CAUTION:
  • Do not reuse the drained fluid.
  • Always use genuine DOT3/DOT4 brake Fluid. Using a non-genuine DOT3/DOT4 brake fluid can cause corrosion and decrease the life of the system.
  • Make sure no dirt or other foreign matter is allowed to contaminate the brake fluid.
  • Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle, it may damage the paint; if brake fluid does contact the paint, wash it off immediately with water.
  • When bleeding air, make sure the brake fluid is above 10mm starting from the "MIN" line.
