6. Check the pedal stroke.
While the engine is idling, depress the brake pedal with a 490 N (50 kgf, 110 lb) load and measure the distance between the brake pedal and
steering wheel. With the brake pedal released, measure the distance between the pedal and steering wheel again. The difference between the two
measurements must be more than specified.
Specified pedal stroke: 95 mm (3. 74 inch)
When depressing brake pedal with a 490 N (50 kgf, 110 lb) load.
7. If the distance is more than specifications, there is a possibility that air is in the brake line. Bleed brake line until pedal stroke meets the
specification.
8. Operate hydraulic control unit in the sequence control mode.
With ABS: <Ref. to ABS Sequence Control.>
With VDC: <Ref. to VDC Sequence Control.>
9. Recheck the brake stroke.
10. If the distance is more than specifications, there is a possibility air is in the inside of the hydraulic unit. Repeat above steps 2) to 9) above until
pedal stroke meets the specification.
11. Add brake fluid to the required level (MAX. Level) of reservoir tank.
12. As a final step, test run the vehicle at low speed and apply brakes relatively hard 2 to 3 times to ensure that brakes provide normal braking action
on all four wheels without dragging and uneven braking.
