WARNING! (Continued)

•

To avoid contamination from foreign matter or

moisture, use only new brake fluid or fluid that

has been in a tightly closed container. Keep the

master cylinder reservoir cap secured at all times.

Brake fluid in a open container absorbs moisture

from the air resulting in a lower boiling point.

This may cause it to boil unexpectedly during hard

or prolonged braking, resulting in sudden brake

failure. This could result in a accident.

•

Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in

spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts, causing

the brake fluid to catch fire. Brake fluid can also

damage painted and vinyl surfaces, care should be

taken to avoid its contact with these surfaces.

Do not allow petroleum based fluid to contami-

be damaged, causing partial or complete brake

failure. This could result in an accident.
