BRAKE FLUID

Inspection

INFOID:0000000009364990

BRAKE FLUID LEVEL

• Check that the fluid level in the reservoir tank is within the specified

range between the MAX – MIN lines as shown.

• Visually check for any brake fluid leaks around the reservoir tank.

• Check the brake system for any leaks if the fluid level is extremely

low (lower than MIN).

• Check the brake system for fluid leaks if the warning lamp remains

illuminated even after the parking brake is released.

• Check the reservoir tank for the mixing of foreign matter (e.g. dust)

and oils other than brake fluid.

BRAKE LINE

1. Check brake tubes and hoses for cracks, deterioration or other

damage. Replace any damaged parts.

2. Check for brake fluid leaks by fully depressing brake pedal while

engine is running.

CAUTION:

Retighten the applicable connection to the specified torque

and repair any abnormal (damaged, worn or deformed) part

if any brake fluid leaks are present.

Draining

INFOID:0000000009364991

CAUTION:

• Do not spill or splash brake fluid on painted surfaces. Brake fluid may seriously damage paint. Wipe

it off immediately and wash with water if it gets on a painted surface.

• Turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery

negative terminal before performing work.

1. Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder valve.
2. Depress the brake pedal and loosen the bleeder valve to gradu-

ally discharge brake fluid.

Refilling

INFOID:0000000009364992

CAUTION:

• Turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery

negative terminal before performing work.

• Do not spill or splash brake fluid on painted surfaces. Brake fluid may seriously damage paint. Wipe

it off immediately and wash with water if it gets on a painted surface.

• Monitor the brake fluid level in the reservoir while performing the air bleeding procedure.

• Always use new brake fluid for refilling. Do not reuse drained brake fluid.

• Do not allow foreign matter (e.g. dust) and oils other than brake fluid to enter the reservoir tank.
