ADJUSTMENT
1. CHECK AND ADJUST BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT
(a) Inspect brake pedal height.
Pedal height from dash panel:
RHD: 142.5 to 152.5 mm (5.610 to 6.004 in.)
LHD:
M/T: 148.1 to 158.1 mm (5.831 to 6.224 in.)
A/T: 149.9 to 159.9 mm (5.902 to 6.295 in.)
(b) Adjust brake pedal height.
(1) Remove the instrument finish panel lower.
(2) Disconnect the connector from the stop lamp switch
assy.
(3) Turn the stop lamp switch assy counterclokwise and
remove the stop lamp switch assy.
(4) Loosen the brake master cylinder push rod clevis
lock nut.
(5) Adjust the pedal height by turning the pedal push
rod.
(6) Tighten the push rod lock nut.
Torque: 19 Nm (194 kgfcm, 14 ftlbf)
HINT:
If the pedal height is incorrect, check and adjust the stop lamp
switch clearance.
(c) Disconnect the stop lamp switch assy connector from the
stop lamp switch assy.
(d) Turn the stop lamp switch assy counterclockwise and re-
move the stop lamp switch assy.
(e) Insert the stop lamp switch assy until the body hits the
cushion.
NOTICE:
When inserting the stop lamp switch assy, support the ped-
al from behind so that the pedal is not pushed in.
(f) Make a quarter turn clockwise to install the stop lamp
switch assy.
NOTICE:
The turning torque for installing the stop lamp switch assy.
Torque: 1.5 Nm (15 kgfcm, 13 in.lbf) or less
(g) Connect the stop lamp switch connector to the stop lamp
switch assy.

(h) Check the protrusion of the rod.
Protrusion of the rod: 0.5 to 2.6 mm (0.020 to 0.102 in.)
(i) Install the clevis pin and clip.
(j) After adjusting the pedal height, check the pedal free
play.
2. CHECK PEDAL FREE PLAY
(a) Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal several
times until there is no more vacuum left in the booster.
(b) Push in the pedal until the beginning of the resistance is
felt. Measure the distance, as shown.
Pedal free play: 1 to 6 mm (0.04 to 0.24 in.)
3. CHECK PEDAL RESERVE DISTANCE
(a) Release the parking brake lever.
With the engine running, depress the pedal and measure
the pedal reserve distance, as shown.
Pedal reserve distance from asphalt sheet at 490 N
(50 kgf, 110.2 lbf): More than 50 mm (1.97 in.)
If the distance is out of the specification , troubleshoot the brake
system.

BRAKE FLUID
BLEEDING
NOTICE:
Wash the brake fluid off immediately if it adheres to any painted surfaces.
HINT:
When working on the brake system or when air in the brake lines is suspected, bleed the air from the system.
1. FILL RESERVOIR WITH BRAKE FLUID
Fluid: SAE J1704 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT4
2. BLEED MASTER CYLINDER
HINT:
After disassembling the master cylinder or when the reservoir
becomes empty, bleed the air out of the brake master cylinder.
(a) w/o VSC:
Using SST, Disconnect the brake lines from the brake
master cylinder.
SST 09023±00100
(b) w/ VSC:
Using SST, Disconnect the brake lines from the brake
master cylinder.
SST 09023±38400
(c) Slowly depress and hold the brake pedal it.
(d) Cover off the outer holes with your fingers, and release
the brake pedal.
(e) Repeat (b) and (c) 3 or 4 times.

3. BLEED BRAKE LINE
(a) Connect the vinyl tube to the brake caliper.
(b) Depress the brake pedal several times, then loosen the
bleeder plug with the pedal depressed.
(c) At the point when the fluid stops, coming out tighten the
bleeder plug, then release the brake pedal.
(d) Repeat (b) and (c) until all the air in the fluid has been bled
out.
(e) Repeat the above procedure to bleed the air out of the
brake line for each wheel.
Torque: 10 Nm (102 kgfcm, 7 ft.lbf)
4. CHECK FLUID LEVEL IN RESERVOIR
(a) Check the fluid level and add fluid if necessary.
Fluid: SAE J1704 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT4
