Brake Fluid: Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Subaru Outback and 2015 Subaru Legacy. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Check that the amount of brake fluid is between the lines of "MIN" (a) and "MAX" (b) from a straight view or within 90° to the right and left forward.

    If out of the specified range, refill with brake fluid (c) or drain it.

    If the brake fluid level is close to "MIN", check the brake pad for wear and refill with brake fluid.

    CAUTION: Always check the level using the specified direction because there is a partition in the reservoir tank.
