Maintenance
WARNING
Brake fluid
When changing and adding brake fluid,
handle it carefully. Do not let it come in
contact with your eyes. If brake fluid
should come in contact with your eyes,
immediately flush them with a large
quantity of fresh tap water. Have your
eyes examined by a doctor as soon as
possible.
CAUTION
Do not allow brake fluid to contact the
vehicle's body paint, as paint damage
will result. Brake fluid, which has been
exposed to open air for an extended
time should never be used as its quality
cannot be guaranteed. It should be
properly disposed. Don't put in the
wrong kind of fluid. A few drops of min-
eral-based oil, such as engine oil, in your
brake system can damage brake system
parts.
