Brake fluid level
This should be checked frequently,
and immediately if you notice even
the slightest loss in braking efficien-
cy.
The level is checked while the vehi-
cle is on flat ground and the ignition
is off.
Level
5
It is normal for the level to drop as
the brake shoes become worn, but it
must never drop lower than the "MI-
NI" warning line.
If you wish to check the disc and
drum wear yourself, you should ob-
tain the document explaining the
checking procedure from the
manufacturer’s network or web site.
Topping up
After any operation on the hydraulic
circuit, a specialist must replace the
fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our
Technical Department (and taken
from a sealed container).
Replacement intervals
Refer to the maintenance document
for your vehicle.
If there is an abnormal or
repeated drop in the fluid
level, consult an approved
dealer.
Before carrying out any
action in the engine
compartment, you
must switch off the ig-
nition 🡺165 or 🡺168.
When working in the
engine compartment,
ensure that the wind-
screen wiper stalk is in
the park position.
Risk of injury.
When working close to
the combustion engine,
