STANDARD PROCEDURE
MASTER CYLINDER FLUID LEVEL
Always clean the master cylinder reservoir and cap
before adding fluid. This will prevent dirt from falling in
the reservoir and contaminating the brake fluid.
The reservoir (2) has a MIN" and a "MAX" mark (1)
on the side. Always fill to the "MAX" mark.
SPECIFICATIONS
BRAKE FLUID
CAUTION: Never use reclaimed brake fluid or fluid from a container which has been left open. An open
container of brake fluid will absorb moisture from the air and contaminate the fluid.
CAUTION: Never use any type of a petroleum-based fluid in the brake hydraulic system. Use of such type
fluids will result in seal damage of the vehicle brake hydraulic system causing a failure of the vehicle brake
system. Petroleum based fluids would be items such as engine oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid,
etc.
Use brake fluid approved to MB 331.0, such as Mopar part number 0454925AC, or a DOT 4 brake fluid with: min-
imum dry boiling point (ERBP) 500°F, minimum wet boiling point (WERBP) 356°F, maximum viscosity 1500 mm2/s,
conforming to FMVSS 116 and ISO 4925.
