CAUTION
•
Brake fluid is corrosive on paintwork. Be
careful not to spill it onto the paintwork. If
brake fluid is spilled onto the paintwork,
immediately wipe it off.
• During brake fluid replacement operation, a
change in color of the brake fluid being dis-
charged indicates that the old brake fluid in
the system has been replaced with new brake
fluid.
• During the replacement, be sure to keep the
brake fluid level at the “MAX” mark on the
tank.
1. Start the engine and let it idle until you complete
brake fluid replacement.
2. Attach vinyl pipes to air bleeders of the front
wheel cylinder and the rear wheel cylinder, and
put the free ends into vessels.
3. Loosen air bleeders and depress the brake
pedal several times to drain brake fluid com-
pletely.
4. Maintaining a supply of new brake fluid up to the
“MAX” level of the brake fluid tank, depress the
brake pedal repeatedly until the old brake fluid of
the brake system is replaced with new fluid, and
after you complete the work, tighten each air
bleeder at specified torque.
5. Bleed air from the brake system.
Note: As to the detailed procedure, please refer
to the related shop manuals.
