To get the right reading, the fluid

Windshield Washer Fluid (CONT.)
Brake Master Cylinder
Your brake master cylinder is here. It is
filled with DOT-3 brake fluid.
Your vehicle is equipped with either Standard Power Brakes or the Anti-
Lock Brake System.
There are only two reasons why the
brake fluid level in your master cylinder
might go down. The first
is that the
brake fluid goes down to an acceptable
level during normal brake lining wear.
When new linings are put in, the fluid
level goes back up. The other
reason is that fluid is leaking
out of the brake system. If it is, you
should have your brake system fixed, since a leak means that sooner or later
your brakes won’t work well, or won’t
work at all.
So, it isn’t a good idea to “top off’ your
brake fluid. Adding brake fluid won’t correct a leak. If you add fluid when
your linings are worn, then you’ll have
too much fluid when you get new brake
linings. You should add (or remove)
brake fluid, as necessary, only when
work is done on the brake hydraulic
system.

If you have too much brake
fluid, it can spill on the
engine. The fluid will burn
if the
engine is hot enough. You or others
could be burned, and your vehicle
could be damaged. Add brake fluid
only when work is done on the
brake hydraulic system.
? I
When your brake fluid falls to a low
level,
your brake warning light will
come on. See the Index under Brake
System Warning Light.
What to Add
When you do need brake fluid, use only
DOT-3 brake fluid-such as Deko
Supreme
11* (GM Part No. 1052535).
Use new brake fluid from a sealed
container
only.
