Regularly measure the thickness of brake
discs : with a calliper gauge. The mini-
mum thickness ; of 1.8 mm (0.07 in) is
printed on the brake discs. The entire
friction ring should not be below this
thickness. If this is not the case, the brake
disc must be replaced immediately at a
qualified specialist workshop.
