Parking Brake Inspection

Pedal Travel

Check whether the travel is within specification when the parking brake pedal is depressed with a force of 44 lbf (20 kgf, 196 N). Also, the parking brake alone should securely hold the vehicle on a fairly steep grade. If the travel is more or less than specified, have the parking brake adjusted by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
