292 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with a manual
transaxle, the Brake Fluid Reservoir supplies fluid to both
the Brake System and the Clutch Release System. The
two systems are separated in the reservoir and a leak in
one system will not affect the other system. If the Brake
Fluid Reservoir is low, and the brake system does not
indicate any leaks or other problems, it may be a result of
a leak in the Hydraulic Clutch Release System. See your
local authorized dealer for service.

Use only manufacturers recommended brake fluid, refer

for correct fluid type.
