10-26 Vehicle Care

Refer to the Maintenance Schedule

to determine when to check the

brake fluid. See Maintenance

Schedule on page 11‑3.

Checking Brake Fluid

Check brake fluid by looking at the

brake fluid reservoir. See Engine

Compartment Overview on

page 10‑6.

The fluid level should be above

MIN. If it is not, have the brake

hydraulic system checked to see if

there is a leak.

After work is done on the brake

hydraulic system, make sure the

level is above the MIN but not over

the MAX mark.

What to Add

Use only new DOT 3 brake fluid

from a sealed container. See

Recommended Fluids and

Lubricants on page 11‑13.

Always clean the brake fluid

reservoir cap and the area around

the cap before removing it. This

helps keep dirt from entering the

reservoir.

{

WARNING

With the wrong kind of fluid in the

brake hydraulic system, the

brakes might not work well. This

could cause a crash. Always use

the proper brake fluid.

Notice

.

Using the wrong fluid can

badly damage brake

hydraulic system parts. For

example, just a few drops of

mineral-based oil, such as

engine oil, in the brake

hydraulic system can

damage brake hydraulic

system parts so badly that

they will have to be replaced.

Do not let someone put in

the wrong kind of fluid.

.

If brake fluid is spilled on the

vehicle's painted surfaces,

the paint finish can be

damaged. Be careful not to

spill brake fluid on the

vehicle. If you do, wash it off

immediately.
