!
CAUTION:
Because brakes are essential to the
safe operation of the car, it is sug-
gested that they be checked and
inspected by your Hyundai dealer.
The brakes should be checked and
inspected for wear at those inter-
vals specified in the vehicle mainte-
nance schedule in Section 5.

Checking the Brake Fluid Level

!
WARNING:
Use caution when handling brake
fluid. It can damage your vision if it
gets into your eyes. It will also dam-
age your vehicle's paint if spilled
on it and not removed immediately.
G120D01A-AAT

To Check the Fluid Level

OMC055015
The fluid level in the brake fluid reser-
voir should be checked periodically.
The level should be between the "MIN"
and "MAX" marks on the side of the
reservoir. If the level is at or below the
"MIN" mark, carefully add fluid to bring
it up to "MAX". Do not overfill.

Adding Brake Fluid

!
WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can
damage your vision if it gets into
your eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT
4 specification fluid from a sealed
container. Do not allow the fluid
can or reservoir to remain open any
longer than required. This will pre-
vent entry of dirt and moisture which
can damage the brake system and
cause improper operation.
To add brake fluid, first wipe away any
dirt then unscrew the fluid reservoir
cap. Slowly pour the recommended
fluid into the reservoir. Do not overfill.
Carefully replace the cap on the reser-
voir and tighten.
