Brake hoses and lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and any
leakage. Replace any deteriorated or
damaged parts immediately.
Brake fluid
Check the brake fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir. The level should be
between the MIN and the MAX marks
on the side of the reservoir. Use only
hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT
4 specification.
Parking brake
Inspect the parking brake system.
Brake discs, pads, calipers and
rotors
Check the pads, the disc, and the rotor
for any excessive wear-out. Inspect
calipers for any fluid leakage
For more information on checking the
pads or lining wear limit, refer to the
HYUNDAI web site.

Exhaust pipe and muffler
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler and hangers for cracks,
deterioration, or damage. Start
the engine and listen carefully for
any exhaust gas leakage. Tighten
connections or replace parts as
necessary.
Suspension mounting bolts
Check the suspension connections for
looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque.
Steering gear box, linkage &
boots/lower arm ball joint
With the vehicle stopped and the hybrid
system off, check for excessive free-play
in the steering wheel. Check the linkage
for bends or damage. Check the dust
boots and ball joints for deterioration,
cracks, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Air conditioning refrigerant
Check the air conditioning lines and
connections for leakage and damage.
Drive Shaft and Related
Check the drive shaft, boots, clamps,
rubber couplings and center-bearing
rubber for cracks, deterioration, or
damage. Replace any damaged parts
