Maintenance and Service11
1) “MAX” level line2) “MIN” level line
Visually check the fluid level of the reser-
voir monthly on the even surface. Be sure
to check the clutch fluid level from the
outside of the reservoir. If the fluid level is
below “MIN”, top up clutch fluid to “MAX”.
Use only clutch fluid from a sealed
container.■
Recommended Clutch Fluid
Refer to "Fluids" P383.
11-16. Brake BoosterThe brake booster utilizes the vacuum
produced by the vacuum pump to reduce
the force required to depress the brake
pedal.
The vacuum in the brake booster may be
insufficient if the brake pedal is depressed
when the engine is stopped or after the
vehicle has been parked for a long period
of time. It such cases, it is necessary to
depress the brake pedal using greater
force than usual.
 Never splash the clutch fluid over
painted surfaces or rubber parts.
Alcohol containe d in the clutch
fluid may damage them. Be careful not to spill clutch fluid
when adding it. If clutch fluid
touches the exhaust pipe, it may
cause a bad smell, smoke, and/or
a fire. If clutch fluid gets on the
exhaust pipe, be sure to wipe it
off.Check the fluid level for the clutch
system at the inboard side of the
reservoir. You cannot check the
fluid level at the outboard side of
the reservoir.

CAUTION
Never use different brands of clutch
fluid together. Also, avoid mixing
DOT 3 and DOT 4 brake fluids even
if they are the same brand.
