BRAKE/CLUTCH (IF EQUIPPED) FLUID
Checking the brake/clutch* fluid 
level  
Check the fluid level in the reservoir peri- 
odically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the 
side of the reservoir. 
Before removing the reservoir cap and 
adding brake/clutch* fluid, clean the area 
around the reservoir cap thoroughly to 
prevent brake/clutch* fluid contamina-tion. *
:if equippedIf the level is low, add fluid to the MAX 
level. The level will fall with accumulated 
mileage. This is a normal condition asso-
ciated with the wear of the brake linings
and/or clutch disc (if equipped). If the 
fluid level is excessively low, have the 
brake/clutch* system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only the specified brake/clutch* fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended lubricants andcapacities” in section 8.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING - Brake/clutch* fluid
When changing and adding 
brake/clutch* fluid, handle it care-
fully. Do not let it come in contact
with your eyes. If brake/clutch* fluid 
should come in contact with your 
eyes, immediately flush them with a
large quantity of fresh tap water. 
Have your eyes examined by a doc- 
tor as soon as possible.
WARNING - Loss of
brake/clutch* fluid
In the event the brake/clutch* system 
requires frequent additions of fluid, 
the vehicle should be inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS AND CAPACITIES  
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use only lubricants of the proper quality. The correct 
lubricants also help promote engine efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.
* 1
Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
* 2
Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel econo my by reducing
the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.

If the API service SM engine oil is not available in your country, you are able to use API service SL.
