Cooling system
Check cooling system components,
such as radiator, coolant reservoir,
hoses and connections for leakage
and damage. Replace any damaged
parts.
Engine coolant/Inverter
coolant
The coolant should be changed at
the intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule.
Automatic transaxle fluid
Automatic transaxle fluid should not
be checked under normal usage con-
ditions. But in severe conditions, the
fluid should be changed at an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer in accordance
to the scheduled maintenance at the
beginning of this chapter.
NOTICE
Automatic transaxle fluid color is
basically red.
As the vehicle is driven, the auto-
matic transaxle fluid will begin to
look darker. This is a normal con-
dition and you should not judge
the need to replace the fluid based
upon the changed color.
CAUTION
The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transaxle mal-
function and failure. Use only
the
specified
automatic
transaxle
fluid
(refer
"Recommended Lubricants and
Capacities" in chapter 8).
Brake hoses and lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and
any leakage. Replace any deteriorat-
ed or damaged parts immediately.
Brake fluid
Check brake fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir. The level should be
between the MIN and the MAX
marks on the side of the reservoir.
Use only hydraulic brake fluid con-
forming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifi-
cation.
Parking brake
Inspect the parking brake system
including the parking brake pedal
and cables.
