Under normal circumstances, your vehicle should not use up
brake fluid rapidly. However, expect the level of the brake fluid
to slowly fall as you put more mileage on your vehicle and the
brake pads wear.
Check the brake fluid at least once a year. You can do this by
looking at the fluid level in the plastic brake fluid reservoir on
the master cylinder. The fluid level should be at or near the
MAX mark.
Brake fluid is toxic.
If brake fluid contacts eyes, flush eyes with running water for
15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation persists. If taken
internally, drink water and induce vomiting. Get medical
attention immediately.
If the fluid is low, carefully clean and remove the filler cap
from the reservoir. Fill the reservoir to the MAX line with Ford
High Performance DOT 3 Brake Fluid C6AZ-19542-AA or DOT
3 equivalent fluid meeting Ford specification ESA-M6C25-A.
If you use a brake fluid that is not DOT 3, you will
cause permanent damage to your brakes.
Do not fill the reservoir above the MAX line.
If you find that the fluid level is excessively low — below the
seam or ridge on the outside of the plastic reservoir — have the
brake system inspected.
Do not let the reservoir for the master cylinder run dry.
This may cause the brakes to fail.
