Checking Power Steering Fluid - Toyota TUNDRA 2004 Owner's Manual

Refilling brake fluid:
1. Turn the ignition switch off.
2. Depress the brake pedal more than 40
times.
3. Remove the reservoir cover by hand.
Add brake fluid up to the "MAX" line.
If you do not follow the procedure above,
the reservoir may overflow.
Use only newly opened brake fluid. Once
opened, brake fluid absorbs moisture from
the air, and excess moisture can cause a
dangerous loss of braking.
CAUTION
Take care when filling the reservoir
because brake fluid can harm your
eyes and damage painted surfaces. If
fluid gets in your eyes, flush your
eyes with clean water immediately. If
you still feel uncomfortable with your
eyes, go to the doctor.

NOTICE
If you spill the fluid, be sure to wash
it off with water to prevent it from
damaging the parts or paint.
