CAUTION:
• All hoses and piping (tubes) must be fr ee from excessive bending, twisting and pulling.
• Make sure there is no interference with other pa rts when turning steering both clockwise and coun-
terclockwise.
• The brake piping is an important safety part. If a brake fluid leak is detected, always disassemble the
parts. Replace applicable part with a new one, if necessary.
• 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.
• Do not bend or twist brake hose sharply, or strongly pull it.
• Do not reuse drained brake fluid.
• After installation of the ABS actuator and electri c unit (control unit), refill brake system with new
brake fluid. Then bleed the ai r from the system. Refer to BR-14, "Bleeding Brake System"
.

3. Disconnect the brake hose (1) from brake tube (2) at the flarenut (A) using a suitable tool and remove the lock plate (3).
4. Remove the union bolt (A) and remove brake hose from caliper assembly. Discard the copper sealing washers.
• Protrusions (B)
CAUTION:
Do not reuse the copper sealing washers.
5. Remove the brake hose.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
• All brake hoses and brake tubes must be free fr om excessive bending, twisting and pulling.
• Make sure that there is no interference with othe r parts when turning steering both clockwise and
counterclockwise.
• Brake tubes and brake hoses are an important safety part. Always disassemble the parts and
retighten their fittings if a brake fluid leak is detect ed. Replace applicable part with a new one, if dam-
aged part is detected.
• 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.
• Refill with new brake fluid “DOT 3”.
• Do not reuse drained brake fluid.
1. Assemble the union bolt and new copper sealing washers on the brake hose. CAUTION:
Do not reuse the copper sealing washers.
2. Install brake hose by aligning the brake hose with the protrusion (B) on brake caliper assembly as shown. Tighten union bolt (A)
to the specified torque. Refer to BR-20, "FRONT : Exploded
View".

1. Assemble the union bolt (A) and the copper sealing washers (1) to the brake hose and install it as an assembly to the brake cali-
per. Align the brake hose L-pin by aligning it with the brake cali-
per hole, and tighten the union bolt (A) to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse copper sealing washers.
2. Install the brake pipe to the brake hose, temporarily tighten the flare nut by hand until it does not rotate further, and attach the

WARNING:
Clean dust on brake calipers and brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of
airborne particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
• While removing brake caliper, do not depr ess brake pedal because piston will pop out.
• It is not necessary to remove bolts from torque member and brake hose except for disassembly or
replacement of brake caliper assembly. In this case, hang brake caliper with a wire so as not to
stretch brake hose.
• Do not damage piston boot.
• Keep brake rotor and brake pads free from brake fluid and grease.
• Burnish the brake pads and disc brake rotor mutual ly contacting surfaces after refinishing or replac-
ing disc brake rotors, after replacing brake pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer
to BR-16, "Brake Burnishing"
.

• Do not allow the coolant to
contact the drive belts.
• Perform this step when engine is cold.
5. When draining all of the coolant in the system for engine removal or repair, open all of the drain plugs (A-D) on the cylin-
der block.
6. Check the drained coolant for contaminants such as rust, corro- sion or discoloration.
If the coolant is contaminated, flush the engine cooling system.
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Install the radiator drain plug. If the cooling syst em was drained completely, install the reservoir tank and
the cylinder block drain plugs.
• The radiator must be complete ly empty of coolant and water.
• Apply sealant to the threads of the cylinder block drain plug. Use Genuine High Performance
Thread Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-21, "Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants"
.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse copper sealing washers.
2. If disconnected, reattach the upper radiator hose at the engine side.
3. Set the vehicle heater controls to the full HOT and heat er ON position. Turn the vehicle ignition ON with
the engine OFF as necessary to activate the heater mode.
