    *1 Bleeder Plug Cap
    *2 Bleeder Plug

    1. Remove the bleeder plug cap.

    2. Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder plug.

    3. Depress the clutch pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug while the pedal is depressed.

    4. When fluid no longer comes out, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the clutch pedal.

    5. Repeat the previous 2 steps until all the air in the fluid is completely bled.

    6. Tighten the bleeder plug.

      Torque:
      8.4 N*m  { 86 kgf*cm, 74 in.*lbf }
    7. Install the bleeder plug cap.

    8. Check that all the air has been bled from the clutch line.

  12. INSPECT FLUID LEVEL


    1. A010LQYE01

      Check the fluid level.

      If the brake fluid level is lower than the MIN line, check for leaks and inspect the disc brake pads. If necessary, refill the reservoir with brake fluid to the MAX line after repair or replacement.

      Brake Fluid
      SAE J1704 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT 4
  13. INSPECT FOR FLUID LEAK

    Tech Tips

    Check for leaks in the clutch system.
