Brake System Bleeding
NOTE:. Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage
the painU if brake fluid does contact the paint. wash it
off immediately with water.. The reservoir on the master cylinder must be at the
MAX (upper) level mark at the start of the bleeding
procedure and checked after bleeding each brake
caliper. Add fluid as required.. Do not reuse the drained fluid.. Always use Honda DOT 3 brake fluid. Non-Honda
brake fluid can cause corrosion and shorten the life of
the system.. Make sure no din or other foreign matter is allowed
to contaminate the brake fluid.
1. Make sure the brake fluid level in the reservoir is at
the MAX (upper) level line (A).
Slide a piece of clear plastic hose over the flrst
bleed screw, and submerge the other end in a
container of new brake fluid.
Have someone slowly pump the brake pedal
severaltimes, then apply steady pressure.
Starting at the left-front, loosen the brake bleed
screw to allow air to escape from the system. Then
tighten the bleed screw securely.

{Front Brake Caliper Overhaul
Frequent inhalation of brake pad dust, regardless of material composition, could be hazardous to your health.. Avoid breathing dust particles.' Never use an air hose or brush to clean brake assemblies. use an osHA-approved vacuum cleaner.
Remove, disassemble, inspect, reassemble, and install the caliper, and note these items:' Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if brakefluidgetsonthepaint,washitoffimmediately with water.. To prevent dripping, cover disconnected hose joints with rags or shop towels.. Cleanall partsinbrakefluidandairdry;blowoutall passageswith compressed air.. Before reassembling, check that all parts are free of dust and other foreign particles.. Replace parts with new ones as specified in the illustration.. Make sure no dirt or other foreign matter is allowed to contaminate the brake fluid,' When reusing pads, always reinstallthem in their original pos itio ns to prevent loss of braking efficiency.. Do not reuse drained brake fluid.'AlwaysuseHondaDOT3brakefluid.Non'Hondabrakefluidcancausecorrosionandshortenthelifeofthesvstem.
. Do not mix different brands of brake fluid as they may not be compatible.. Coatthe piston, piston seal groove, and caliper borewithclean brakefluid.. Make sure no grease or oil gets on the brake discs or pads.. Replace all rubber parts with new ones whenever disassembled.. After installing the caliper, check the brake hose and line for leaks, interference, and twistinq.
