Foreword

This Standard was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009.

This Standard replaces GB/T 5345-2008 "Road vehicles - Labelling of

containers for petroleum-based or non-petroleum-based brake fluid".

Compared with GB/T 5345-2008, the main changes are as follows.

- ADD "Graphical symbols to designate brake fluid" (see Clause 1 of this

Standard);

- ADD the term "silicon-based brake fluid" and its definition (see 3.3 of this

Standard);

- DELETE "Labelling of containers for brake fluid on vehicles shall meet the

requirements of 4.6.2" (see 4.1 of 2008 edition);

- MODIFY the requirements for labelling of containers for brake fluid on

vehicles (see 4.5.2 of this Standard, 4.5.2 of 2008 edition);

- MODIFY the requirements for warning information on containers (see 4.6.2

of this Standard, 4.6.2 of 2008 edition);

- ADD the graphical symbol to designate silicon-based brake fluid (see A.3

of this Standard).

This Standard was prepared using the redrafting method with reference to ISO

3871.2000 "Road vehicles - Labelling of containers for petroleum-based or non-

petroleum-based brake fluid" and ISO 9128.2006 "Road vehicles - Graphical

symbols to designate brake fluid types". The degree of consistency with ISO

3871.2000 and ISO 9128.2006 is non-equivalent.

This Standard was proposed by Ministry of Industry and Information

Technology of the People's Republic of China.

This Standard shall be under the jurisdiction of National Technical Committee

of Auto Standardization (SAC/TC 114).

Drafting organizations of this Standard. Zhejiang Asia-Pacific Mechanical and

Electronic Co., Ltd., FAW Car Co., Ltd.

Main drafters of this Standard. Hu Shuibing, Shi Ruikang, Wang Lei.
