WARNING!

Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in

spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts and the
brake fluid catching fire.

Use of a brake fluid that has a lower initial boiling

point than the recommended product or a brake
fluid that is unidentified as to FMVSS specifica-
tion may result in sudden brake failure during
hard prolonged braking. You could have an
accident.

Use only brake fluid that has been in a tightly closed
container to avoid contamination from foreign matter or
moisture.

CAUTION!

Do not allow petroleum-base fluid to contaminate
the brake fluid. Seal damage may result.

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
manufacturer’s recommended brake fluid. Refer to “Flu-
ids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in this section for the
correct fluid type.
