MAINTENANCE
143
Brake fluid change
Complete brake system fluid replacement should be performed only by trained service personnel.
Have your dealer replace the following components during periodic maintenance, or when they are
damaged or leaking:
Replace the seals every two (2) years.
Replace the brake hoses every four (4) years.
Brake light switch operation
The brake light switch is activated by foot brake pedal pressure, and is properly working when the
brake light comes on just as braking takes effect. Check that the switch assembly or the electrical
circuit is working properly in case of brake light failure.
Control Cables
Inspection and lubrication
Inspect throttle and brake cables frequently. Lubricate the inner cable and the cable ends. Replace
damaged cables when they are discovered. Submersion of the vehicle may cause cables to corrode
or stick. If the cables do not operate smoothly, ask your dealer to replace them.
NOTE:
Recommended lubricant: SAE 10W-30 or a commercially available cable lubricant.
