< PRECAUTION >
PRECAUTIONS
• Tighten the brake tube flare nut to the specified torque with
crowfoot (A) and torque wrench (B).
• Always confirm the specified ti ghtening torque when install-
ing the brake pipes.
• Turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the ABS actuator
and electric unit (control unit) connector or the battery nega-
tive terminal before performing the work.
• Check that no brake fluid leakage is present after replacing the parts.
• Burnish the brake contact surf aces after refinishing or replac-
ing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at
very low mileage.
- Front brake: refer to BR-16, "Brake Burnishing"
.
- Rear brake: refer to BR-17, "Brake Burnishing"

ADJUSTMENT
1. Loosen the stop lamp switch (2) and ASCD cancel switch (1) by turning each counterclockwise by 45 °.
2. Loosen clevis lock nut (1) on the input rod (2), then turn input rod to adjust the brake pedal height to specification. Tighten cle-
vis lock nut (1) to specification.
CAUTION:
• Check the height with the floor trim removed.
• The threaded end of the input rod (2) must project to the
inner side (L) of the clevis (3).
3. With the pedal pulled up and held by hand, press the stop lamp switch (1) and ASCD cancel switch (2) until the threaded end
contacts the brake pedal bracket.
4. With the threaded end of the stop lamp switch (1) and ASCD cancel switch (2) contacting the brake pedal bracket, rotate the
switch clockwise by 45 ° to secure.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the clearance (C) between brake pedal
bracket and end of stop lamp switch (1) and ASCD cancel
switch (2) is within the standard. Refer to BR-48, "Brake
Pedal".
5. Check the brake pedal for smooth operation. CAUTION:
Make sure that stop lamps are off when the brake pedal is released.

5. Tighten the bleeder valve to the specified torque. Refer to BR-36, "BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY :
Exploded View" (front disc brake) or BR-39, "BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY : Exploded View" (rear disc
brake).
6. Repeat steps 1 to 5, for the remaining brake calipers with master cylinder reservoir tank filled at least half-
way, bleed air from brake hydraulic line bleeder valves in the following order:
Front right brake →Front left brake →Rear right brake →Rear left brake

BRAKE PIPING
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".

CAUTION:
Do not allow foreign matte r (e.g., dust) and oils other than brake fluid to enter the reservoir tank.
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.

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"
.
