    Here are the professional instructions for checking and adding brake fluid to your Cadillac CT6:
    1. **Park on a Level Surface**: Ensure your Cadillac CT6 is parked on a flat, level surface before checking or adding brake fluid.
    2. **Locate the Brake Fluid Reservoir**: Open the hood of your Cadillac CT6 and locate the brake fluid reservoir. It is usually located near the firewall on the driver's side of the engine compartment and is marked with a cap labeled "brake fluid."
    3. **Inspect the Fluid Level**: Check the fluid level by visually inspecting the reservoir. There are typically minimum and maximum marks on the side of the reservoir. The fluid level should be between these marks. If the level is below the minimum mark, it's time to add more brake fluid.
    4. **Clean the Reservoir Cap**: Before opening the reservoir, clean the area around the cap to prevent any dirt or debris from contaminating the brake fluid.
    5. **Open the Reservoir Cap**: Unscrew the reservoir cap counterclockwise to access the interior. Be cautious not to spill any brake fluid on the surrounding engine components or painted surfaces, as it can cause damage.
    6. **Add Brake Fluid**: Slowly pour brake fluid into the reservoir until it reaches the maximum mark. Use a funnel if necessary to prevent spills. Be sure to use the type of brake fluid recommended in your vehicle's owner's manual.
    7. **Close the Reservoir Cap**: Once you have added the brake fluid, securely screw the reservoir cap back on in a clockwise direction.
    8. **Check for Leaks**: After adding brake fluid, inspect the area around the reservoir and brake lines for any signs of leaks. If you notice any leaks, have them repaired by a professional mechanic as soon as possible.
    9. **Test the Brake Pedal**: Before driving your Cadillac CT6, press the brake pedal a few times to ensure it feels firm and responsive. This will help verify that the brake system has been properly pressurized.
    By following these professional instructions, you can safely and effectively check and add brake fluid to your Cadillac CT6, ensuring optimal brake performance and safety on the road.
