Level 2
It is normal for the level to drop as the 
brake shoes become worn, but it must 
never drop lower than the “MINI" warn-
ing line.
If you wish to check the disc and drum 
wear yourself, you should obtain the 
document explaining the checking pro-
cedure from the manufacturer’s net-
work or web site.
Topping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the brake 
fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our 
Technical Department (and taken from 
a sealed container).
Replacement interval
Refer to the Maintenance Document for 
your vehicle.
Brake fluid level
The level should be read with the engine 
switched off and on level ground.
This should be checked frequently, 
and immediately if you notice even the 
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
LEVELS (2/3)
2
The engine may be hot 
when carrying out opera-
tions in close proximity. In 
addition, the engine cooling 
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Consult your approved dealer at 
once if you notice an abnormal or 
repeated drop in any of the fluid 
levels.
