Safety information: Use brake fluid only in accordance with manufacturer instruc
tions!General Information: Original ATE Brake Fluids
=========================

Brake fluid changes:
mandatory for optimum safety.

Only the brake fluid joins the individual brake components
together with their various tasks to form high-performance
brake systems. The expansion of the brake system's functions
with anti-lock braking systems (ABS), traction control (TC)
and automatic stability management systems (ASMS) has led
to high demands being placed on brake fluids.

As one of the world's leading brake manufacturers,
Continental Teves is therefore constantly working in its
laboratories and testing departments on the improvement of
its Original ATE Brake Fluids. Experience shows time and
time again that just fulfilling the minimum requirements of
the best-known brake fluid standards offers no guarantee
for a reliable interaction with modern brake systems. That
is why we recommend that the brake fluid be checked
regularly (e. g. with the Original ATE BFCS Testing Unit
that gives a precise result in seconds).

In order to maintain the safe performance of the brake
system, the old brake fluid must be changed in accordance
with the intervals that are recommended by the vehicle
manufacturer.

Because brake fluid is hygroscopic it inevitably absorbs
water. Over time its boiling point will steadily decrease.
Under high thermal pressure steam bubbles can form at low
boiling points. Failure of the brake system is a distinct
possibility.

In order to remove abrasive wear and impurities as well as
to increase the corrosion protection in the brake system,
the brake fluid should be changed regularly.

NEW:
The Original ATE Brake Fluid cans in sizes of up to 1 litre
have a newly developed cap system so that they can be better
emptied of all their contents.
