The brake fluid level will drop slowly as the brakes wear, and will rise
when the brake components are replaced. Fluid levels between the
“MIN” and “MAX” lines are within the normal operating range; there
is no need to add fluid. If the fluid levels are below the “MIN” mark,
the performance of the systems could be compromised; the brake/
clutch operation could be spongy and gear change harder. Top-up
the recommended brake/clutch fluid till the “MAX” mark or contact
an Authorized Mahindra Dealer immediately.
Carefully clean the cap on the reservoir before you remove it and be
sure no debris fall in the reservoir. Do not keep the reservoir open
for longer than necessary to add brake fluid.
Use only brake/clutch fluid that meets Mahindra specifications.
Refer to ‘Lubricant and Capacities’ section.
Draining or changing of brake fluid should always be done by an
Authorized Mahindra Dealer.
14.5.7 Checking/Topping Power Steering Fluid
Check the power steering fluid level at the defined service intervals.
Refer to Maintenance Chart for details.
The fluid level should be checked if a leak is suspected, abnormal
noises are apparent, and/or the system is not functioning as
anticipated. Coordinate inspection efforts through an Authorized
Mahindra Dealer.
Driving vehicle with power steering fluid below minimum mark
will damage steering system.
Use only recommended power steering fluid. Do not use other
types of power steering fluids which may damage the power
steering system.
Fluid level in the reservoir should be checked on a level surface
with the engine OFF to prevent injury from moving parts and to
ensure accurate fluid level reading.
