WARNING: Use an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)-approved vacuum cleaner to avoid breathing brake dust.

CAUTION:
- Never use an air hose or dry brush to clean brake assemblies.
- Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint. If brake fluid does contact the paint, wash it off immediately with water.
- To prevent spills, cover the hose joints with rags or shop towels.
- Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
