CONSTRUCTION
'
* This brake system is filled with an ethylene glycol-based DOT 4 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 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 the 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 disc with high quality brake cleaner or a neutral detergent.
#
Handle brake fluid with care: the fluid reacts chemically with paint, plastics, rubber materials etc.
