your brake fluid. Adding brake fluid won't correct a
leak. If you add fluid when your linings are worn, then
you'll have too much fluid when you get new brake
linings. You should add (or remove) brake fluid, as
necessary, only when work is done on the brake
hydraulic system.
What
to
Add
When
you do need brake fluid, use only DOT-3 brake
fluid
-- such
as Delco Supreme 11*
(GM P a r t
No. 1052535). Use new brake fluid from a sealed
container only, and always clean the brake fluid
reservoir cap before removing it.
When your brake fluid falls to a low level, your brake
warning light will come on. See "Brake System Warning
Light" in the Index.

NOTICE:
Don't let someone put in the wrong kind of
fluid. For example, just a few drops of
mineral-based oil, such as engine oil, in
your brake system can damage brake
system parts so badly that they'll have to be
replaced.
Brake fluid can damage paint, so be careful
not to spill brake fluid on your vehicle. If
you do, wash it off immediately. See
"Appearance Care" in the Index.
