Hot: Vehicle has been driven around 50 mph (80 km/h) for 20
minutes, or slightly longer in cold temperatures. (Fluid tem-
perature, 140°F - 175°F [60°C - 80°C])
Cold: Engine has not been run for about 5 hours. (Room tempera-
ture, 50°F - 85°F [10°C - 30°C])
■ If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to go down slightly as the brake pads
wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent refilling, it may indicate a serious problem.
