Checking Brake Fluid
You can check the brake fluid without taking off the cap.
Just look at the window on the brake fluid reservoir. The
fluid level should be above MIN. If it isn't, have your
brake system checked to see if there is a leak.
After work is done on the brake hydraulic system,
make sure the level is above MIN and below the top of
the window.
What to Add
When you do need brake fluid, use only DOT-3 brake
fluid
--
such as Delco Supreme ll@ (GM
P a r t
No.
12377967). Use new brake fluid from a sealed
container only.
Always clean the brake fluid reservoir cap and the area
around the cap before removing it. This will help keep
dirt from entering the reservoir.
'
A
CAUTION:
With the wrong kind of fluid in your brake
system, your brakes may not work well,
or they
may not even work at all. This could cause a
crash. Always use the proper brake fluid.
