Checking the brake fluid level
The brake fluid is checked at the intervals given in the serv-
ice schedule.

– Read off the fluid level at the transparent brake fluid reservoir. It
should always be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks.
The position of the brake fluid reservoir is shown in the corresponding en-
gine compartment illustration ⇒ p age 281. The brake fluid reservoir has a
black and yellow cap.
The brake fluid level drops slightly when the vehicle is being used as the
brake pads are automatically adjusted as they wear.
However, if the level goes down noticeably in a short time, or drops below
the "MIN" mark, there may be a leak in the brake system. A display on the
instrument panel will warn you if the brake fluid level is too low ⇒ p age 76.
