'necking fluid level
Pe :orrect fluid level is essential to the sat-
:~=
:tory operation of the brake system. The
fc. Z level must always be between the
AX"
and "MIN" marks.
~- a "evel of fluid tends to sink slightly when
"a vehicle is used due to the automatic ad- ::ment of brake linings. This is quite nor-
-rwever, if the level sinks noticeably in a
srorttime or drops below the "MIN" mark
re system may be leaking. A low fluid level " the reservoir is indicated by the brake
w.arning lamp lighting up (see page 48 also), .nen this happens take car to a Volks
wagen dealer immediately and have the
cake system checked. Renewing brake fluid
Brake fluid absorbs moisture. In the course
of time it takes in water from the ambient
air. Too high a content of water in the brake
fluid can in time cause corrosion damage in
the system. Furthermore the boiling point of
the brake fluid is reduced considerably. For
this reason the brake fluid must be renewed every two years.
Attention
When the brake fluid becomes
too old vapour bubbles can form in the brake system when the
brakes are used hard. The
effi
ciency of the brakes and thus the
vehicle safety is then seriously
affected.
Only use our genuine brake fluio (see: - ra
tion to US standard FMVSS 116 DO~-
.
~-e
fluid must be new.
Attention Brake fluid is poisonous!
It must therefore only be stored in the closed original container
out of reach of children.
Remember also that brake fluid will
attack the paintwork. Because of the disposal
prob
lems,
the special tools necessary
and the specialist knowledge re
quired,
the brake fluid changing
should preferably be done by a
Volk
swagen
dealer.
It is advisable to have the fluid change car
ried out during an Inspection Service.
