Brake Fluid Level Inspection
WARNING:
Do not spill brake fluid on painted surfaces,
the finish could be damaged. Spilling brake fluid on the
body plastics will cause them to crack. Clean off any
brake fluid spills immediately.
Always place a shop towel under the master cylinder
reservoir prior to removing cover.
Low fluid levels may indicate worn brake pads or a
leak in the hydraulic system. Inspect the brake pads for
wear and/or the hydraulic system for leaks. Use only
new DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container.
The brake fluid should be flushed out and replaced
every two (2) years.
