CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
1.Stand the scooter on a level surface.
NOTE:
• Place the scooter on a suitable stand.
• Make sure the scooter is upright.
• In order to ensure a correct reading of the
brake fluid level, make sure the top of the
reservoir is horizontal.
2.Check:
brake fluid level
Below the minimum level mark
recommended brake fluid to the proper level.
Recommended brake fluid
DOT #3 or DOT #4
WARNING
• Use only the designated brake fluid. Other
brake fluids may cause the rubber seals to
deteriorate, causing leakage and poor brake
performance.
• Refill with the same type of brake fluid that
is already in the system. Mixing brake fluids
may result in a harmful chemical reaction,
leading to poor brake performance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the reservoir. Water will
significantly lower the boiling point of the
brake fluid and could cause vapor lock.
CAUTION:
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean up
any spilt brake fluid immediately.
