The compensation tank is transparent, so that the liquid level can always be checked. It is recommended to take a look at the expansion tank every 4 weeks.
- With the cap closed, the brake fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the -MAX- mark. When the level drops below the mark -A-, the control lamp lights up on the instrument panel. 1 - brake fluid level sensor connector, 4 - brake master cylinder.
- Add only new brake fluid specification SAE J 1703, DOT 3 or DOT 4.
- As the brake pads wear, the brake fluid level drops. This is fine.
- A significant drop in the brake fluid level within a short time is due to fluid leakage.
- The place of leakage must be immediately localized and eliminated. As a rule, the cause of leakage is in worn cuffs of wheel brake cylinders. It is safer to have a complete check of the brake system at a service station.
