Note. Hydraulic brake and clutch systems share a common reserve fluid reservoir.
Warning.
- Brake fluid is harmful to eyes and painted surfaces. Handle her with care.
- Do not use liquid that has been stored in an open container for a long time, as it absorbs moisture from the air. This can lead to a significant reduction in the effectiveness of the brakes.
The brake fluid level may drop slightly as the brake pads wear, but should not be allowed to drop below the mark "MIN".
Before checking
Make sure the vehicle is on level ground.
Safety first!
If the brake fluid level drops rapidly and requires frequent topping up, this means that there are leaks in the system that must be immediately detected and repaired.
If a brake fluid leak is suspected, do not drive the vehicle until you have thoroughly checked the brake system. Never risk driving a car with the slightest doubt about the serviceability of the brakes.
1. Tags "MAX" And "MIN" applied to the wall of the storage tank. The brake fluid level must always be maintained between these marks.
2. Before adding fluid, wipe the area around the filler neck to prevent dirt from entering the brake system.
3. Unscrew the tank cap and carefully remove it, being careful not to damage the float, remove the float. Check the condition of the working fluid. If it's dirty, replace it (see chapter 1).
4. Add fluid carefully, being careful not to spill it on the surrounding surfaces. Use only fluid recommended by the manufacturer. Mixing fluids of different types can cause brake system failure. After filling to the required level, screw the lid on tightly and remove any fluid leaks.
