BRAKE SYSTEM CHECKING
Fluid level should be within this range
C090A03FC
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extremecaution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fanblade. As the engine coolant tem- perature decreases, the fan will au- tomatically shut off. This is a nor-mal condition. WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with
engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. Highpressure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the enginestopped. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury, if it contacts the body.
People using pacemakers should
ensure that they keep a distance of30cm from the ECU or wiring har- ness within the engine room whilst engine is running, since the highcurrents in the Common Rail sys- tem produce considerable magnetic fields. SG120A1-E
CAUTION:
Correct operation of the braking
system is essential to the safe op-eration of the vehicle and therefore, any maintenance operations other than those listed below should beentrusted to a Hyundai authorised repairer.
