Q
➞
Fill to proper level.
Recommended brake fluid :
DOT # 3 or DOT # 4
The brake fluid may corrode painted surfaces
or plastic parts. Always clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
• Use only the designated quality fluid.
Otherwise, the rubber seals may deteriorate
causing leakage and poor brake
performance.
• Refill with the same type of fluid. Mixing
fluids may result in a harmful chemical
reaction leading to poor brake perfor-
mance.
• Be careful that water does no enter the
master cylinder when refilling. Water will
significantly lower the boiling point of the
fluid and may result in vapor lock.
