Bleed Brake System

IMPORTANT: To prevent contamination of the brake
system, make sure to clean components before dis-
assembly.
1. Park vehicle on a level surface, turn key switch OFF,
apply parking brake and remove key from the key
switch.
2. Connect a suitable transparent hose to bleeder valve
on front or rear brake caliper. Submerge other end of
hose in a glass container partially filled with clean brake
fluid.
3. Have a second person pump brake pedal several
times, then hold pedal down firmly.
4. With pedal firmly depressed, open bleeder valve of
brake until pedal fades to floor. Close bleeder valve be-
fore releasing pedal.
5. Repeat procedure until a continuous flow of brake
fluid, with no air bubbles, is released from bleeder valve.
Make sure fluid level is maintained in brake fluid res-
ervoir at all times.
6. Torque bleeder valve from 54 to 66 in- -lb (6.1 to 7.4
N- -m).
7. Repeat steps 1 to 5 for other brake calipers.
CAUTION
After servicing the brakes, always check the
brakes in a wide open, level area that is free of
other persons and obstructions.
8. After bleeding of brakes is completed, test vehicle to
make sure brakes are operating correctly and brake
pedal is firm when applying brakes.
