son, if the vehicle is mainly used in areas with a high de-
gree of atmospheric humidity, the fluid should be replaced
at more frequent intervals than specified in the “Scheduled

BRAKE FLUID fig. 218
Undo the cap A and check that the liquid contained in the
reservoir is at the maximum level.
Fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the MAX
mark.
Use the brake fluid shown in the “Fluids and lubricants”
table (see “Technical Specifications”).
Note Carefully clean the cap of the reservoir A and the
surrounding surface.
Take great care that impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the cap is opened.
For topping up always use a funnel with integrated filter
that has a mesh inferior or equal to 0.12 mm.
Prevent brake fluid which is highly corrosive
from coming into contact with painted
parts. Should this occur, immediately wash
with water.
Brake fluid is poisonous and highly corro-
sive. In the event of accidental contact, im-
mediately wash the affected parts with water and
neutral soap. Then rinse thoroughly. If swallowed
call a doctor straight away.
WARNING
The symbol π on the container indicates
a synthetic brake fluids, which is different
from a mineral fluids. Use of a mineral type flu-
ids will damage the special rubber seals of the
braking system beyond repair.
