BRAKE SYSTEM CHECKINGcurrents in the Common Rail system
produce considerable magnetic
fields.
!
CAUTION:
The automatic transaxle unit is a
precision engineered assembly and
correct operation is dependant upon
the exclusion of dirt and lint from the
unit. Therefore, it is imperative that
only lint free cloth (eg nylon) is used
for wiping the dipstick and that the
area around the dipstick is thor-
oughly clean prior to level checking
or adding fluid.
Fluid Capacity
Fluid Capacity
The total fluid capacity of the transaxle
unit is 6.1 litres. SG120C2-E
Brake Fluid Recommendations
Only brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or
DOT 4 specifications or higher may be
used in the braking system. Care should
be taken to observe the instructions
and precautions printed upon the con-
tainer.
!
CAUTION:
Correct operation of the braking sys-
tem is essential to the safe operation
of the vehicle and therefore, any main-
tenance operations other than those
listed below should be entrusted to a
Hyundai dealer.
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, fluid should be added. It
should be borne in mind that the brake
fluid level will decrease slightly as the
friction linings of the pads and shoes
become worn and that this is a normal
condition.

!WARNING:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and
should never be stored in an un-
sealed container. The presence of
water in the braking system will cause
vapour locks and increase the possi-
bility of brake fade along with pro-
moting corrosion within the braking
system. The brake fluid must be
changed at the specified time or mile-
age interval to ensure continued safe
operation of the system. Brake fluid
will cause rapid and serious damage
to paintwork. If accidental spillage
occurs, the affected area must be
rinsed with water immediately. Do
not allow brake fluid to come into SG140A1-E
AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
MAINTENANCE
Condenser
Ensure that the condenser is periodi-
cally inspected and that accumulations
of dirt, dead insects and leaves etc, are
removed to ensure that the efficiency of
the system is not impaired. Care must
be exercised to ensure that the con-
denser fins are not damaged during
cleaning.

To add brake fluid;
1) If it is necessary, remove the air
cleaner cover.
2) Wipe away any dirt then unscrew the
fluid reservoir cap.
3) Slowly pour the recommended fluid into the reservoir using by a funnel.
Do not overfill.
4) Carefully replace the cap on the res- ervoir and tighten. contact with the eyes or to be in-
gested and ensure that fluid is safely

CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL
CLEARANCE
G180A01L
1.78 in. (45.1 mm)
You need a helper to check the brake
pedal clearance. With the engine run-
ning, have your helper press down on
the brake pedal several times and then
hold it down with a force of about 490
N (50 Kg, 110 lbs). The brake pedal
clearance is the distance from the top
surface of the brake pedal to the as-
phalt sheeting under the floor mat.
If the brake pedal clearance is not
within the limits specified in the illustra-
tion, have it inspected by your Hyundai
dealer and adjusted or repaired if nec-
essary.SG170A1-E

The brake pedal freeplay should be
checked with the engine turned off. The
pedal to floor clearance should be
checked with the engine running and a
load of 490 N applied to the pedal. If
either value is incorrect, the necessary
adjustment should be performed by a
Hyundai dealer. Pedal to floor clear-
ance: 1.97 in. (50 mm)SG160A1-E
