CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT OF BRAKE
PEDAL
1. CHECK THAT PEDAL HEIGHT IS CORRECT
Pedal height from asphalt sheet:
177.5 ± 187.5 mm (6.988 ± 7.382 in.)
If incorrect, adjust the pedal height.
2. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST PEDAL HEIGHT
(a) If necessary, remove the instrument lower finish pan-
el and air duct.
(b) Loosen the stop light switch lock nut.
(e) Sufficiently loosen the stop light switch.
(d) Loosen the push rod lock nut.
(e) Adjust the pedal height by turning the pedal push
rod.
(f) Return the stop light switch until it lightly contacts the
pedal stopper.
(g) Tighten the two lock nuts.
(h) Check that the stop lights light when the brake pedal
depressed.
(i) After adjusting the pedal height, check and adjust
the pedal freeplay.
3. CHECK THAT PEDAL FREEPLAY IS CORRECT
(a) Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal sever-
al times until there is no more vacuum left in the
booster.
(b) Push in the pedal until the beginning of resistance
is felt. Measure the distance, as shown.
Pedal freeplay: 3 ±6 mm (0.12 ± 0.24 in.)
HINT: The freeplay to the first resistance is due to the play
between the clevis and pin. And it is 1 3 mm (0.04±
0.12 in.) on the pedal.
4. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST PEDAL FREEPLAY
(a) If incorrect, adjust the pedal freeplay by turning the
pedal push rod.
(b) Start the engine and confirm that pedal freepiay ex-
ists.
(e) After adjusting the pedal freeplay, check the pedal

CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT OF
CLUTCH PEDAL
1. CHECK THAT PEDAL HEIGHT IS CORRECT
Pedal height from asphalt shaft 181 ± 191 mm
(7:13 ± 7.52 in.)
2. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST PEDAL HEIGHT
(a) Remove the instrument lower finish panel and discon-
nect the air duct.
(b) Loosen the lock nut and turn the stopper bolt (w/o
Cruise control system) or clutch switch (w/ Cruise
control system) until the height is correct. Tighten the

HINT: Before rotating the clutch switch for pedal height
adjustment, disconnect the clutch switch connector.
3. CHECK THAT PEDAL FREEPLAY AND PUSH ROD
PLAY ARE CORRECT
(Pedal Freeplay)
Push in the pedal until the beginning of clutch resistance
is felt.
Pedal freeplay: 5 ± 15 mm (0.20 ± 0.59 in.)
Push rod play at pedal top: 1.0 ± 5.0 mm
(0.039 ± 0.197 in.)
4. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST PEDAL FREEPLAY AND
PUSH ROD PLAY
(a) Loosen the lock nut and turn the push rod until the free-
play and push rod play are correct.
(b) Tighten the lock nut.
(e) After adjusting the pedal freeplay, check the pedal
height.
(d) Connect the air duct and install the lower finish panel.
5. INSPECT CLUTCH RELEASE POINT
(a) Pull the parking brake lever and install wheel stopper.
(b) Start the engine and idle the engine.
(e) Without depressing the clutch pedal, slowly shift the
shift lever into reverse position until the gears contact.
(d) Gradually depress the clutch pedal and measure the
stroke distance from the point the gear noise stops
(release point) up to the full stroke end position.
Standard distance: 25 mm (0.98 in.) or more
(From pedal stroke end position to release point)
If the distance is not as specified, perform the following
operation.
wInspect pedal height.
wInspect push rod play and pedal free play.
wBleed the clutch line.
