7–12 SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
BRAKE FLUID
The fluid level in the brake fluid tank should
be checked according to the “Maintenance
Schedule”.
Before checking the fluid level, clean the
area around the tank cap thoroughly. The
fluid level in the brake tank must not be
higher than MAX mark or lower than MIN
mark.
If the level falls below the MIN mark, add
the fluid to MAX mark. Do not overfill.
Low fluid level can indicate a leak in the
brake system. Have the system checked
at nearest Ssangyong Dealer.
To add the brake fluid, first wipe away dirts
and then unscrew the fluid tank cap. After
removing the cap, top up the fluid to the
MAX mark and tighten the cap securely af-
terwards.
