Master Cylin der - Brak e Fluid Level Check
Check the fluid level in the master cylind er immediately
if the brake system warning light ind icates system fail-
ure.
Use only manu factu rers recom mend ed brake fluid. Refer
to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genu ine Parts” for the correct
fluid typ e.
NOTE: If you r vehicle is equ ipped with a Manual
tran saxle , the Brake Fluid Reservoir supplies fluid to
both the Brake System and the Clutch Release System .
The two system s are separated in the reservoir and a leak
in one system will not affect the other system . The
Manual Transaxle Clutch Release System shou ld not
requ ire fluid rep lacem ent during the life of the vehicle. If
the Brake Fluid Reservoir is low, and the brake system
does not ind icate any leaks or other problem s, it may be
a resu lt of a leak in the Hydrau lic Clutch Release System .
See you r local authorized dealer for service.
Check the fluid level in the master cylind er when per-
form ing und erhood services.
Clean the top of the master cylind er area before rem oving
the cap. If necessary, add fluid to bring the fluid level up
to the requ irem ents described on the brake fluid reser-
voir.
Overfilling of fluid is not recom mend ed becau se it may
cause leaking in the system .
Fluid level can be expected to fall as the brake pads wear.
Brake fluid level shou ld be checked when pads are
rep laced . However, low fluid level may be caused by a
leak and a checku p may be need ed.
Use only manu factu rers recom mend ed brake fluid, refer
to Fluids, Lubricants and Genu ine Parts for correct fluid
typ e.
