e braking and possible
brake failure.If this warning is displayed, release the park-ing brake.CAUTIONzIf this warning stays illuminated and doesnot go out while driving, there is a danger ofineffective braking. If this happens, immedi-ately park your vehicle in a safe place andwe recommend you to have it checked.

The fluid level is monitored by a float. Whenthe fluid level falls below the “MIN” mark,the brake fluid warning lamp lights up.The fluid level falls slightly with wear of thebrake pads, but this does not indicate anyabnormality.The fluid in the master cylinder should bechecked when doing other work under the
bonnet. The brake system should also bechecked for leaks at the same time.If the fluid level falls markedly in a shortlength of time, it indicates leaks from thebrake system.If this occurs, we recommend you to have thevehicle checked.Use brake fluid conforming to DOT3 orDOT4 from a sealed container. The brakefluid is hygroscopic. Too much moisture inthe brake fluid will adversely affect the brakesystem, reducing the performance.
