Checking the brake fluid level
Before riding, check that the brake fluid is above
the minimum level mark. Check the brake fluid lev-
el with the top of the reservoir level. Replenish the
brake fluid if necessary.
WARNING
EWB02720
Improper maintenance can result in loss of
braking ability. Observe these precautions:
●
Insufficient brake fluid may allow air to enter
the brake system, reducing braking perfor-
mance.
●
Clean the filler cap before removing. Use
only DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed contain-
er.
●
Use only the specified brake fluid; otherwise,
the rubber seals may deteriorate, causing
leakage.
●
Refill with the same type of brake fluid. Add-
ing a brake fluid other than DOT 4 may result
in a harmful chemical reaction.
●
Be careful that water does not enter the
brake fluid reservoir when refilling. Water
will significantly lower the boiling point of
the fluid and may result in vapor lock.
NOTICE
ECB01160
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces or
plastic parts. Always clean up spilled fluid im-
mediately.
As the brake pads wear, it is normal for the brake
fluid level to gradually go down. A low brake fluid
level may indicate worn brake pads and/or brake
system leakage; therefore, be sure to check the
