The brake reservoir is mounted on the master brake cylinder on the left side of the engine compartment near the front shield.
Caution: Take precautions when working with brake fluid, as it is toxic. It is unacceptable for brake fluid to come into contact with wires, plastic or painted body parts, so always use clean rags when adding brake fluid.
If brake fluid gets on these parts, wipe them off immediately.
1. Check the brake fluid level in the brake reservoir. When the plug is removed, it should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the tank body. With the plug installed, the brake fluid level should be at the lower edge of the filler neck, as the brake fluid is displaced by the level sensor float.
Attention! A gradual decrease in the brake fluid level in the absence of leaks most likely indicates the need to replace the brake pads.
2. Unscrew the brake fluid reservoir cap and place it on a clean cloth. Be careful: brake fluid may drip from the float.
3. Add brake fluid up to the "MAX" mark. Screw in the brake reservoir cap.
4. Check the operation of the brake fluid level sensor. Turn on the ignition, then press the button on the brake reservoir cap. The brake fluid level warning light should come on on the instrument panel. If the brake fluid level drop lamp does not light, contact a specialist at a car service center: most likely, the sensor is faulty.
