ter is ok. If not, proceed to step 300.

Display: LOW BRAKE FLUID
Explanation: Brake fluid level too low.
Effect: • Brake fluid level indicator lights up
Possible Causes: • Brake fluid level too low
• Faulty wiring
• Faulty switch
Remedy: Check brake fluid level
1. Check brake fluid container level.
If the level is ok, proceed to step 2.
If there is insufficient brake fluid, rectify the cause (worn brake linings in
the load wheels, leaks etc.) (see page 386). Then add brake fluid
(DOT4) (see page 389).

Note: The lid must be screwed onto the container and the brake fluid filled to
the max. marking.
