1. Check that there is no foreign material in the reservoir tank, andrefill with new brake fluid. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubri-
cants".
2. Loosen the bleeder valve, slowly depress the brake pedal to the full stroke, and then release the pedal. Repeat this operation at
intervals of 2 or 3 seconds until new brake fluid is discharged.
Then close the bleeder valve with the brake pedal depressed.
Repeat the same work on each wheel.
3. Perform the air bleeding procedure. Refer to MA-36, "
BRAKE
FLUID : Bleeding Brake System".
BRAKE FLUID : Bleeding Brake SystemINFOID:0000000012432283
CAUTION:
• Turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect ABS act uator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
negative terminal before performing the work.
• Monitor the fluid level in the reservoir tank while performing the air bleeding.
• Do not spill or splash brake fluid on painted su rfaces. Brake fluid may seriously damage paint. Wipe
it off immediately and wash with wa ter if it gets on a painted surface.
• Always use new brake fluid for refilling. Do not reuse drained brake fluid.
• Do not allow foreign matter (e.g. dust) and oils other than brake fluid to enter the reservoir tank.
1. Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder valve.
2. Fully depress the brake pedal 4 to 5 times.
3. Loosen the bleeder valve and bleed air with the br ake pedal depressed, and then quickly tighten the
bleeder valve.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all of the air is out of the brake line.
5. Tighten the bleeder valve to the specified torque. • Front disc brake: Refer to BR-36, "
BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY : Exploded View".
• Rear drum brake: Refer to BR-41, "
Exploded View".
6. Perform steps 1 to 5 in the following order: Front (RH) brake → front (LH) brake → rear (RH) brake → rear
(LH) brake.
7. Check that the fluid level in the reservoir tank is within the specified range after air bleeding. Refer to MA-
35, "BRAKE FLUID : Inspection".
8. Add brake fluid as necessary to keep the brake fluid level within the specified range. Refer to MA-11, "
Flu-
ids and Lubricants".
9. Inspect the brake pedal height and play. Adjust it if the measurement value is not the standard. Refer to
BR-9, "
Inspection and Adjustment".

DISC BRAKE : Brake BurnishingINFOID:0000000012432285
BRAKE BURNISHING
Burnish contact surfaces between disc brake rotor and brake pads according to the following procedure after
refinishing disc brake rotors, replacing disc brake rotors,
replacing brake pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very
low mileage:
CAUTION:
• Be careful of vehicle speed because the brake peda l does not operate firmly/securely until pads and
disc brake rotor are securely seated.
• Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic conditions. Use extreme caution.
1. Drive vehicle on straight, flat road.
2. Depress brake pedal with the power to stop vehicle within 3 to 5 seconds until the vehicle stops.
3. Drive without depressing brake pedal for a few minutes to cool the brakes.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 until pad and disc brake rotor are securely seated.
DISC BRAKE : InspectionINFOID:0000000012432286
INSPECTION
Appearance
Check surface of disc brake rotor for uneven wear, cra cks, and serious damage. Replace it if necessary. Refer
to BR-45, "
Front Disc Brake".
Runout
1. Secure the disc brake rotor to the wheel hub with wheel nuts (2
points at least).
2. Check the wheel bearing axial end play before the inspection. Refer to FA X - 7 , "
Inspection".
3. Inspect the runout with a dial indicator to measure at 10 mm (0.39 in) inside the disc edge.
4. Find the installation position that has a minimum runout by shift-
ing the disc brake rotor-to-wheel hub installation position by one
hole at a time if the runout exceeds the limit value.
5. Refinish or replace the disc brake rotor if the runout is outside the limit even after performing the above
operation.
CAUTION:
If the thickness is less than w ear thickness + 0.3 mm (0.012 in), replace the disc brake rotor. Refer
to BR-37, "
BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY : Removal and Installation".
Thickness
Check the thickness of the disc brake rotor using a micrometer.
Replace the disc brake rotor if the thickness is below the wear limit.
Refer to BR-45, "
Front Disc Brake".
