6. Operation and maintenance
Inspecting brake fluid level
When the engine cools down, check whether
the brake fluid level is between the maximum
scale mark “MAX” and the minimum scale
mark “MIN”.
During vehicle use, the brake fluid level will
slightly drop due to the worn brake linings and
automatic adjustment.
If the brake fluid level drops significantly in a
short period of time or drops below “MIN”, it
indicates that the brake system may leak.
CAUTION
● The brake fluid will corrode the paint
surface of the vehicle body. Brake fluid
splashed on the paint surface shall be
wiped off in time.
● Using waste brake fluid or using brake
fluid not applicable to the vehicle will
remarkably reduce the braking effect
due to incompatibility and even cause
the brake system to fail.
WARNING
● Brake fluid is toxic. It must be
contained in the original sealed
container, placed in a safe place,
and kept out of children’s contact to
avoid poisoning due to accidental
ingestion.
● Brake fluid must be stored in
accordance with environmental
protection laws.
NOTE
● After check of the brake fluid level, if
the fluid level is below “MIN”, brake
fluid must be added.
● If the brake system warning lamp
does not go out or lights up again
during driving after the brake fluid is
added, there may be leakage in the
brake system, resulting in too fast
brake fluid level reduction or failure
of the brake system. In this case, do
not continue driving. Please contact
GAC Motor authorized shop for
maintenance in time.
Adding brake fluid
In order to ensure the normal operation of the
brake system, the added brake fluid shall meet
the specifications:
-
Open the brake fluid reservoir cap
counterclockwise.
-
Add fresh brake fluid to the maximum
scale mark “MAX” and stop adding.
-
Tighten the brake fluid reservoir cap
clockwise.
