Warning
Brake fluid is poisonous and corrosiv e. Do
not allow it to come into contact with
eyes, skin, fab ric or painted surfaces.
Direct contac t could cause injury and
dam age.
The fluid lev el in the reservoir must be
neither higher than the MAX mark nor
low er than the M IN m ark.
Use of certain brake fluids can lead to
dam age or reduced braking effect. We
therefore rec om mend that you use only
high performa nce app roved b ra ke fluid.
Extrem e cleanliness is needed when
topping up, since contamination in the
brak e fluid can c ause brake sy stem
ma lfunctions.
After c orrecting the brak e fluid level, have
a work shop eliminate the cause of the
brak e fluid loss.
