Maintenance and service/Brake booster
Check the fluid level monthly.
Check the fluid level on the outside of the
reservoir. Because this reservoir is used
for both the brake and clutch systems and
has chambers for each system, be sure to
check the fluid level for the clutch system
at the inboard side of the reservoir
(shaded area in the illustration). If the fluid
level is below MIN, add the recom-
mended clutch fluid to MAX.
Use only clutch fluid from a sealed
container.
& Recommended clutch fluid
Refer to Fluids F12-7.
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.

described in the following, have it checked

several times, applying the same pedal
force each time. The distance the pedal
travels should not vary.
