Reservoir Tank

The use of DOT 3 motor vehicle brake fluid remains crucial to service the brake master cylinder reservoir because alternative fluid types will cause permanent brake component damage that makes brakes inoperable and presents a threat to personal safety. Careful handling of brake fluid is necessary because it contains polyglycol ethers along with polyglycols, but you should avoid eye contact with this substance; therefore, wash your hands completely before resuming activity. Running water should be used to flush the eyes for 15 minutes when this happens, and you should find medical assistance if irritation does not stop. Drinking water followed by vomiting induction should trigger a call to medical services. Care must be taken due to brake fluid damage caused to painted and plastic materials, so clean up any spills followed by immediate water rinsing. The process starts with reservoir cap removal together with disconnecting the brake fluid level warning switch electrical connector. A valid suction device should be used to drain the brake fluid present in the brake master cylinder reservoir. When working with a vehicle that uses a manual transmission, it is necessary to remove and plug the clutch master cylinder feed hose. To continue the procedure, remove the reservoir by detaching its retaining clips below, then elevating the unit upwards. Before installation, place new seals inside the container of DOT 3 motor vehicle brake fluid. Then discard the used seals. The completion procedure requires following the reverse order of removal while performing brake system bleeding followed by clutch master cylinder bleeding if applicable.
