BRAKES

CHECK THE LEVEL OF THE FRONT
BRAKE FLUID
Check the level of the brake fl uid through
sight A. The level of the fl uid should never
fall below the mark in the sight.
RESTORING THE LEVEL OF THE
FRONT BRAKE FLUID
To restore the level of the brake fl uid, loosen
the two screws 1, lift cap 2 and add brake
fl uid until its level is 5 mm below the upper
rim of the reservoir.
WARNING
We recommend using DOT 4 brake fl uid.
Should this fl uid be unavailable, use DOT
5.1 fl uid instead. Do not on any account
use DOT 5 brake fl uid. This is a purple fl uid
with a base of silicone oil which requires
special seals and tubes.
WARNING
The brake fl uid is extremely corrosive. Take
care not to spill it on the paintwork.
