Hyundai Elantra: Maintenance / Parking brake
Checking the parking brake
![](images/parking_brake-3217/2840/pages.15(10).png)
Check the stroke of the parking brake by
counting the number of “clicks’’ heard
while 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 serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Checking the Washer Fluid Level
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...
Filter replacement
The air cleaner filter can be cleaned for
inspection using compressed air. Do not
attempt to wash or to rinse it, as water
will damage the filter...
