Fluid type
Use brake fluid conforming to DOT3 or DOT4 from a sealed
container. The brake fluid is hygroscopic. Too much moisture
in the brake fluid will adversely affect the brake system, reduc-
ing the brake performance.
Clutch fluid
*
E01001000193
To check the fluid level
The clutch fluid in the master cylinder should be checked when
performing other underhood service. In addition, the system
should be checked for leakage at the same time.
Check to ensure that the clutch fluid level is always between
the “MAX” and “MIN” level markings on the fluid reservoir.
CAUTION
!
●
Take care in handling brake fluid as it is harmful to
the eyes, may irritate your skin and also damage
painted surfaces.
●
Use only the specified brake fluid.
Do not mix or add different brands of brake fluid to
prevent chemical reactions.
Do not let any petroleum-based fluid touch, mix
with, or get into the brake fluid.
This will damage the seals.
●
Keep the reservoir tank cap closed to prevent the
brake fluid from deteriorating except maintenance.
●
Clean the filler cap before removing and close the
cap securely after maintenance.
