INSTALLATION

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

Immediately after installing the brake pads, the braking performance may be reduced. Always perform a road test in a safe place while paying attention to the surroundings.
After replacing the rear disc brake pads, the brake pedal may feel soft due to clearance between the rear disc brake pads and rear disc. Depress the brake pedal several times until the brake pedal feels firm.
After replacing the rear disc brake pads, always perform a road test to check the braking performance and check for vibrations.

HINT:

Use the same procedure for the RH side and LH side.
The following procedure is for the LH side.
