Brake fluid

Over a period of time, the brake fluid ab-
sorbs moisture from the air; this reduces
its boiling point.
Risk of accident
If the boiling point of the brake fluid is too
low, vapour pockets may form in the brake
system when the brakes are applied hard
(e.g. when driving downhill). This would im-
pair the braking efficiency.
Have the brake fluid replaced every
two years.
i
There is usually a notice in the engine com-
partment to remind you when the next brake flu-
id change is due.
