Warning
If installing new proprietary brand
brake pads, check that the carrier
plate of the brake pad is the specified
thickness shown in the table.
Installing brake pads with the carrier
plate less than the specified thickness
may result in brake failure due to the
possible loss of the brake pad as it
wears.
