Hydraulic brake fluid inspection
Frequently scheduled inspections of hydraulic fluid level and wear condition of brake pads must be
carried out.
If the free play of the brake lever is excessive (>2-‐3cm) and the brake pad wear is within its specified
limits, air may be trapped in the braking system. It must be expelled. Take your scooter to an authorized
Nipponia service point for brake maintenance.
When the hydraulic fluid level has fallen to the MIN mark, refill the fluid in the reservoir.
1. Remove the handlebar cover, reservoir cap, pad and seal
(2, 3 and 4)
2. Add DOT3 or DOT4 brake fluid from a sealed closed container into the reservoir until the fluid level is
at the MAX mark.
3. Reinstall the reservoir pad, reservoir cap and handlebar cover and tighten the screws
