Introduction
The purpose of the brake fluid tester is to measure the amount of water in the brake fluid. Vapor
droplets can form if the water content is excessive, which reduces the braking force and damages
the brake system.
The brake fluid tester has three test modes DOT 3, DOT 4, and DOT 5.1, brake fluid test modes

When ON, press and hold the button for approx. 5 seconds.
3. Release the button, the mode indicator will show what type of brake fluid you are dealing with.
• if the mode indicator turns red, the tester is in a DOT3 brake fluid test mode

3.Immerse the entire length of the metal probes in the brake fluid to be tested, make sure that the two metal probes are not near the
surface of the brake fluid container. After approx. 3 seconds, determine the quality of the brake fluid according to the LED indicators
as follows:
• if the green LED is on, the water content of the brake fluid is less than 1.5 and the brake fluid is OK
• If the yellow LED is on, the water content in the brake fluid is greater than 1.5 and 3, the brake fluid can still be used, but should be
checked periodically
• If the red indicator light is on, the water in the brake fluid is greater than 3 and the brake fluid must be changed immediately.
4. After the test is completed, press the button twice to turn off the tester. The tester will turn off automatically after 20 seconds of
inactivity
