Transaxle fluid level checking The vehicle must be parked on level ground with the parking brake firmly applied and the engine at normal oper-ating temperature. (Normal operating temperature will only be achieved when the vehicle has been driven for 6 milesor more). HFC5008
Wipe the dipstick, replace it fully and
promptly remove it again. The fluidlevel should be between the upper and lower marks. CAUTION:
The automatic transaxle unit is a precision engineered assembly andcorrect operation is dependant upon the exclusion of dirt and lint from the unit. Therefore, it is imperative that only lint free cloth (eg nylon) is used for wiping the dipstick andthat the area around the dipstick is thoroughly clean prior to level checking or adding fluid.!
C090A01FC-D With the engine idling and the footbrake
applied, the transaxle selector should be moved from the "P" position through to the "L" position and back to the "N" or "P" position.
Open the bonnet and remove the
transaxle dipstick, remembering thatcare must be exercised to preventinjury occurring through contact with hot or rotating parts of the engine.
This means that the engine, radia-tor, exhaust system etc., are very hot so you should exercise greatcare not to burn yourself during this procedure.
Fluid need only be added if the level is at or below the lower mark and mustnever be increased above the higher mark. If additional fluid is required, this should be poured into the transmissionthrough the dipstick tube with the aid of a suitable funnel.

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.

Brake Fluid Recommendations
Only brake fluid conforming to DOT 3
or DOT 4 specifications or higher may be used in the braking system. Care should be taken to observe the in- structions and precautions printed uponthe container.

Brake Fluid Level
HFC5005

Diesel engine WARNING:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should never be stored in an un- sealed container. The presence ofwater in the braking system will cause vapour locks and increase the possibility of brake fade alongwith promoting corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must be changed at the specifiedtime or mileage interval to ensure continued safe operation of the sys- tem. Brake fluid will cause rapidand serious damage to paintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, the af- fected area must be rinsed withwater immediately. Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the eyes or to be ingested andensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of children.
The fluid level in the brake fluid reser-voir should be checked periodically. The level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of thereservoir. If the level is at or below the "MIN" mark, fluid should be added having carefully cleaned the area sur-rounding the reservoir cap to ensure that dirt is not allowed to enter the system. It should be noted that thebrake fluid level will decrease slightly as the friction linings of the pads and shoes become worn and that this is anormal condition.

CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID
The system should be checked for leakage at the same time.Ensure that the clutch fluid level is
always between the "MAX" and "MIN"level markings on the fluid reservoir.Fill as required. Fluid loss indicates a leak in the clutch system which should be inspected and repaired immediately.

To Check the Clutch Fluid
Petol engine
Diesel engine HFC5005
G120D02FC
The clutch fluid level in the mastercylinder should be checked when per- forming other under bonnet checks. SG130B2-E
Adding Fluid
Recommended brake fluid conforming
to DOT 3 or DOT 4 should be used.The reservoir cap must be fully tight- ened to avoid contamination from for-eign matter or moisture.
CAUTION:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and
should never be stored in an un-sealed container. Do not allow pe-troleum base fluid to contaminate the brake fluid since damage to the rubber seals of the system may re-sult.
! WARNING:
Brake fluid will cause rapid and
serious damage to paintwork. If ac- cidental spillage occurs, the affectedarea must be rinsed with water im- mediately. Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the eyesor to be ingested and ensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of children.
