qAdding Brake/Clutch Fluid

WARNING

Spilled Brake Fluid:

Spilled brake fluid is dangerous. If it

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. Be careful not to spill brake fluid

on yoursel f or on the engine.

Low Brake/Clutch Fluid Levels:

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 you find a low fluid

level, have the brakes and clutch

inspected.

If the fluid level is low, add fluid until it

reaches MAX.

Before adding fluid, thoroughly clean the

area around the cap.

Brake and clutch fluid will damage

painted surfaces. If brake or clutch

fluid does get on a painted surface,

wipe it off immediately.

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.
