Therefore always safely store the coolant additive in its original container out
of the reach of children - risk of poisoning!
If any coolant splashes into your eyes, immediately rinse out your eyes with
■
clear water and contact a doctor as soon as possible.

Checking the brake fluid

ä
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 176.
The brake fluid reservoir is located in the engine compartment.

Switch off the engine.
›
Open the bonnet » page 177.

Check the level of brake fluid in the reservoir
Ð
tween the "MIN" and "MAX" markings.
When driving, a slight drop in the fluid level is caused by the wear-and-tear and
automatic adjustment of the brake pads, and is therefore perfectly normal.
There may be an indication of a leak in the brake system, however, if the fluid lev-
el drops significantly within a short time or if it drops below the "MIN" marking. If
the brake fluid level is too low, this is indicated by the indicator light
up in the instrument cluster » page
WARNING
Ð
If the fluid level has dropped below the MIN marking,
journey - risk of accident! Seek help from a ŠKODA specialist garage.
