Maintenance and care CHECKING AND ADDING MANUAL TRANSAXLE CLUTCH FLUID The brake fluid reservoir and clutch master cylinder are part of the same unit; both are refillable through the brake fluid reservoir with brake fluid. During normal operation, the fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir will rise slowly. For more information on brake fluid maintenance, refer to Checking and adding brake fluid in this chapter. CHECKING AND ADDING WASHER FLUID What you should know about washer fluid In freezing weather (temperatures below 0°C [32°F], washer fluid containing a small amount of antifreeze is used. State or local regulations on volatile organic compounds may restrict the use of methanol, a common type of antifreeze. Use a non-methanol antifreeze in freezing weather only if the fluid does not damage the paint finish, wiper blades, or washer system. Washer fluid contains methanol and is poisonous. Follow all instructions on the bottle of washer fluid. 134
