Nissan Murano: Do-it-yourself / Brake fluid

WARNING
- Use only new fluid from a sealed container.
Old, inferior or contaminated
fluid may damage the brake system.
The use of improper fluids can damage
the brake system and affect the
vehicle’s stopping ability.
- Clean the filler cap before removing.
- Brake fluid is poisonous and should
be stored carefully in marked containers
out of reach of children.
CAUTION
Do not spill the fluid on any painted surfaces.
This will damage the paint. If fluid
is spilled, immediatelywash the surface
with water.
Check the fluid level in the reservoir. If the
brake fluid is below the MIN line
, the
brake warning light will illuminate. Add
brake fluid up to the MAX line
.
For additional
information on brake fluid type, refer
to “Recommended fluids/lubricants and
capacities” in the “Technical and consumer
information” section of this manual.
If the brake fluid must be added frequently,
the brake system should be thoroughly
checked. It is recommendedthat you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
Check the fluid level in the reservoir.
The fluid level should be checked when the
fluid is cold at fluid temperatures of 32 to
86ºF (0 to 30ºC). The fluid level can be
checked with the level gauge which is attached
to the cap...
Fill the windshield-washer fluid reservoir periodically.
Add windshield-washer fluid when
the “Low Washer Fluid” warning message
shows on the vehicle information display...
