for any accumulation of bugs, leaves, etc. If
dirty, clean by gently spraying water from a
garden hose vertically down the face of the
condenser.
Adding Washer Fluid
The windshield washer fluid reservoir is lo-
cated in the engine compartment, and the
fluid level should be checked at regular inter-
vals. Fill the reservoir with windshield washer
solvent (not engine coolant/ antifreeze). Re-
fer to “Engine Compartment” in this section
for further information.
WARNING!
Commercially available windshield washer
solvents are flammable. They could ignite
and burn you. Care must be exercised
when filling or working around the washer
solution.
Brake System
In order to assure brake system performance,
all brake system components should be in-
spected periodically. Refer to the “Mainte-
nance Plan” in this section for the proper
maintenance intervals.
WARNING!
Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure
and possibly a collision. Driving with your
foot resting or riding on the brake pedal
can result in abnormally high brake tem-
peratures, excessive lining wear, and pos-
sible brake damage. Riding the brakes
may also reduce braking capacity in an
emergency.
Brake Master Cylinder
The fluid level in the master cylinder should
be checked when performing under hood
services, or immediately if the “Brake Warn-
ing Light” is on.
Be sure to clean the top of the master cylin-
der area before removing the cap. If neces-
sary, add fluid to bring the fluid level up to
the requirements described on the brake
fluid reservoir. Fluid level can be expected to
fall as the brake pads wear. The brake fluid
level should be checked when the pads are
replaced. However, low fluid level may be
caused by a leak and a checkup may be
needed.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with a manual
transmission , the brake fluid reservoir sup-
plies fluid to both the brake system and the
clutch release system. The two systems are
separated in the reservoir, and a leak in one
system will not affect the other system. The
manual transmission clutch release system
should not require fluid replacement during
the life of the vehicle. If the brake fluid
reservoir is low and the brake system does not
indicate any leaks or other problems, it may
be a result of a leak in the hydraulic clutch
release system. See your local authorized
dealer for service.
Use only manufacturer's recommended
brake fluid. Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants”
in the “Technical Specifications” section for
further information.
