CHECKING THE BRAKES

Because brakes are essential to
the safe operation of the car, it is suggested that they be checked and inspected by your Hyundaidealer. The brakes should be checked and inspected for wear at those intervals specified in thevehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5.
G120B01A-A AT
Checking the Brake Fluid Level
WARNING:
Use caution when handling brakefluid. It can damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. It will alsodamage your vehicle's paint if spilled on it and not removed im- mediately.
G110D03Y
Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
3. If the transaxle fluid level is low, use a funnel to add transaxle fluid through the dipstick tube until the level reaches the "HOT" range. Do not overfill.
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature andmay sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan,so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temperature decreases, thefan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
While the engine is idling, apply the
brakes and move the gear selector lever from "P" to each of its otherpositions -- "R", "N", "D" -- and then return to "N" or "P" with the engine still idling:
1. Open the hood, being careful to
keep hands, long hair and clothing clear of any moving parts.
2. Remove the transaxle dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstick as far as it will go, then remove it again.Now check the fluid level on the dipstick. It should be in the "HOT" range on the dipstick. HXG556J
