WARNING Risk of an accident due to

tem
The brake fluid con stantly absorbs moisture
from the air. This lo wersthe boiling point of
th e brake fluid. If the boiling point is too lo w, va
pour poc kets may form inthe brake sy stem
when the brakes are applied hard.
This impairs the braking ef fect. #
