Brake Bleeding: Service Precautions

WARNING!
^

Brake fluid is poisonous 

Caution! 
^

Brake fluid must not contact painted parts.

^

Brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air and must therefore be replaced every two years. Use only new, unused and approved brake fluid that
complies with MVSS 116 DOT 4.

^

Do not use silicone-based brake fluid (DOT 5). Even the smallest traces can cause severe corrosion in the brake system.
