PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
3-12
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake master cylinder reser-
voir and brake fluid reservoir. Water will
significantly lower the boiling point of the
brake fluid and could cause vapor lock.
NOTICE
ECA13540
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean up
any spilt brake fluid immediately.
TIP
In order to ensure a correct reading of the brake
fluid level, make sure the top of the brake master
cylinder reservoir or brake fluid reservoir is hori-
zontal.

CHECKING THE FRONT BRAKE PADS
The following procedure applies to all of the
brake pads.
1. Operate the brake.

CHECKING THE REAR BRAKE PADS
The following procedure applies to all of the

BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE
SYSTEM (except for ABS models)
WARNING
EWA13100
Bleed the hydraulic brake system whenever:
• the system is disassembled.
• a brake hose is loosened, disconnected or
replaced.
• the brake fluid level is very low.
• brake operation is faulty.
TIP
• Be careful not to spill any brake fluid or allow
the brake master cylinder reservoir or brake
fluid reservoir to overflow.
• When bleeding the hydraulic brake system,
make sure there is always enough brake fluid
before applying the brake. Ignoring this pre-
caution could allow air to enter the hydraulic
brake system, considerably lengthening the
bleeding procedure.
• If bleeding is difficult, it may be necessary to let
the brake fluid settle for a few hours. Repeat
the bleeding procedure when the tiny bubbles
in the hose have disappeared.
1. Remove:
• Brake fluid reservoir cover “1”
TIP
After removing the brake fluid reservoir cover, in-
stall the brake fluid reservoir temporarily.
