Note  
From model year 2006 a new brake fluid is used.  
The new brake fluid can also be used for older vehicles.  
For this purpose it can be mixed with the previous brake fluid.  
WARNING  
♦ Never allow brake fluid to come into contact with fluids that  
contain mineral oils (e.g. oil, petrol, cleaning agents). Min‐  
eral oils damage the seals and boots in the brake system.  
♦ Brake fluid is poisonous. In addition, due to its corrosive  
nature, it must not come into contact with paint.  
♦ Brake fluid is hygroscopic, which means it absorbs mois‐  
ture from the ambient air and should therefore always be  
stored in air-tight containers.  
♦ Rinse off spilled brake fluid using plenty of water.  
♦ Observe relevant disposal regulations.  
♦ Do not reuse drained (used) brake fluid.  
Brake fluid specification  
♦ Brake fluid conforming to US standard FMVSS 116 DOT 4
