Brake and clutch system: Changing
brake fluid
WARNING
♦ Brake fluid must under no circumstances come into con‐
tact with fluids containing mineral oils (oil, petrol, cleaning
solutions). Mineral oils will damage seals and rubber
grommets of brake system.
♦ Brake fluid is poisonous. In addition, due to its corrosive
nature, it must not come into contact with paint.
♦ Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it attracts moisture from the
surrounding air and therefore must always be stored in air-
tight containers.
♦ Wash away spilt brake fluid using plenty of water.
♦ Observe disposal regulations!
Caution
• For this vehicle only brake fluid VW 501 14 -B 000 750-
must be used.
