Liquid level check
The fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir must be between the MAX and MIN·marks. If the fluid level drops severely, check the brake system for leaks.
If the brake warning light comes on, check the fluid level sensor and the switch associated with the parking brake lever.
Checking the hydraulic system
1. Check the brake pipes and hoses for cracks, dents or other damage. Replace defective parts.
2. Check for fluid leaks when the brake pedal is fully depressed with the engine running.
Brake Fluid Replacement
1. Clean the inside of the master cylinder reservoir and fill it with new brake fluid.
2. Place clear vinyl tubes on each bleeder valve and lower them into a container of clean brake fluid.
3. Drain the old brake fluid through all valves while depressing the brake pedal.
4. Top up reservoir with new fluid until fluid comes out of each valve.
Follow the same procedure as described in section «Bleeding the hydraulic drive».
