CAUTION:
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces

WARNING
Use only the designated quality brake
fluid: other brake fluids may deteriorate

poor brake performance.
Refill with the same type of brake fluid:
mixing brake fluids may result in a harm-
ful chemical reaction and lead to poor
brake performance.
