WARNING
• Use only the designated brake fluid. Other
brake fluids may cause the rubber seals to
deteriorate, causing leakage and poor
brake performance.
• Refill with the same type of brake fluid that
is already in the system. Mixing brake fluids
may result in a harmful chemical reaction,
leading to poor brake performance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake master cylinder
reservoir. Water will significantly lower the
boiling point of the brake fluid and could
cause vapor lock.

plastic parts. Therefore, always clean up any
spilt brake fluid immediately.
