Dont use oil, use brake fluid.

Get dot 4, take cap of reservoir, fill to just under "max" line, replace cap.


Job done.

If its that low first check your pads, as your pads wear your fluid drops.

As mentioned, worn pads. Or a leak. If the fluid has been in there for a couple of years, I'd replace it all rather than just a top up.
