Parking Brake Stroke
357
Maintenance and Service11
The disc brakes have audible wear indica-
tors on the brake pads. If the brake pads
wear close to their service limit, the wear
indicator makes a very audible scraping
noise when the brake pedal is applied.
If you hear this scraping noise each time
you apply the brake pedal, have the brake
pads serviced by your SUBARU dealer as
soon as possible.■ Breaking-in of New Brake
Pad s and LiningsWhen replacing the brake pad or lining,
use only genuine SUBARU parts. After
replacement, the new parts must be
broken in as follows.
▼ Brake pad and lining
While maintaining a speed of 30 to 40 mph
(5 0 to 65 km/h), step on the brake pedal
lightly. Repeat this five or more times.
▼ Parking brake lining1. Drive the vehicle at a speed of approx-
imately 22 mph (35 km/h).
2. With the parking brake release button
pushed in, pull the parking brake lever
SLOWLY and GENTLY (pulling with a
force of approximately 33.7 lbf [150 N,
15.3 kgf]). 3. Drive the vehicle for approximately
220 yards (200 meters) in this condition.
4. Wait 5 to 10 minutes for the parking
brake to cool down. Repeat this proce-
dure.
5. Check the parking brake lever travel. If
the parking brake lever travel is out of the
specified range, adjust it by turning the
adjusting nut located on the parking brake
lever.
11-20. Parking Brake StrokeCheck the parking brak e stroke according
to the maintenance schedule in the
“Warranty and Maintenance Booklet”.
Parking brake stroke:
7 – 8 notches / 45 lbf (200 N, 20.4 kgf)
WARNING
A safe location and situation should
be selected for break-in driving.
CAUTION
Pulling the parking brake lever too
forcefully may cause the rear
wheels to lock. To avoid this, be cer-
tain to pull the lever up slowly and
gently.
