Brake and Clutch Fluid

There is a brake and clutch fluid reservoir on
the vehicle. The brake and clutch fluid is
moisture-absorbing, and the fluid with
excessive water content will reduce the
efficiency of the hydraulic brake/clutch system.
Replace the fluid as per the instruction in the
Manual to avoid corrosion of the hydraulic
system.
Be sure to use the brake/clutch fluid
recommended by MG Motor. Add fluid into
the reservoir to reach a proper level. The fluid
level shall not be lower than the MIN
(minimum) mark or higher than the MAX
(maximum) mark.
The cause of excessive low brake fluid level
may be leakage of brake system or normal
wear of brake pad/lining. Please contact the
MG Authorised Service Center to ensure that
whether the system needs to be repaired. If
repairs are necessary, add fluid after repair of
hydraulic braking system. When the brake
fluid level is lower than the lower limit, the
braking system warning lamp " " will be on.
Refer to "Braking System/EBD Warning
Lamp" in Chapter "Instrument and Control
Device".
