Brake fluid level
Bedding in the brake pads
New brake pads require a slightly longer bedding-in period for PCCB brake discs than cast iron brake discs.
In general, the following applies: New brake pads must be worn in (bedding-in period), their optimum braking effect is not reached until after a few
hundred kilometers. The slightly reduced braking effect must be compensated for by increased pressure on the brake pedal. The same also applies
after changing brake discs.

The core of the warning contact wire must not be left exposed. Worn insulation is not important.
If necessary, remove a little brake fluid from the reservoir by suction in order to prevent an overflow when the disc brake pads are pushed back.
1. Remove the safety bracket and extract the retaining pin inwards.
