This brake system is filled with an ethylene glycol-based DOT4 brake fluid. Do not use or mix different types
of fluid, such as silicone-based or petroleum-based brake fluids.
Do not use any brake fluid taken from old, used or unsealed containers. Never reuse brake fluid left over from
the last servicing or which has been stored for a long periods of time.
When storing brake fluid, seal the container completely and keep it away from children.
When replenishing brake fluid, take care not to get dust into fluid.
When washing brake components, use new brake fluid. Never use cleaning solvent.
A contaminated brake disc or brake pad reduces braking performance. Discard contaminated pads and clean the
brake disc with high quality brake cleaner or neutral detergent.
Brake fluid may cause damage to surfaces of plastic and rubber parts. Keep it far away from these parts.
