Add enough fluid to bring the level up to the
requirements described on the brake fluid res-
ervoir. With disc brakes, fluid level can be
expected to fall as the brake pads wear. How-
ever, low fluid level may be caused by a leak
and a checkup may be needed.
Use only manufacturer's recommended brake
fluid. Refer to "Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine
Parts" in "Maintaining Your Vehicle" for further
information.
WARNING!
• Use only manufacturer's recommended
brake fluid. Refer to "Fluids, Lubricants,
and Genuine Parts" in "Maintaining Your
Vehicle" for further information. Using the
wrong type of brake fluid can severely
damage your brake system and/or impair
its performance. The proper type of brake
fluid for your vehicle is also identified on
the original factory installed hydraulic mas-
ter cylinder reservoir.

WARNING! (Continued)
• To avoid contamination from foreign matter
or moisture, use only new brake fluid or
fluid that has been in a tightly closed
container. Keep the master cylinder reser-
voir cap secured at all times. Brake fluid in
a open container absorbs moisture from
the air resulting in a lower boiling point.
This may cause it to boil unexpectedly
during hard or prolonged braking, resulting
in sudden brake failure. This could result in
a collision.
• Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can
result in spilling brake fluid on hot engine
parts, causing the brake fluid to catch fire.
Brake fluid can also damage painted and
vinyl surfaces, care should be taken to
avoid its contact with these surfaces.
• Do not allow petroleum based fluid to
contaminate the brake fluid. Brake seal
components could be damaged, causing
partial or complete brake failure. This
could result in a collision.

Automatic Transmission
Selection Of Lubricant
It is important to use the proper transmission
fluid to ensure optimum transmission perfor-
mance and life. Use only the manufacturer's
specified transmission fluid. Refer to "Fluids,
Lubricants, and Genuine Parts" in this section
for fluid specifications. It is important to maintain
the transmission fluid at the correct level using
the recommended fluid. No chemical flushes
should be used in any transmission; only the
approved lubricant should be used.
CAUTION!
Using a transmission fluid other than the
manufacturer's recommended fluid may
cause deterioration in transmission shift
quality and/or torque converter shudder, and
will require more frequent fluid and filter
changes. Refer to "Fluids, Lubricants, and
Genuine Parts" in this section for fluid speci-
fications.
