4.16.1 Instructions for use and safety
Note
♦
From model year 2006 a new brake fluid will be introduced.
♦
The new brake fluid can also be used for older vehicles.
♦
For this purpose it can be mixed with the previous 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 sleeves 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.
♦ Do not reuse extracted (used) brake fluid.
♦ Observe disposal regulations!
4.16.2 Brake fluid specification
Permissible brake fluid specifications
♦ Brake fluid conforming to US standard FMVSS 116 DOT 4
(previous brake fluid)
♦ Brake fluid conforming to VW standard, VW 501 14 (new brake
fluid).
