ADJUSTMENT

If the brake pad is ground or replaced, or if there is an abnormal feel to the braking force, follow the procedure below and perform break-in work.

CAUTION:
- Because the brake effectiveness is reduced, pay sufficient attention to the vehicle speed.
- Perform checks on a safe road and be careful of the traffic conditions.
1.Drive on straight and flat roads.
2.Stop the vehicle by depressing the brake pedal to generate braking force that stops the vehicle in 3 to 5
seconds.
3.Cool the brakes.
4.Repeat steps 1 to 3 until the abnormal feel in braking force disappears.
