WARNING
•
Using waste or old brake fluid or using
brake fluid not applicable to the car will
remarkably reduce the braking effect
and even cause the brake system to fail!
The company does not assume any
responsibility
(including
quality
guarantee) for car failures and damage
caused thereby.
•
Brake fluid in use must meet the criteria,
and be fresh.
Indicator lamp of brake system
When the car is running, if the
indicator lamp
comes on in red, and the instrument cluster
displays the information "Please add brake fluid",
be sure to immediately stop the car at a safe place
and check whether the brake fluid level is normal.
Check the brake fluid level
When the engine cools down, check whether the
brake fluid level is between the upper limit mark
"MAX" and the lower limit mark "MIN".
During car use, the brake fluid level will slightly
drop due to the worn brake linings and automatic
adjustment.
If the brake fluid level drops significantly in a short
period of time or drops below "MIN", it indicates
that the brake system may leak.
NOTE
•
After check of the brake fluid level, if the
fluid level is below the lower limit mark
"MIN", brake fluid must be added.
•
If the brake system alarm indicator lamp
does not go out or comes on again after the
brake fluid is added, there may be a leak in
the brake system, causing the brake fluid
level to drop quickly, or the brake system
malfunctions. In this case, do not continue
to drive and contact the GAC Motor
authorized shop in time for inspection.
Add brake fluid
In order to ensure the normal operation of the
brake system, the added brake fluid shall meet the
specifications:
–
Open the brake fluid reservoir cap
counterclockwise.
–
Add fresh brake fluid to the upper limit mark
"MAX" and stop adding.
–
Tighten the brake fluid reservoir cap
clockwise.
