Brake/Clutch Fluid

q

Inspecting Brake/Clutch Fluid Level

The brakes and clutch draw fluid from the

same reservoir.

Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir

regularly. It should be kept at MAX.

The level normally drops with

accumulated distance, a condition

associated with wear of brake and clutch

linings. If it is excessively low, have the

brake/clutch system inspected by an

Authorized Mazda Dealer.

qAdding Brake/Clutch Fluid

WARNING

Be car eful not to spill brake fluid on

yourself or on the engine:

Spilled brake fluid is dangerous. If it

gets in your eyes, they could be

seriously injured. If this happens,

immediately flush your eyes with

water and get medical attention.

Brake fluid spilled on a hot engine

could cause a fire.

If the brake/clutch fluid level is low,

have the brakes and clutch inspected:

Low brake/clutch fluid levels are

dangerous. Low levels could signal

brake lining wear or a brake system

leak. Your brakes could fail and

cause an accident.

If the fluid level is low, add fluid until it

reaches MAX.

Before adding fluid, thoroughly clean the

area around the cap.

CAUTION

Ø Brake and clutch fluid will

damage painted surfaces. If brake

or clutc h fluid does get on a

painted surface, wash it off with

water immediately.

Ø Using nonspecified brake and

clutch fluids (page 10-4) will

damage the systems. Mixing

different fluids will also damage

them.

If the brake/clutch system

frequently requires new fluid,

consult an Authorized Mazda

Dealer.
