2.0 Handling Brake Fluids: Caution

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 258 other vehicles, including the 2006 BMW Z4, 2006 BMW X5, 2006 BMW X3, 2006 BMW M6, and 2006 BMW M5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If brake fluid accidentally comes into contact with your skin, wash it off with soap and water immediately. Eyes should be thoroughly flushed with cold water if contacted by brake fluid. Vomiting should be induced if brake fluid is internally consumed and a physician should be consulted.

If brake fluid is spilled or drips on a painted surface, wash it off with water immediately to prevent damage to the paint finish. Never rub it off. Brake fluids should not have contact with grease or oil. Wash hands to remove grease and oil before working with brake fluids. Also make sure that grease cannot enter the brake system.

Drained brake fluid must never be discarded in the garbage, oil disposal tanks or water drains.

Read instructions on container label prior to use.
