Brake fluid level

Check the brake fluid level. Add fluid if
necessary. (See pages 8-32—8-33.)
Recommended brake fluid: DOT 4

Brake fluid leakage

Check to see if any brake fluid is leaking out
of the pipe joints or brake fluid reservoirs.
Apply the brakes firmly for one minute. If the
lever moves slowly inward, there may be a
leak in the brake system. If there is any
leakage, the brake system should be
inspected by a dealer.

Brake operation

Test the brakes at slow speed after starting
out to make sure they are working properly. If
the brakes do not provide proper braking
performance, inspect the brake pads for
wear.(See page 8-32—8-33)
