• Use a clean funnel when filling the brake fluid reservoir.
• Do not use brake fluid taken from old or already opened
containers.
• Do not mix different fluids.
• Failure to follow these warnings could result in damage to
the brake system, which could cause serious bodily injury
or death if the brake system fails to engage.
