Checking the washer fluid level
OBC3090017
Check the fluid level in the washer fluid
reservoir and add fluid if necessary.
Plain water may be used if washer fluid
is not available.
However, use washer solvent with
antifreeze characteristics in cold
climates to prevent freezing.
WARNING
To prevent serious injury or death, take
the following safety precautions when
using washer fluid:
[ ' R Q R W X V H H Q J L Q H F R R O D Q W R U
antifreeze in the washer fluid
reservoir. Engine coolant can
severely obscure visibility when
sprayed on the windscreen and may
cause loss of vehicle control resulting
in an accident or damage to paint
and body trim.

Checking the parking brake
OBC3060005
Check the stroke of the parking brake by
counting the number of “clicks’’ heard
whilst fully applying it from the released
position.
Also, the parking brake alone should
securely hold the vehicle on a fairly
steep grade. If the stroke is more or
less than specified, we recommend that
the system be inspected by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
Stroke : 5~7 “clicks’’ at a force of 20 kg
(44 lbs, 196 N).
