Jaguar X-Type JJM 21 02 20/15 - Manual (Page 159)

Maintenance 7-9
Check brake/clutch fluid
reservoir
The manual transmission clutch fluid is
shared with the brake fluid in a common
reservoir.
!
WARNING:
The fluid level will drop as the brake
pads wear. If the level is very low
report the loss of fluid to the nearest
Jaguar Dealer. Do not drive the
vehicle until the cause is rectified.
Caution:
1. While handling brake fluid, take
extreme care; brake fluid must not
contact the vehicle paintwork.
2. Always use fresh, clean fluid from
a new container. Never introduce
used brake fluid into the system.
Refer to page 7-5 for brake/clutch fluid
reservoir location.
The fluid is visible through the
translucent casing of the reservoir and
must be maintained at the ‘MAX’ mark.
If necessary, replenish as follows:
Before removing the cap, clean the
reservoir and cap thoroughly with a
non-fluffy cloth to ensure that no foreign
matter enters the reservoir.
Unscrew the filler cap and replenish to
the ‘MAX’ level using brake fluid to
specification Jaguar Super DOT 4
(ESA-M6C25-A).
Refit the filler cap securely.
To avoid contamination should any brake
fluid be spilt, replace the cap on the
reservoir before cleaning the spilt fluid
from the vehicle.
