Checking the brake fluid level
Before starting off, check that the brake fluid
is above the minimum level mark. Check the
brake fluid level with the top of the reservoir
level. Replenish the brake fluid if necessary.
WARNING
EWB02721
Improper maintenance can result in loss of
braking ability. Observe these precau-
tions:
 Insufficient brake fluid may allow air to
enter the brake system, reducing brak-
ing performance.
 Clean the filler cap before removing. Use
only DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed
container.
 Use only the specified brake fluid; other-
wise, the rubber seals may deteriorate,
causing leakage.
 Refill with the same type of brake fluid.
Adding a brake fluid other than DOT 4
may result in a harmful chemical reac-
tion.
 Be careful that water does not enter the
brake fluid reservoir when refilling. Wa-
ter will significantly lower the boiling
point of the fluid and may result in vapor
lock.
