Warning
Brake fluid is poisonous and corrosive. Do
not allow it to come into contact with
eyes, skin, fabric or painted surfaces.
Direct contact could cause injury and
damage.
The fluid level in the reservoir must be
neither higher than the MAX mark nor
lower than the MIN mark.
The use of certain brake fluids can cause
damage or loss of braking power. We
therefore recommend the use of high-
performance brake fluid that has been
approved by Vauxhall if necessary.
Extreme cleanliness is needed when
topping up, since contamination in the
brake fluid can cause brake system
malfunctions.
After correcting the brake fluid level, have
the cause of brake fluid loss remedied. We
recommend that you consult your Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer.
