NOTE:
After replacing brake shoes or disc rotors, or if brakes do not function well, perform break-in operation as follows.
1. Adjust parking brake pedal stroke. Refer to See: Testing and Inspection.
2. Perform parking brake break-in operation by driving the vehicle forward under the following conditions:
-

Vehicle speed at 40 km/h (25 MPH)

-

Apply parking brake with an operating force of 196 N (20.0 kg-f, 44.1 lb-f) set

-

Apply parking brake for a period of 30 seconds

CAUTION:
-

To prevent lining from getting too hot, allow a cool off period of approximately 5 minutes after every break-in operation.

-

Do not perform excessive break-in operations, because it may cause uneven or early wear of lining.

3. After break-in operation, check pedal stroke of parking brake. Readjust if it is no longer at the specified stroke. Refer to See: Testing and
