BRAKE/CLUTCH FLUID (IF EQUIPPED)
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 contamination. If the level is low, add
fluid to the MAX level. The level will fall
with accumulated mileage. This is a nor-
mal condition associated with the wear of
the brake linings. If the fluid level is
excessively low, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only the specified brake/clutch fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended lubricants and
capacities” in section 8.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
✽NOTICE
Before removing the brake/clutch filter
cap, read the warning on the cap.
OTQ074006
WARNING- Loss of
brake/clutch fluid
In the event the brake/clutch sys-
tem requires frequent additions of
fluid, we recommend that the sys-
tem be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING- Brake/ clutch
fluid
When changing and adding brake/
clutch fluid, handle it carefully. 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 doctor as
soon as possible.
CAUTION
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid to
contact the vehicle's body paint, as
paint damage will result. Brake/clutch
fluid, which has been exposed to
open air for an extended time should
never be used as its quality cannot be
guaranteed. It should be disposed of
properly. Don't put in the wrong kind
of fluid. A few drops of mineral-based
oil, such as engine oil, in your brake/
clutch system can damage brake/
clutch system parts.
WARNING
Clean filler cap before removing.
Use only DOT3 or DOT4 brake/clutch
fluid from a sealed container.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID (IF EQUIPPED)
G100100ATQ
Checking the automatic transmis-
sion fluid level
✽NOTICE
If your vehicle is not equipped with the
automatic transmission level gauge, we
recommend that the automatic trans-
mission fluid inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
maintenance schedule.
If your vehicle is equipped with the
automatic transmission level gauge,
inspect the fluid level as follows.
The automatic transmission fluid level
should be checked regularly.
Keep the vehicle on the level ground with
the parking brake applied and check the
fluid level according to the following pro-
cedure.
1. Place the selector lever in N (Neutral)
position and confirm the engine is run-
ning at normal idle speed.
2. After the transmission is warmed up
sufficiently (fluid temperature 70~80°C
(158~176°F), for example by 10 min-
utes usual driving, move the shift lever
through all positions then place the
selector lever in “N (Neutral) or P
(Park)” position.

3. Confirm that the fluid level is in “HOT”
range on the level gauge. If the fluid
level is lower, add the specified fluid
from the fill hole. If the fluid level is
higher, drain the fluid from the drain
hole.
4. If the fluid level is checked in cold con-
dition (fluid temperature 20~30°C
(68~86°F) add the fluid to “C” (COLD)
line and then recheck the fluid level
according to the above step 2.
✽NOTICE
“C” (COLD) range is for reference only
and should NOT be used to determine
transmission fluid level.
OTQ077009
WARNING - Transmission
fluid
The transmission fluid level should
be checked when the engine is at
normal operating temperature. This
means that the engine, radiator,
radiator hose and exhaust system
etc., are very hot. Exercise great
care not to burn yourself during
this procedure.
WARNING- Parking brake
To avoid sudden movement of the
vehicle, apply parking brake and
depress the brake pedal before
moving the shift lever.
CAUTION
• Low fluid level causes transmis-
sion slippage. Overfilling can
cause foaming, loss of fluid and
transmission malfunction.
• The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transmission mal-
function and failure.
