Brake Pads, Calipers and Rotors
Check brake pads and rotors for
excessive wear; check brake rotors
for runout. Check brake calipers for
fluid leakage. Some models are
equipped with directional rotors.
When servicing these rotors, reinstall
at same location. A qualified techni
cian should perform these operations.
See inside front cover for additional
brake information.

for signs of leakage. If you discover
any leakage, have it repaired immedi
ately bya qualified technician. Refer

and oiliness. Check the belt tension
