Torque:

15.2 N*m{155 kgf*cm, 11 ft.*lbf}without SST

14 N*m{143 kgf*cm, 10 ft.*lbf}with SST

HINT:

Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.81 in.).

Remove the bleeder plug cap.

Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder plugs.

Depress the brake pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal depressed.

When fluid stops coming out, immediately tighten the bleeder plug. Then release the pedal.

Repeat the 2 previous steps until all the air in the brake fluid is gone.

Tighten the bleeder plug.

Torque:

10.8 N*m{110 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf}for front brake

10 N*m{102 kgf*cm, 7 ft.*lbf}for rear brake

Install the cap.

Bleed air from the brake line for each wheel by repeating the above procedures.

Remove the bleeder plug cap.

Connect the vinyl tube to the bleeder plug.

Depress the clutch pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal depressed.

At the point when fluid stops coming out, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the clutch pedal.

Repeat the previous 2 steps until all the air in the fluid is completely bled out.

Tighten the bleeder plug.

Torque:

11 N*m{112 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf}

Install the bleeder plug cap.

Check that all the air has been bled out of the clutch line.

Check the fluid level and add fluid if necessary.

Fluid:

SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT 3

HINT:

Add fluid to a level between the reservoir's MIN and MAX lines.
