Check of level of brake fluid

Surely use only those brake fluids which or are specified on a tank cover in this vehicle or are recommended in the user's guide delivered together with this vehicle. Use of any other liquid is strictly forbidden. Liquid level in a tank has to be between the MIN and MAX lines on a tank.

PERFORMANCE ORDER

If when driving the lamp of the alarm system lights up from time to time, fill up liquid level to the MAX line.

When liquid level quickly decreases, examine the brake system whether there is no leak. Eliminate leaks, and then again fill a tank to the specified level.

Do not use the damping liquid or any other liquid containing mineral oil. Do not use canisters which were used for mineral oil or canisters, wet from water, earlier.

Mineral oil can become the reason of swelling and loss of a form of rubber elements of the hydraulic brake system, and the water mixed with brake fluid will lower a liquid boiling point. You hold all canisters for liquid closed to avoid a possibility of pollution of liquid.
