Brake Fluid Level, Checking At Inspection Service
Brake fluid level must always be evaluated depending on brake pad wear.
During operation of the vehicle, the brakes are automatically readjusted depending on wear of the brake pads. Because of the adjustment, brake fluid level will be slightly lower as a result.
- Recommended brake fluid level when brake pad wear limit is nearly reached:
"At MIN-marking and slightly above it", "NO TOPPING OFF REQUIRED".
- Recommended brake fluid level when brake pads are new or are far removed from the brake pad wear limit:
"Between the MIN and MAX marks".
WARNING:
If brake fluid level is below MIN mark, check brake system "repair procedure", before adding brake fluid.
