Checking and adding brake fluid

Brake fluid should be checked and
refilled as needed. Refer to the
scheduled maintenance guide for
the service interval schedules.

1. Clean the reservoir cap before
removal to prevent dirt or water
from entering the reservoir.

2. Visually inspect the fluid level.

3. If necessary, add brake fluid from
a clean un-opened container until
the level reaches MAX. Do not fill
above this line.

4. Use only a DOT 3 brake fluid
certified to meet Ford specification ESA-M6C25–A. Refer to Lubricant
specifications
in this chapter.

Brake fluid is toxic. If brake fluid contacts the eyes, flush eyes
with running water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if

irritation persists. If taken internally, drink water and induce vomiting.
Seek medical attention immediately.
