APPLICATION INFORMATION AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Note. A new brake fluid had been used since MY 2006. The new brake fluid can also be used in older vehicles. New brake fluid can be mixed with previous brake fluid.

WARNINGBrake fluid must never come into contact with fluids containing mineral oils (oil, gas, cleaning solutions). Oils containing minerals damage seals and sleeves on brake systems. Brake fluid is poisonous. Do not let brake fluid come in contact with the paint. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, which means that it absorbs moisture from the air. Always store brake fluid in air-tight containers. Wash off any spilled brake fluid with plenty of water. Do not reuse used / extracted brake fluid! Observe waste disposal regulations!
