reservoir and add fluid if necessary.

not available. However, use washer sol-
vent with antifreeze characteristics in
cold climates to prevent freezing.
Check the parking brakeCheck the stroke of the parking brake by
counting the number of “clicks’’ heard
whilst fully applying it from the released

should securely hold the vehicle on a fair-
ly steep grade. If the stroke is more or
less than specified, we recommend that
the system be checked by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
