Brake/clutch fluid (if equipped)
Checking the brake/clutch fluid
level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake/clutch fluid, clean
the area around the reservoir cap
thoroughly to prevent brake fluid
contamination.
Periodically check that the fluid level
in the brake fluid reservoir is
between MIN and MAX. The level will
fall with accumulated mileage. This
is a normal condition associated
with the wear of the brake linings.
If the fluid level is excessively low,
have the system checked by a pro
-
fessional workshop. Kia recom
