Brake and clutch (if so equipped) fluid
For further brake and clutch fluid specification information, refer to “Capacities and recommended fuel/lubricants” in the “Technical and consumer information” section of this manual.
● Use only new fluid from a sealed container.
Old, inferior or contaminated fluid may damage the brake and clutch (if so equipped) systems. The use of improper fluids can damage the brake and clutch system and affect the vehicle’s stopping ability.
● Clean the filler cap before removing.
● Brake and clutch fluid is poisonous and should be stored carefully in marked containers out of reach of children.
Do not spill the fluid on any painted surfaces.
This will damage the paint. If fluid is spilled, immediately wash the surface with water.
