How to adjust the handbrake in the Hyundai Getz?

Model: Hyundai Getz MK 1 - Years 2002-2011
Part: Parking brake

In this tutorial we can see how to adjust the handbrake in the Hyundai Getz, an extremely simple and quick operation. First of all, we park the vehicle on a flat surface with the first gear engaged, then we release the handbrake, locate the indicated slot on the lever, and, using a small screwdriver with a flat tip, remove the cover. We then locate the adjustment nut, tighten it slightly using a socket wrench, and reach the desired tension level. Finally, we test the new adjustment on a suitable road, of course, in full safety.
