    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.
