WARNING
BRAKE FLUID IS HYGROSCOPIC; THAT IS, IT ABSORBS MOISTURE FROM THE SURROUND-
ING AIR. IF THE LEVEL OF MOISTURE IN THE FLUID EXCEEDS A GIVEN VALUE, BRAKING WILL
BE INEFFICIENT. THEREFORE, ALWAYS USE FLUID FROM SEALED CONTAINERS. UNDER
NORMAL DRIVING AND CLIMATIC CONDITIONS YOU SHOULD CHANGE THIS FLUID EVERY
TWO YEARS. IF BRAKES ARE USED INTENSELY AND/OR IN HARSH CONDITIONS, CHANGE
THE FLUID MORE FREQUENTLY.
CAUTION
WHEN CARRYING OUT THE OPERATION, BRAKE FLUID MAY LEAK FROM BETWEEN THE
BLEED SCREW AND ITS SEAT ON THE CALLIPER. CAREFULLY DRY THE CALLIPER AND DE-
GREASE THE DISC SHOULD THERE BE BRAKE FLUID ON IT.
