just a little point.... as the breaking system is a sealed system, as in the fluid can't go anywhere other than pushing pistons or wheel cyliders, if the fluid gets low enough to be turning on the warning light it suggests the pads are low, or there is a leak on the system somewhere.

Best not to just top up brake fluid without checking for pad wear and leaks at the same time
