BRAKE FLUID
AND CLUTCH FLUID
Checking and adding brake fluid
Brake fluid should be checked and
refilled as needed. Refer to the
Service Guide for the service
interval schedules.
Absolute hygiene must be observed
when topping up with brake fluid.
Any dirt entering the brake system
may cause loss of brake
performance. Do no expose brake
fluid to the atmosphere any longer
than is necessary.
Clean the reservoir cap before removal to prevent dirt or water from
entering the reservoir.
• Visually inspect the fluid level.
• If necessary, add brake fluid from
a clean unopened container until
the level reaches MAX. Do not fill
above this line.
• Use only a DOT 3 brake fluid
certified to meet Ford specification ESA-M6C25–A.
Do not allow brake fluid to make contact with the skin or eyes. If
this should happen, rinse the affected areas with plenty of water.
Brake fluid will damage paintwork. If splashed or spilt on a painted
surface, wash it off immediately with water.
