Checking the brake fluid level
WARNING
Lack of maintenance of the braking system can increase the risk of accidents. If you notice any
anomaly in the working of the braking system, go immediately to a Benelli Q.J. Authorized
Workshop. Wherever you suspect that can exsist a serious failure of the braking system, stop
immediately the motorcycle and call the nearest Benelli Q.J. Authorized Workshop.
Never use your motorcycle if the fluid level is below the MIN mark. The brakes may fail to properly
operate, which could lead to an accident. If the brake fluid level is below the MIN mark, you must
have it topped up by an authorized Benelli Q.J. dealer.

The level of the brake fluid decreases as the brake pads wear down. Ensure that the fluid level is always between the
MAX and MIN marks. If the level falls below the MIN mark, contact a Benelli Q.J. authorized service center and have
the brake system overhauled.
Have the topping up of the brake fluid performed only by Benelli Q.J. authorized service center.
Brake fluid is highly toxic. Avoid contact and ingestion. Keep brake fluid out of reach of children and domestic
animals. In the event of a brake fluid ingestion, immediately call a doctor and do not cause vomiting, in order to
avoid inhalation of brake fluid in lungs. If the brake fluid comes in touch with your skin or eyes, immediately wash
with water.
Use only the brake fluid specified in the table lubricants and fluids of this manual.
Mixing different brake fluids can cause a dangerous chemical reaction, as well as the decrease of the braking
efficiency, with subsequent increase of the risk of accidents.
An insufficient amount of brake fluid may allow the introduction of air in the braking system. This could compromise
the effectiveness of the braking system, with subsequent increase of the risk of accidents.
Presence of air in the braking system can be identified in the moment you feel a characteristic "spongy effect" while
pushing the brake pedal. In this case, have a braking system bleeding performed by an authorized Benelli Q.J.
dealer before riding your motorcycle again.
