CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL

With the engine running, have someone press the brake
pedal several times and then press hard (approximately
490 N [50 kgf, 110 lb.]) on it. The distance from the asphalt
sheet to the top surface of the pedal should not be less
than specified.
If the clearance is less, your Lexus dealer should adjust the
brakes.

Count the number of clicks as you slowly press down on
the parking brake pedal as far as it will go (approximately

hear 5 to 7 clicks.
If you count more or less clicks, have the parking brake
adjusted by your Lexus dealer.
