BRAKE/CLUTCH FLUID
Checking the brake/clutch fluid
level
If the level is low, add the specified
brake/clutch fluid to the MAX level.
The level will fall with accumulated
mileage.
This is a normal condition associated
with the wear of the brake linings. If
the fluid level is excessively low, have
the brake/clutch system checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION
• Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to contact the vehicle’s body
paint, as paint damage will
result.
• Brake/clutch 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 dis-
posed of properly.
Do not use the wrong kind of
brake/clutch fluid. A few drops
of mineral based oil, such as
engine oil, in your brake/
clutch system can damage
brake/clutch system parts.
WARNING
If
the
brake/clutch
system
•
requires frequent additions of
fluid this could indicate a leak in
the brake/clutch system. Have
the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
