Brake/clutch
fluid reservoir
Brake and clutch fluid systems are
supplied from the same reservoir.
The level of the fluid must lie
between the MIN and MAX marks
on the side of the reservoir. If the
level falls below the MIN mark, the
brake fluid level warning light on
the instrument panel will
illuminate. Add only DOT 3 or
DOT 4 brake fluid that meets the
Ford specification (see the
Capacities and specifications
chapter).
If you use DOT 5 or any
other brake fluid that is not
DOT 3 or DOT 4, you will cause
permanent damage to your
brakes.
Brake fluid is toxic.
Do not let the reservoir for
the master cylinder run dry.
This may cause the brakes to fail.
Windshield
washer system
If necessary, add enough washer
fluid to fill the reservoir. Follow the
instructions on the washer fluid
container.
Do not put engine coolant in
the container for the
windshield washer fluid.
