WARNING!

original factory installed hydraulic master cylinder
reservoir.

To avoid contamination from foreign matter or

moisture, use only new brake fluid or fluid that has
been in a tightly closed container. Keep the master
cylinder reservoir cap secured at all times. Brake
fluid in a open container absorbs moisture from the
air resulting in a lower boiling point. This may
cause it to boil unexpectedly during hard or pro-
longed braking, resulting in sudden brake failure.
This could result in a collision.

Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in

spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts, causing
the brake fluid to catch fire. Brake fluid can also
damage painted and vinyl surfaces, care should be
taken to avoid its contact with these surfaces.

WARNING!

(Continued)

Do not allow petroleum based fluid to contaminate

the brake fluid. Brake seal components could be
damaged, causing partial or complete brake failure.
This could result in a collision.

Use only brake fluid that has been in a tightly closed

container to avoid contamination from foreign matter or

moisture.

Clutch Hydraulic System (Manual Transmission)
— If Equipped

The clutch hydraulic system is fed by a segregated

volume of fluid within the brake system master cylinder

reservoir. In the event of leakage or wear, use only the

manufacturer’s recommended brake fluid. Refer to “Flu-

ids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintaining Your

Vehicle” for further information.
