BRAKE SYSTEM PRECAUTION


  1. TROUBLESHOOTING PRECAUTION

    Note


    • Care must be taken to replace each part properly as it could affect the performance of the brake system and result in a driving hazard. Replace the parts with those having the same part number or equivalent.

    • It is very important to keep parts and the area clean when repairing the brake system.

    • If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communication system, refer to the precaution in the Introduction section.

    • Care must be taken when using magnets as they could affect the performance of the speed sensors.

    • Since the brake line is classified as one of the critical safety related parts, be sure to disassemble the components if a brake fluid leak is found. If any abnormality is found, replace the component with a new one.

    • When removing brake components, cover the brake tube connections to prevent foreign matter such as dust or dirt from entering the tubes.

    • Do not damage or deform the brake tubes when removing or installing them.

    • When installing a grommet onto the body, ensure that the brake tube passes through the center of the grommet.

    • Do not allow brake fluid to adhere to any painted surface such as the vehicle body. If brake fluid leaks onto any painted surface, immediately wash it off.
