When your brake fluid falls
to a low level, your brake
warning light will come on.
See “Brake System Warning
What to Add
When you do need brake fluid, use only
DOT-3
brake
fluid
--
such as Delco Supreme
ll@
(GM
Part
No.
12377967).
Use new brake fluid from a sealed
container only.
Always clean the brake fluid reservoir cap and the area
around the cap before removing
it.
This
will help keep
dirt
from entering the reservoir.
With the wrong kind of fluid in your brake
system, your brakes may not work
well,
or they
may not even work
at
all. This could cause
a
crash. Always use the proper brake fluid.
NOTICE:
a
a
Using the wrong fluid can badly damage
brake system parts. For example, just a few
drops
of
mineral-based oil, such
as
engine
oil, in your brake system can damage brake
system parts
so
badly that they’ll have to be
replaced. Don’t let someone put in the
wrong kind
of
fluid.
If
you spill brake fluid on
your
vehicle’s
painted surfaces, the paint finish
can
be
damaged. Be
careful
not
to
spill brake fluid on
your vehicle.
If
you do, wash it
off
immediately.
