INSTALL NO. 6 FLEXIBLE HOSE BRACKET
1. Install the bracket with the bolt.
  
  Torque:
  
  29 N*m { 296 kgf*cm, 21 ft.*lbf }
INSTALL REAR FLEXIBLE HOSE
1. Connect the rear flexible hose to the connecting point with each brake tube, and then install 2 new clips.
2. Using a union nut wrench, connect each brake tube to the rear flexible hose while holding the rear flexible hose with a wrench.
  
  Torque:
  
  15 N*m { 155 kgf*cm, 11 ft.*lbf }
  Note
  - Do not bend or damage the brake tube.
  - Do not allow any foreign matter such as dirt and dust to enter the brake tube from the connecting point.
  - Use the formula to calculate special torque values for situations where a union nut wrench is combined with a torque wrench Click here.
3. Connect the rear flexible hose to the connecting point with each brake tube, and then install 2 new clips.
4. Using a union nut wrench, connect each brake tube to the rear flexible hose while holding the rear flexible hose with a wrench.
  
  Torque:
  
  15 N*m { 155 kgf*cm, 11 ft.*lbf }
  Note
  - Do not bend or damage the brake tube.
  - Do not allow any foreign matter such as dirt and dust to enter the brake tube from the connecting point.

INSTALL REAR FLEXIBLE HOSE LH
1. Connect the rear flexible hose to the connecting point with the brake tube, and then install a new clip.
2. Using a union nut wrench, connect the brake tube to the rear flexible hose while holding the rear flexible hose with a wrench.
  
  Torque:
  
  15 N*m { 155 kgf*cm, 11 ft.*lbf }
  Note
  - Do not bend or damage the brake tube.
  - Do not allow any foreign matter such as dirt and dust to enter the brake tube from the connecting point.

3. Install the rear flexible hose and a new gasket to the rear disc brake cylinder with the new union bolt.
  
  Torque:
  
  31 N*m { 316 kgf*cm, 23 ft.*lbf }
  
  Tech Tips
  
  Install the flexible hose lock securely to the lock hole in the cylinder.
BLEED BRAKE LINE (for Hydraulic Brake Booster)
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Remove the brake master cylinder reservoir filler cap assembly.
3. Add brake fluid until the fluid level is between the MIN and MAX lines of the reservoir.
4. Repeatedly depress the brake pedal and bleed air from the bleeder plug of the front disc brake cylinder RH.
5. Repeat the step above until the air is completely bled, and then tighten the bleeder plug while depressing the brake pedal.
  
  Torque:
  
  11 N*m { 110 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf }
6. Bleed the air from the bleeder plug of the front disc brake cylinder LH using the same procedure as for the RH side.
7. With the brake pedal depressed, loosen the bleeder plug of the rear disc brake cylinder RH, continue to hold the brake pedal and allow brake fluid to be drained from the bleeder plug while the pump motor operates.
  Tech Tips
  - Air is bled as the pump motor operates while the brake pedal is being depressed.
  - Be sure to release the brake pedal to stop the motor after approximately 100 seconds of continuous operation.
  - As brake fluid is continuously drained while the pump operates, it is not necessary to repeatedly depress the brake pedal.
8. When there is no more air in the brake fluid, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the brake pedal.
  
  Torque:
  
  11 N*m { 110 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf }
9. Bleed the air from the bleeder plug of the rear disc brake cylinder LH using the same procedure as for the RH side.
10. Turn the ignition switch off.
11. Inspect for brake fluid leaks.
12. Check and adjust the brake fluid level Click here.
13. Clear the DTCs Click here.
BLEED BRAKE LINE (for Vacuum Brake Booster)
1. Remove the brake master cylinder reservoir filler cap assembly.
2. Add brake fluid until the fluid level is between the MIN and MAX lines of the reservoir.
3. Loosen the bleeder plug of the front disc brake cylinder RH.
4. Repeatedly depress the brake pedal and bleed the air from the bleeder plug of the front disc brake cylinder RH.
  
  Note
  
  Add fluid as necessary so that the fluid in the reservoir does not decrease below the MIN level.
5. After air is completely bled out, tighten the bleeder plug while depressing the brake pedal.
  
  Torque:
  
  11 N*m { 110 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf }
6. Bleed the air from the bleeder plug of the front disc brake cylinder LH using the same procedure as for the RH side.
7. Loosen the bleeder plug of the rear disc brake cylinder RH.
8. Repeatedly depress the brake pedal and bleed the air from the bleeder plug of the rear disc brake cylinder RH.
  
  Note
  
  Add fluid as necessary so that the fluid in the reservoir does not decrease below the MIN level.
