Safety regulations

1.3.1  BFX-20

Always carefully study and follow all the safety regulations before 
using the MAHLE product. Correct use of the BFX-20 is impor-
tant for your personal safety and for trouble-free functionality. 
Incorrect use can cause damage to the unit or lead to incorrect 
functionality.

Brake fluids are poisonous and may cause damage 
to health!

 

y

Regular maintenance should be performed on the BFX-20 to 
ensure proper and safe operation.

 

y

Improper handling may lead to damage to health or property.

 

y

The brake maintenance device may only be operated by those 
trained to use it. Unauthorized persons are not permitted to 
operate it.

 

y

Always check the brake fluid exchange unit, hoses, cables and 
plugs before use. Do not use the brake maintenance device if 
it is damaged. The device may only be repaired by a specialist. 
Never open the brake maintenance device yourself.

The BFX-20 unit should not be exposed to excess moisture 
or be operated in wet areas.

recommended and may void warranty.

 

y

It is important to test drive every vehicle after the service to 
verify proper brake system operation. Failure to do so could 
result in undetected brake system failure.
