OPERATION
PRI - Brake fluid inspection
The right brake lever on your People S 250 scooter controls
the front hydraulic disc brake. The left brake lever controls the
rear hydraulic disc brake. .
Check the fluid level through the inspection window on both
brake fluid master cylinder reservoirs.
1. Verify that the fluid level is above the “L” mark
1
in the
brake fluid reservoir window. See the MAINTENANCE sec-
tion of this Owner’s Manual for additional information about
the front brake fluid.
As the brake pads wear, the brake fluid level drops as the
hydraulic system automatically compensates for the wear.
There are no adjustments to perform, but fluid level and
pad wear must be inspected periodically to make sure the
brakes will function properly.
The system must also be inspected for fluid leaks. Leaks
can cause the system to lose pressure and not function.
To prevent damage to the brake system, only use DOT 4
brake fluid from a sealed container. Never allow contami-
nants (dirt, water, etc.) to enter the brake fluid reservoir.
See your KYMCO dealer for this service.
Brake fluid can damage paint and plastic, so handle the
brake fluid with care. When adding brake fluid, be sure
that the reservoir is horizontal before removing the cover
so you will not spill fluid onto the scooter.
