CAUTION!
Brake fluid must never be brought into
contact with liquids containing mineral oils
(e.g. oil, fuel, cleaning agents). Mineral oils
damage the plugs and seals in the brake
system.
Brake fluid must not be allowed to come into
contact with paintwork because of its caustic
effect.
Brake fluid is hygroscopic (i.e. it absorbs
moisture from the surrounding air) and
should therefore always be stored in airtight
containers.
Always dispose of used brake fluid
properly.
Make sure that brake fluid does not enter the
electrical harness connectors.
During painting operations, the electronic
control module can be exposed to a max.
temperature of 95 C (203 F) for only a short
period, and to a maximum of 85 C (186 F)
for longer periods (approx. 2 hours).
