Observe these precautions:
1. When checking the fluid level, make
sure the top of the master cylinder res-
ervoir is level by turning the handle-
bars.
2. Use only the designated quality brake
fluid. Otherwise, the rubber seals may
deteriorate, causing leakage and poor
brake performance.
Recommended brake fluid: DOT 4
3. Refill with the same type of brake fluid.
Mixing fluids may result in a harmful
chemical reaction and lead to poor
brake performance.
4. Be careful that water does not enter
the master cylinder reservoir when re-
filling. Water will significantly lower
the boiling point of the fluid and may
result in vapor lock.
