WARNING:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should
never be stored in an unsealed container.
The presence of water in the braking
system will cause vapour locks and in-
crease the possibility of brake fade along
with promoting corrosion within the brak-
ing system. The brake fluid must be
changed at the specified time or mileage
interval to ensure continued safe opera-
tion of the system. Brake fluid will cause
rapid and serious damage to paintwork. If
accidental spillage occurs, the affected
area must be rinsed with water immedi-
ately. Do not allow brake fluid to come
into contact with the eyes or to be in-
gested and ensure that fluid is safely
stored away form the reach of children.

The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder
should be checked when performing other un-
der bonnet checks. The system should be
checked for leakage at the same time.
Ensure that the clutch fluid level is always
between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings
on the fluid reservoir. Fill as required. Fluid
loss indicates a leak in the clutch system
which should be inspected and repaired im-
mediately.

or DOT 4 should be used. The reservoir cap
must be fully tightened to avoid contamination
from foreign matter or moisture.

Do not allow petroleum base fluid to
contaminate the brake fluid since damage
to the rubber seals of the system may
result.

damage to paintwork. If accidental spillage
occurs, the affected area must be rinsed
with water immediately. Do not allow brake
fluid to come into contact with the eyes or to
