Procedure, brake fluid level (dependent
upon lining/pad wear): Check
– Release securing bolts -1- and -2- and remove cover upwards.
Please note the following:
Brake fluid level at delivery inspection:
– At delivery inspection the fluid level must be at MAX. marking
-1-.
Note
In order that brake fluid does not overflow the reservoir, MAX
marking -1- must not be exceeded.
Brake fluid level at inspection service
The fluid level must always be judged in conjunction with lining/
pad wear.
When vehicle is in use, fluid level tends to drop slightly due to
lining/pad wear and automatic adjustment.
• Recommended brake fluid level, if brake pads are almost at
wear limit:
„At MIN. marking or just above“ -2-, „REPLENISHING IS NOT
REQUIRED“.
• Recommended brake fluid level when brake pads are new or
well within wear limit:
„Between MIN and MAX marking“.
WARNING
If fluid level is below MIN. marking -2-, the brake system should
be checked before fluid is topped up „Repair measure“
