CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
1. Place the vehicle on a level surface.
TIP
When checking the brake fluid level, make sure
that the top of the brake master cylinder reser-
voir or brake fluid reservoir is horizontal.
2. Check:
• Brake fluid level
Below the minimum level mark “a”
→
Add
the recommended brake fluid to the
proper level.
WARNING
EWA13090
• Use only the designated brake fluid.
Other brake fluids may cause the rubber
seals to deteriorate, causing leakage and
poor brake performance.
• Refill with the same type of brake fluid
that is already in the system. Mixing brake
fluids may result in a harmful chemical
reaction, leading to poor brake perfor-
mance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake fluid reservoir. Water
will significantly lower the boiling point of
the brake fluid and could cause vapor
lock.
ECA13540
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean
up any spilt brake fluid immediately.
TIP
In order to ensure a correct reading of the
brake fluid level, make sure that the top of the
brake master cylinder reservoir or brake fluid
reservoir is horizontal.
