Checking the Transaxle Oil (Manual)

Transaxle lubricant in the manual transaxle should be checked at those intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5.

WARNING:

It is always better to check the transaxle oil level when the engine is cool or cold. If the engine is hot, you should exercise great caution to avoid burning yourself on hot engine or exhaust parts.

NOTE:

It is recommended that the manual transaxle fluid should be checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
