2. Install torque converter to drive plate.
IWith converter installed, rotate crankshaft several turns to
check that transaxle rotates freely without binding.
3. Reinstall any part removed.
4. Adjust control cable. Refer to AT-114.
5. Check continuity of PNP switch. Refer to AT-53.
6. Refill transaxle with CVT fluid and check fluid level.
7. Move selector lever through all positions to be sure that tran-
saxle operates correctly. With parking brake applied, idle
engine. A slight shock should be felt through the hand gripping
the selector each time the transaxle is shifted.
8. Perform road test. Refer to AT-36.

Checking Brake Fluid Level
lCheck fluid level in reservoir tank. It should be between Max.
and Min. lines on reservoir tank.
lIf fluid level is extremely low, check brake system for leaks.
lIf brake warning lamp comes on and fluid level is above
ªMINº mark, check brake fluid level switch and parking brake
switch.
Checking Brake Line
CAUTION:
If leakage occurs around joints, retighten or, if necessary,
replace damaged parts.
1. Check brake lines (tubes and hoses) for cracks, deterioration
or other damage. Replace any damaged parts.
2. Check for oil leakage by fully depressing brake pedal while
engine is running.
Changing Brake Fluid
CAUTION:
lRefill with new brake fluid ªDOT 4º.
lAlways keep fluid level higher than minimum line on
reservoir tank.
lNever reuse drained brake fluid.
lBe careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
1. Clean inside of reservoir tank, and refill with new brake fluid.
2. Connect a vinyl tube to each air bleeder valve.
3. Drain brake fluid from each air bleeder valve by depressing
brake pedal while keeping reservoir level higher than mini-
mum line by adding new brake fluid.
4. Repeat until new brake fluid comes out of each air bleeder
valve.
Use same procedure as in bleeding hydraulic system to refill
brake fluid. Refer to ªBleeding Brake Systemº, BR-8.
Brake Burnishing Procedure
Burnish the brake contact surfaces according to the following
procedure after refinishing or replacing rotors, after replacing
pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
CAUTION:
Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic con-
ditions. Use extreme caution.
1. Drive the vehicle on a straight smooth road at 50 km/h (31
MPH).

CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT
BR-7

1. Loosen lock nut and adjust pedal free height by turning brake
booster input rod. Then tighten lock nut.
2. Check pedal free play.
Make sure that brake lamps go off when pedal is released.
3. Check brake pedal's depressed height while engine is run-
ning.
If depressed height is below specified value, check brake
system for leaks, accumulation of air or any damage to com-
ponents (master cylinder, wheel cylinder, etc.); then make
necessary repairs.

On-vehicle Service
OPERATING CHECK
1. Depress brake pedal several times with engine off. After
exhausting vacuum, make sure there is no change in pedal
stroke.
2. Depress brake pedal, then start engine. If pedal goes down
slightly, operation is normal.
AIRTIGHT CHECK
1. Start engine, and stop it after one or two minutes. Depress
brake pedal several times slowly. Booster is airtight if pedal
stroke is less each time.
2. Depress brake pedal while engine is running, and stop
engine with pedal depressed. The pedal stroke should not
change after holding pedal down for30 seconds.
Removal
CAUTION:
lBe careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
lBe careful not to deform or bend brake pipes, during
removal of booster.

Inspection
1. Check control lever for wear or other damage. Replace if
necessary.
2. Check wires for discontinuity or deterioration. Replace if nec-
essary.
3. Check warning lamp and switch. Replace if necessary.
4. Check parts at each connecting portion and, if found
deformed or damaged, replace the parts.
Adjustment
Before or after adjustment, pay attention to the following points.
lMake sure the toggle lever of the rear disc brakes returns to
stopper, when the parking lever is released.
lThere is no drag when parking brake lever is released.
lVehicle is unladen.
1. Adjust clearance between shoe and drum or pad and rotor
as follows:
a. Release parking brake lever and loosen adjusting nut.
b. Depress brake pedal fully at least 10 times with engine run-
ning.
2. Pull control lever 10 times or more to make a lever stroke of
203.5 mm (8.01 in). At6-8notches, adjust the parking brake
cable by turning the adjusting nut.
3. Pull control lever with the specified amount of force. Check
lever stroke and ensure smooth operation.
