fluids may result in a harmful chemical reac-
tion and lead to poor brake performance.

ter cylinder when refilling. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of the fluid and
may result in vapor lock.
5. Brake fluid may deteriorate painted surfaces
or plastic parts. Always clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
