WARNING
• Use the recommended brake fluid only.
Otherwise, the rubber retainers may
deteriorate, resulting in leakage and brake
efficiency loss.
• Replenish with the same type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids may result in chemical
reaction on the components and brake
efficiency loss.
• Make sure to prevent water from entering
the master cylinder when replenishing it.
Water decreases the fluid boiling point
and may result in accidents.
