CAUTION
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid to
contact the vehicle's body paint, as
paint damage will result. Brake/
clutch fluid, which has been exposed
to open air for an extended time
should never be used as its quality
cannot be guaranteed. It should be
properly disposed. Don't put in the
wrong kind of fluid. A few drops of
mineral-based oil, such as engine oil,
in your brake/clutch system can
damage brake/clutch system parts.
