How
to
Add
Fluid
Here’s
how
to
add fluid. Refer to the
Maintenance Schedule to determine what
kind
of
fluid
to
use. See “Recommended
Fluids
and Lubricants”
in
the
Index.
1.
Remove
the
dipstick
by
flipping
the
handle
up
and
then
pulling
the
dipstick out.
2.
Add fluid
at
the
dipstick
hole.
Add
only
enough
fluid to bring
the
fluid
level
up to the
FULL
mark
on
the
dipstick.
3.
Push
the
dipstick
back
in
all
the way;
then flip the
handle
down
to
lock
the
dipstick
in

Hydraulic
Clutch
The hydraulic clutch
in
your vehicle is
self-adjusting. The clutch master cylinder
reservoir is filled with hydraulic clutch
fluid.
It isn’t a good idea to “top
off’
your
clutch fluid. Adding fluid won’t correct a
leak.
A
fluid
loss
in
this system could indicate
a
problem. Have the system inspected and
repaired.
When
to
Check
and
What
to
Use
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule
to
determine how often
you
should check
the fluid level
in
your clutch master
cylinder reservoir and for the proper fluid.
See “Owner Checks and
Services”
and
“Recommended Fluids and Lubricants”
in
the Index.
