Brake fluid
G WARNING
The brake flui dc onstantly absorbs moisture
from the air. This lowers the boiling point of
the brake fluid. If the boiling point of the brake
flui dist oo low ,v apo rp ockets may form in the
brake system when the brakes are applied
hard. This would impair braking efficiency.
There is ar isk of an accident.
You should have the brake flui dr enewe da t
the specified intervals.
When handling brake fluid, observe the impor-
tant safety notes on service products
( Y
