Checking Brake Fluid LevelNBBR0006ICheck fluid level in reservoir tank. It should be between Max
and Min lines on reservoir tank.
IIf fluid level is extremely low, check brake system.
IIf the brake warning lamp comes on, check brake fluid level
switch and parking brake switch.
SBR389C
Checking Brake LineNBBR0007CAUTION:
If leakage occurs around joints, retighten or, if necessary,
replace damaged parts.
1. Check brake lines (tubes and hoses) for cracks, deterioration
or other damage. Replace any damaged parts.
2. Check for oil leakage by fully depressing brake pedal while
engine is running.

Changing Brake FluidNBBR0008CAUTION:
IRefill with new brake fluid ªDOT 3º.
IAlways keep fluid level higher than minimum line on res-
ervoir tank.
INever reuse drained brake fluid.
IBe careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
1. Clean inside of reservoir tank, and refill with new brake fluid.
2. Connect a vinyl tube to each air bleeder valve.
3. Drain brake fluid from each air bleeder valve by depressing
brake pedal.
4. Refill until brake fluid comes out of each air bleeder valve.
Use same procedure as in bleeding hydraulic system to refill
brake fluid.
