Maintenance
Brake hoses and lines 
Visually check for proper installation, 
chafing, cracks, deterioration and any
leakage. Replace any deteriorated or
damaged parts immediately. Brake fluid 
Check brake fluid level in the brake fluid 
reservoir. The level should be between
“MIN” and “MAX” marks on the side of
the reservoir. Use only hydraulic brake
fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4specification.Parking brake 
Inspect the parking brake system includ- 
ing the parking brake lever and cables. 
Brake pads, calipers and rotors 
Check the pads for excessive wear, discs 
for run out and wear, and calipers for fluid
leakage. 
For more information on checking the 
pads or lining wear limit, refer to the
Hyundai web site. (

Suspension mounting bolts 
Check the suspension connections for 
looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque. Steering gear box, linkage & 
boots/lower arm ball joint 
With the vehicle stopped and engine off, 
check for excessive free-play in the
steering wheel. 
Check the linkage for bends or damage. 
Check the dust boots and ball joints for
deterioration, cracks, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts. Drive shafts and boots 
Check the drive shafts, boots and clamps 
for cracks, deterioration, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts and, if nec-
essary, repack the grease. 
Air conditioning refrigerant/ compressor (if equipped) 
Check the air conditioning lines and con- 
nections for leakage and damage.
CAUTION
The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transaxle malfunc-
tion and failure.
Use only specified automatictransaxle fluid. (Refer to“Recommended lubricants and
capacities” in section 8.)
