Checking Brake Fluid LevelNLBR0006+Check fluid level in reservoir tank. It should be between Max
and Min lines on reservoir tank.
+If fluid level is extremely low, check brake system for leaks.
+Release parking brake lever and see if brake warning lamp
goes off. If not, check brake system for leaks.
SBR389C
Checking Brake LineNLBR0007CAUTION:
If leakage occurs around joints, retighten or, if necessary,
replace damaged parts.
1. Check brake lines (tubes and hoses) for cracks, deterioration
or other damage. Replace any damaged parts.
2. Check for oil leakage by fully depressing brake pedal while
engine is running.
SBR419C
Changing Brake FluidNLBR0008CAUTION:
+Refill with new brake fluid“DOT 4”.
+Always keep fluid level higher than minimum line on res-
ervoir tank.
+Never reuse drained brake fluid.
+Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
1. Clean inside of reservoir tank, and refill with new brake fluid.
2. Connect a vinyl tube to each air bleeder valve.
3. Drain brake fluid from each air bleeder valve by depressing
brake pedal while keeping reservoir level higher than minimum
line by adding new brake fluid.
4. Repeat until new brake fluid comes out of each air bleeder
valve.
Use same procedure as in bleeding hydraulic system to refill
brake fluid. Refer to“Bleeding Brake System”, BR-8 and“Air
Bleeding Procedure”, CL-10.
Brake Burnishing ProcedureNLBR0036Burnish the brake contact surfaces according to the following pro-
cedure after refinishing or replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or
if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
CAUTION:
Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic con-
ditions. Use extreme caution.
1. Drive the vehicle on a straight smooth road at 50 km/h (31
MPH).
2. Use medium brake pedal/foot effort to bring the vehicle to a
complete stop from 50 km/h (31 MPH). Adjust brake pedal/foot

1. Remove master cylinder reservoir cap.
2. Remove pin bolt.
3. Open cylinder body upward. Then remove pad with retainers,
inner and outer shims.
Standard pad thickness:
11 mm (0.43 in)
Pad wear limit:
2.0 mm (0.079 in)
Carefully monitor brake fluid level because brake fluid will
return to reservoir when pushing back piston.
SBR979B
RemovalNLBR0031WARNING:
Clean brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the
hazard of airborne particles or other materials.
Remove torque member fixing bolts and connecting bolt.
It is not necessary to remove connecting bolt except for dis-
assembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this case,
suspend caliper assembly with wire so as not to stretch brake
hose.
SBR772
DisassemblyNLBR0032WARNING:
Do not place your fingers in front of piston.
CAUTION:
Do not scratch or score cylinder wall.
1. Push out piston with piston boot with compressed air.
2. Remove piston seal with a suitable tool.
InspectionNLBR0033CALIPERNLBR0033S01Cylinder BodyNLBR0033S0101+Check inside surface of cylinder for score, rust, wear, damage
or presence of foreign materials. If any of the above conditions
are observed, replace cylinder body.
+Minor damage from rust or foreign materials may be eliminated
by polishing surface with a fine emery paper. Replace cylinder
body if necessary.
CAUTION:
Use brake fluid to clean. Never use mineral oil.

+On vehicles equipped with daytime light systems, set
lighting switch to the 1st position to light only small
lamps.
+Keep front wheels pointed straight ahead.

is unstable, perform the following to initialize IACV-AAC
valve:
a)Stop engine and wait 9 seconds.
b)Turn ignition ªONº and wait 1 second.
c)Turn ignition ªOFFº and wait 9 seconds.

This system automatically controls engine idle speed to a specified
level. Idle speed is controlled through fine adjustment of the
amount of air which by-passes the throttle valve via IACV-AAC
valve. The IACV-AAC valve changes the opening of the air by-pass
passage to control the amount of auxiliary air. This valve is actu-
ated by a step motor built into the valve, which moves the valve in
the axial direction in steps corresponding to the ECM output sig-
nals. One step of IACV-AAC valve movement causes the respec-
tive opening of the air by-pass passage. (i.e. when the step
advances, the opening is enlarged.) The opening of the valve is
varied to allow for optimum control of the engine idling speed. The
crankshaft position sensor (POS) detects the actual engine speed
and sends a signal to the ECM. The ECM then controls the step
position of the IACV-AAC valve so that engine speed coincides with
the target value memorized in ECM. The target engine speed is the
lowest speed at which the engine can operate steadily. The opti-
mum value stored in the ECM is determined by taking into consid-
eration various engine conditions, such as during warm up,
deceleration, and engine load (air conditioner, power steering, cool-
ing fan operation and electrical load).

COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONNLEC0279S02IACV-AAC ValveNLEC0279S0202The IACV-AAC valve is operated by a step motor for centralized
control of auxiliary air supply. This motor has four winding phases
and is actuated by the output signals of ECM which turns ON and
OFF two windings each in sequence. Each time the IACV-AAC
valve opens or closes to change the auxiliary air quantity, the ECM
sends a pulse signal to the step motor. When no change in the
auxiliary air quantity is needed, the ECM does not issue the pulse
signal. A certain voltage signal is issued so that the valve remains
at that particular opening.

CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant following the procedure in the LC-19,
ªChanging Engine Coolantº. Also, replace the engine oil.
1) Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure to use
coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA-20, ªAnti-freeze Coolant Mixture Ratioº, ªRECOM-
MENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTSº.
2) After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.
