The reservoir has a transparent body, so the brake fluid level can be monitored from the outside.
The brake fluid level should always be closer to the "MAX" mark.
If the brake fluid level is too low, before removing the plug from the expansion tank, wipe the plug and the area around the plug with a clean rag to prevent dirt from getting into the brake hydraulic circuit.
Add the recommended brake fluid to the reservoir. Mixing different types of brake fluid can damage the hydraulic system.
Brake hoses should be checked at least twice a year.
To prevent sudden failure of the brake system, carefully check the condition of all pipes and connections, paying particular attention to the following:
Metal pipelines must be free of scratches and corrosion and must be kept away from sharp edges that could damage them.
The brake hose must be elastic, have no tears or cracks, and be firmly sealed in the tips. The threads of the hose tips must not be damaged. If the hose swells when you press the brake pedal, the cord threads are torn. If any of these defects are detected, the hose must be replaced. Hoses must not come into contact with mineral oils and greases that dissolve rubber.

All pipe fastening brackets must be intact and well secured. Loosening or breaking of brackets leads to vibration of the pipelines, which causes them to break.
Brake fluid leakage from the connections of the master cylinder with the pipes and reservoir is not allowed.
If any faults are detected, replace the damaged parts with new ones. Flexible hoses, regardless of their condition, should be replaced with new ones after 120,000 km or after five years of vehicle operation to prevent sudden ruptures due to rubber aging. A brake hose that rubs against suspension parts wears out and eventually fails.
Use a mirror and light to check.
