If the fluid level falls markedly in a short length of time, it indi-
cates leaks from the brake system.
If this occurs, we recommend you to have the vehicle checked.
Recommended fluid
Use brake fluid conforming to DOT3 or DOT4. The brake fluid
is hygroscopic. Too much moisture in the brake fluid will
adversely affect the brake system and clutch system, reducing
the performance.
The brake fluid reservoir uses a special cap to prevent air from
entering the reservoir. Do not remove the cap.
Power steering fluid
E01001100237
To check the fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir while the engine is idling.
Check to make certain that the power steering fluid level is
always between the “MAX” and “MIN” level markings on the
fluid reservoir and refill the fluid, if necessary.
Recommended fluid
Use “ATF DEXRON III or DEXRON II”.
CAUTION
!
● Take care in handling brake fluid as it is harmful to
the eyes, may irritate your skin and also damage to
painted surfaces.
● Use only the specified brake fluid.
Also, the additives in different brands may result in
a chemical reaction when mixed together, so avoid
mixing different brands.
● Normally, keep the reservoir tank cap closed to pre-
vent the brake fluid from deteriorating.
