Washer fluid
E01000700672
The windscreen washer fluid reservoir
is in the en-
gine compartment.
Check the washer fluid level at regular intervals
and add washer fluid to reservoir if necessary. NOTE
l The
washer fluid container serves

the wind-
screen and headlamps (if so equipped).
During cold weather
To ensure proper operation of the washers at low
temperatures, use a fluid containing an anti-freez-
ing agent. Brake fluid
E01000900687
To check the fluid level
Check the brake fluid level in the reservoir.
The brake fluid level must

be between the “MAX”
and “MIN” marks on the reservoir. The brake fluid level is monitored by a float. When
the brake fluid level
falls

below the “MIN” mark,
the brake fluid warning lamp lights up.
The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the brake
pads, but this does not indicate any abnormality.
If the brake fluid level falls markedly in a short
length of time, it indicates leaks from the brake sys-
tem.
If this occurs, we recommend you to have the vehi-
cle checked.
Fluid type
Use brake fluid conforming to DOT3 or DOT4.
The brake fluid is hygroscopic. Too much moisture
in the brake fluid will adversely affect the brake sys-
tem, reducing the brake performance. In addition, the brake fluid reservoir is equipped
with a special cap
to

prevent the entrance of air,
and this cap should not be removed. CAUTION
l
Take care in handling
brake
fluid as it is
harmful to the eyes, may irritate your
skin and also damage painted surfaces.
l Use only the specified brake fluid.
Do not mix or add different brands of
brake fluid to prevent chemical reactions.
Do not let any petroleum-based fluid
touch, mix with, or get into the brake fluid.
This will damage the seals.
l Keep the reservoir tank cap closed to pre-
vent the brake fluid from deteriorating ex-
cept maintenance.
l Clean the filler cap before removing and
close the cap securely after maintenance. Maintenance
