Warning
Brake fluid is toxic and caustic. Keep
away from eyes, skin, textiles and
painted surfaces. Direct contact can
cause injuries and damage.
The fluid level in the reservoir must be
neither higher than the MAX mark nor
lower than the MIN mark.
The use of certain brake fluids can cause
damage or loss of braking power. We
therefore recommend the use of high-
performance brake fluid that has been
approved.
When topping up, ensure maximum
cleanliness as contamination of the brake
fluid can lead to function problems in the
braking system.
After correcting the brake fluid level, have
a workshop eliminate the cause of the
brake fluid loss.
