Pay attention to the following when handling brake fluid:
Brake fluid is poisonous. Never suck out brake fluid by mouth through a hose. Pour brake fluid only into containers from which accidental consumption is excluded.
Brake fluid is corrosive and therefore must not come into contact with the car pack, otherwise wipe it off immediately and rinse the contact area with water.
Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air. Therefore, store brake fluid only in closed containers.
Brake fluid that has already been used in the brake system must not be reused. When bleeding the brake system, also use only new brake fluid.
Brake fluid specification: DOT 4.
Brake fluid must not come into contact with mineral oils. Even slight traces of mineral oil make the brake fluid unusable or lead to failure of the brake system
Change the brake fluid every 2 years regardless of the vehicle mileage, if possible after the cold season.
Take the used brake fluid to your local authorized waste officer and do not drain it into the sewer.
