   Brake Fluid:

   SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT 3
   

   NOTICE:

   Add brake fluid to keep the level between the MIN and MAX lines of the reservoir while bleeding the brakes.

NOTICE:

1. Bleed the brake line of the wheel farthest from the master cylinder first.
   
2. Add brake fluid to keep the level between the MIN and MAX lines of the reservoir while bleeding the brakes.
   

1. Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder plug.
   

2. Depress the brake pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal depressed (Procedure 1).
   

3. When fluid stops coming out, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the brake pedal (Procedure 2).
   

4. Repeat (Procedure 1) and (Procedure 2) until all the air in the fluid is completely bled out.
   

5. Tighten the bleeder plug completely.
   

   Torque:

   Front bleeder plug:

   8.3 N*m{ 85 kgf*cm , 73 in.*lbf }

   Rear bleeder plug (for Disc Brake):

   11 N*m{ 112 kgf*cm , 8 ft.*lbf }

   Rear bleeder plug (for Drum Brake):

   8.5 N*m{ 87 kgf*cm , 75 in.*lbf }

6. Repeat the above procedure at each wheel to bleed the brake line.
   

1. Check the brake fluid level.
   If 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.
