3 Series E36 Z3 (M52TU) ROADST
3. Braking-in specification for duo-servo handbrake
The following braking-in procedures are applicable in case of
insufficient braking effect or after replacing brake disks and/or
brake shoes.
With vehicle moving at approx. 40 km/h, pull up handbrake lever
until braking of vehicle is noticed.
Then pull up handbrake lever into next catch and drive approx.
400 m in this position.
(A basic requirement is that handbrake is adjusted uniformly.)
Note:
Handbrake is completely independent of service brake and
consequently is only subjected to limited wear.
In the course of time, dirt and corrosion will quite often cause
braking effect of handbrake to diminish.
