Brake Fluid Level
The fluid level in the brake fluid reser- voir should be checked periodically.The level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. If the level is at or belowthe "MIN" mark, fluid should be added having carefully cleaned the area sur- rounding the reservoir cap to ensurethat dirt is not allowed to enter the system. It should be noted that the brake fluid level will decrease slightlyas the friction linings of the pads and shoes become worn and that this is a normal condition. WARNING:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and
should never be stored in an un-sealed container. The presence ofwater in the braking system will cause vapour locks and increase the possibility of brake fade alongwith promoting corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must be changed at the specifiedtime or mileage interval to ensure continued safe operation of the system. Brake fluid will cause rapidand serious damage to paintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, the affected area must be rinsed withwater immediately. Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the eyes or to be ingestedand ensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of chil- dren. The clutch fluid level in the mastercylinder should be checked when per-forming other under bonnet checks. The system should be checked for leakage at the same time. Ensure that the clutch fluid level is always between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir.Fill as required. Fluid loss indicates a leak in the clutch system which should be inspected and repaired immedi-ately.
