BRAKE FLUID
The brake fluid should be checked
and refilled according to the service
maintenance schedule in the
Scheduled Maintenance Guide.
1. Clean the reservoir cap before
removal.
2. Check the fluid level.
3. If necessary, add brake fluid from
a clean, unopened container. Do not
fill above the MAX line.
Note: use only a DOT 3 brake fluid
that meets Ford Motor Company
specifications.
Do not let the master
cylinder reservoir run dry.
This may cause your brakes to
fail.
Brake fluid is toxic. If brake fluid contacts the eyes, flush eyes
with running water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if
irritation persists. If taken internally, drink water and induce vomiting.
Seek medical attention immediately.
