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).
