Brake Fluid Change
Complete brake system fluid replacement should be performed only by trained service personnel. Have your
dealer replace the following components during periodic maintenance, or when they are damaged or leaking:
•
Replace the brake hoses every four ( 4 ) years.
An over-full master cylinder may cause brake drag or brake lockup, which could result in an accident
causing serious injury or death. Maintain brake fluid at the recommended level. Do not overfill.
Never store or use a partial bottle of brake fluid. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly absorbs
moisture from the air. The moisture causes the drop of boiling temperature of the brake fluid, which can
lead to early brake fade and the possibility of accident or severe injury. After opening a bottle of brake fluid,
always discard any unused portion�
Brake Light Operation
The brake light is activated by foot brake pedal pressure, and is properly working when the brake light comes
on just as braking takes effect. Check that the switch assembly or the electrical circuit is working properly in
case of brake light failure.
Suspension
Some front suspension components of the vehicle do not require maintenance or lubrication. Ensure these
components are cleaned regularly, and are not loose or damaged before operating the vehicle.
