Brake fluid reservoir
The brake fluid reservoir is secured with an
additional screw.
The new maintenance opening in the brake
fluid reservoir enables the extraction of brake
fluid from both brake fluid chambers.
The new brake filler and bleeder unit
VAS 5234 must be used for this purpose.
Brake light switch
The fastening and adjustment of the brake
light switch are new.
The brake light switch is secured to the pedal
bracket via a bayonet fitting.
The position of the push rod is adjusted for
the basic setting.
For this purpose, the brake light switch must
be released by turning it anti-clockwise.
The push rod catch is released simultane-
ously via the locking lug.
The push rod is now free and can be adjusted
without risk of damage.
The push rod is pulled out to the stop for the
basic setting.
The brake light switch can now be inserted
into the pedal bracket and secured by turning
clockwise. At the same time, the push rod
catch is locked automatically by means of the
locking lug.
