WARNING
THE BRAKE FLUID IS HYGROSCOPIC, THAT IS, IT ABSORBS MOISTURE FROM THE SUR-
ROUNDING AIR. IF THE LEVEL OF MOISTURE IN THE FLUID EXCEEDS A GIVEN VALUE,
BRAKING EFFICIENCY WILL BE REDUCED. THEREFORE, ALWAYS USE FLUID FROM SEALED
CONTAINERS. UNDER NORMAL DRIVING AND CLIMATIC CONDITIONS YOU SHOULD CHANGE
THIS LIQUID EVERY TWO YEARS. IF THE BRAKES ARE USED INTENSELY AND/OR IN HARSH
CONDITIONS, CHANGE THE FLUID MORE FREQUENTLY.
