Rear brake
Front brake uid reservoir
Specied brake uid:
DOT 4
WARNING
Improper maintenance can result in
loss of braking ability.
Observe these precautions:
• Insucient brake uid may allow
air to enter the brake system, re-
ducing braking performance.
• Clean the ller cap before remo-
ving. Use only DOT 4 brake uid
from a sealed container.
• Use only the specied brake uid;
otherwise, the rubber seals may
deteriorate, causing leakage.
• Rell with the same type of brake
uid. Adding a brake uid other
than DOT 4 may result in a harmful
chemical reaction.
• Be careful that water or dust does
not enter the brake uid reservoir
when relling. Water will signi-
cantly lower the boiling point of
the uid and may result in vapor
lock, and dirt may clog the ABS
hydraulic unit valves.
NOTICE
Brake uid may damage painted surfa-
ces or plastic parts.
Always clean up spilled uid immedia-
tely.
As the brake pads wear, it is normal for the
brake uid level to gradually go down. A
low brake uid level may indicate worn
brake pads and/or brake system leaka-
ge; therefore, be sure to check the brake
pads for wear and the brake system for
leakage. If the brake uid level goes down
suddenly, have a Benelli dealer check the
cause before further riding.
Changing the brake uid
Have a Benelli dealer change the brake
uid at the intervals specied in the pe-
riodic maintenance and lubrication chart.
