. Brake
fluid,  which has  been  exposed
to open air for an extended time
should  never   be  used   as   its
quality cannot be  guaranteed. It
should be disposed of  properly.
Don't  put in  the  wrong kind  of
fluid.  A  few  drops  of  mineral-
based oil, such as  engine oil, in
your brake  system can damage
brake system parts.
Before  removing  the  reservoir  cap      NOTICE
Before   removing  the   brake   filler
cap, read the warning on the cap.
and  adding   brake  fluid,  clean  the
area around  the  reservoir cap  thor-
oughly to prevent brake fluid contam-
ination.
WARNING
If  the  level  is low,  add  fluid  to  the
MAX  level.  The  level   will  fall  with
accumulated mileage. This  is a  nor-
mal  condition   associated  with   the
wear of the brake linings.
Clean  filler  cap  before  remov-
ing.  Use  only   DOT3  or   DOT4
brake  fluid from  a  sealed con-
tainer.
