Air Bleeding of Brake SystemS7RS0B4106006
CAUTION! 
Brake fluid is extremely damaging to paint. If 
fluid should accidentally touch painted 
surface, immediately wipe fluid from paint 
and clean painted surface.
 
Bleeding operation is necessary to remove air whenever 
it entered hydraulic brake system.
Hydraulic lines of brake system are based on the 
diagonal split system. When a brake pipe or hose was 
disconnected at the wheel, bleeding operation must be 
performed at both ends of the line of the removed pipe or 
hose. When any joint part of the master cylinder of other 
joint part between the master cylinder and each brake 
(wheel) was removed, the hydraulic brake system must 
be bled at all 4 wheel brakes.
NOTE
Perform bleeding operation starting with rear 
brake caliper farthest from master cylinder 
and then at front caliper of the same brake 
line. Do the same on the other brake line.
 
1) Fill master cylinder rese rvoir with brake fluid and 
keep at least one-half full of fluid during bleeding 
operation.
Brake fluid
: Refer to reservoir cap (1) 2) Remove bleeder plug cap. Attach a vinyl tube (1) to 
bleeder plug, and insert the other end into container 
(2).
3) Depress brake pedal several times, and then while  holding it depressed, loosen bleeder plug about one-
third to one-half turn.
4) When fluid pressure in cy linder is almost depleted, 
retighten bleeder plug.
5) Repeat this operation until there are no more air  bubbles in hydraulic line.
6) When bubbles stop, depress and hold brake pedal  and tighten bleeder plug referring to “Front Disc 
Brake Components in Section 4B” and “Rear Disc 
Brake Components in Section 4C”.

“Front Brake Hose / Pipe Construction”
CAUTION! 
Do not allow brake fluid to get on painted 
surfaces. Painted surfaces will be damaged 
by brake fluid, flush it  with water immediately 
if any fluid is spilled.
 
Removal
1) Raise and support vehicle properly. Remove tire and  wheel.
NOTE
This operation is not necessary when 
removing pipes connecting master cylinder.
 
2) Clean dirt and foreign mate rial from both flexible 
hose end and pipe end fittings.
3) Drain brake fluid in reservoir.
4) Remove brake flexible hose or pipe.
Installation
Reverse brake flexible hose removal procedure, noting 
the following.
• Make sure that steering wh eel is in straight-forward 
position and flexible hose has not twist or kink.
• Check to make sure that flexible hose doesn’t contact  any part of suspension, both in extreme right and 
extreme left turn conditions. If it does at any point, 
remove and correct. Fill and  maintain brake fluid level 
in reservoir.
• Bleed brake system. Refer to “Air Bleeding of Brake  System”.
• Perform brake test and check installed part for fluid  leakage.

Parking Brake Inspection and AdjustmentS7RS0B4406001
Inspection
Hold center of parking brake lever grip and pull it up with 
200 N (20 kg, 44 lbs) force.
With parking brake lever pulled up as shown, count 
ratchet notches. There should be 4 to 9 notches.
Also, check if both right and left rear wheels are locked 
firmly.
To count number of notches easily, listen to click sounds 
that ratchet makes while pulling parking brake lever 
without pressing its button.
One click sound corresponds to one notch.
If number of notches is out of specification, adjust cable 
referring to adjustment procedure so as to obtain 
specified parking brake stroke.
NOTE
Check tooth tip of each notch for damage or 
wear. 
If any damage or wear is found, replace 
parking brake lever.
 
Adjustment
NOTE
Make sure for the following conditions before 
cable adjustment.
• No air is trapped in brake system.
• Brake pedal travel is proper.
• Start engine and then brake pedal has  been depressed at least 3 times with about 
160 N (16.0 kg, 35.3 lbs) load.
• Parking brake lever (1) has been pulled up  a few times with about 200 N (20 kg, 44 lbs) 
load.
If parking brake cable is replaced with new 
one, pull up parking brake lever a few 
times with about 500 N ⋅m (50 kg, 110 lbs) 
force.
 
1) Release parking brake lever (1).
2) Loosen parking brake lever adjust nut (2) fully.
3) Make sure that lever (3) contacts pin (4).
4) Pull up parking brake lever 1 notch.
5) Rotate rear wheel by hand and fasten parking lever  adjust nut until dragging rear wheel lightly.
