WARNING:
Only use the prescribed brake fl uid. Other brake fl uids may be
the cause of deterioration to rubber gaskets, causing leaks and
an unsuitable operation of the braking system.
Top up with the same brake fl uid already in the system. The mix
of different brake fl uids may lead to a harmful chemical reaction,
able to cause incorrect operation of the braking system.
While topping up, take care not to let any water into the tray.
Water would signifi cantly lower the boiling point of the brake
fl uid and could cause steam bubbles.
