Hyundai Elantra: Brake/clutch fluid. Checking the brake/clutch fluid level
This section covers available personalization features in the Hyundai Elantra, allowing each driver to adjust settings based on their unique preferences.
Check the fluid level in the reservoir periodically. The fluid level should be between MAX and MIN marks on the side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap and adding brake/clutch fluid, clean the area around the reservoir cap thoroughly to prevent brake/clutch fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX level. The level will fall with accumulated mileage. This is a normal condition associated with the wear of the brake linings. If the fluid level is excessively low, have the brake system or clutch (if equipped) checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only the specified brake fluid. (Refer to “Recommended lubricants or capacities” in section 8.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING
In the event the brake system requires frequent additions of fluid, the vehicle should be inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
When changing and adding brake fluid, handle it carefully. Do not let it come in contact with your eyes. If brake fluid should come in contact with your eyes, immediately flush them with a large quantity of fresh tap water. Have your eyes examined by a doctor as soon as possible.
CAUTION
Do not allow brake fluid to contact the vehicle's body paint, as paint damage will result. Brake fluid, which has been exposed to open air for an extended time should never be used as its quality cannot be guaranteed. It should be disposed of properly. Don't put in the wrong kind of fluid. A few drops of mineral- based oil, such as engine oil, in your brake system can damage brake system parts.
Highway Driving Assist (HDA) in the Hyundai Elantra combines adaptive cruise control and lane-centering features for relaxed long-distance driving. If this system fails, your car may no longer automatically maintain speed or stay centered in the lane. Environmental changes, poor lane markings, or dirty sensors can interfere with operation. It’s designed to reduce fatigue on long highway trips. Manual control should always be used if automation is compromised. Resetting the system or restarting the vehicle may restore functionality. Persistent errors should be checked by a qualified technician. Maintaining sensors ensures smoother lane tracking and distance keeping. HDA reduces stress during commutes and highway cruising. It’s a highlight of modern driver convenience and comfort.
