The brake fluid reservoir is located on top of the master cylinder. Although no special procedures are needed to fill the fluid, the reservoir cap and surrounding area must be wiped clean of all dirt and debris before removing the cap. The slightest amount of dirt in the fluid can cause a system malfunction. Use only DOT 3 or 4 fluid from a sealed container. Use of old, polluted or non-approved fluid can seriously impair the function of the system.
The fluid level must be kept between the MAX and MIN lines at all times. Do not overfill beyond the MAX line; fluid spillage may result.
