Do not change the thermostat for Summer or Winter

operation. If replacement is ever necessary, install

ONLY the correct type thermostat. Other designs may

result in unsatisfactory coolant performance, poor gas

mileage, and increased emissions.

Brake System

In order to assure brake system performance, all brake

system components should be inspected periodically.

Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper

maintenance intervals.

WARNING!

Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure and

possibly a collision. Driving with your foot resting or

riding on the brake pedal can result in abnormally

high brake temperatures, excessive lining wear, and

possible brake damage. You would not have your full

braking capacity in an emergency.

Master Cylinder – Brake Fluid Level Check

Check the fluid level in the master cylinder immediately

if the brake system warning light indicates system fail-

ure.

Check the fluid level in the master cylinder when per-

forming underhood services.

Clean the top of the master cylinder area before removing

the cap. Add fluid to bring the level up to the top of the

“FULL” mark on the side of the master cylinder reservoir.

Overfilling of fluid is not recommended because it may

cause leaking in the system.

Add enough fluid to bring the level up to the require-

ments described on the brake fluid reservoir. With disc

brakes, fluid level can be expected to fall as the brake

pads wear. However, low fluid level may be caused by a

leak and a checkup may be needed.
