Brake Rotor Protector
{WARNING
Ceramic rotors will be very hot
after operation and touching them
may cause burns. Be sure brake
system is completely cool prior to
installation of protector, or coming
in contact with them.
Notice: Rotors may be chipped
if hard contact is made with the
wheel during wheel installation
or removal. Always use the rotor
protectors. Be sure to carefully
follow wheel removal and
installation instructions.
A rotor protector should always be
installed before any wheel removal.
The protector can be installed by
feeding it through the wheel spokes
and slipping it over the outer edge
of the rotor. Leave the protector in
place, over the rotor edge, until
the wheel is re‐installed. Rotor
protectors are available through
your dealer.
Brake Pedal Travel
See your dealer if the brake pedal
does not return to normal height,
or if there is a rapid increase in
pedal travel. This could be a
sign that brake service might
be required.
Brake Adjustment
Every brake stop, the disc brakes
automatically adjust for wear.
