4. If the fluid level is low, remove the cover screws and add fluid to the fill line.
Do not overfill. Use DOT 4 brake fluid only.
5. Reinstall the cover. Torque screws to 7 in-lbs (1 N·m).
WARNING
Never store or use a partial bottle of brake fluid. Brake fluid is hygroscopic,
meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. The moisture causes the
boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake
fade and the possibility of brake failure, which could result in an accident. After
opening a bottle of brake fluid, always discard any unused portion.
