CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

Move the shift lever to P and apply the parking brake before bleeding the brakes.
Add brake fluid to keep the level between the MIN and MAX lines of the reservoir while bleeding the brakes.
If brake fluid leaks onto any painted surface, immediately wash it off.
If replacing is performed with the engine running or the engine switch on (IG), DTC C1441 will be stored. Make sure to clear the DTCs when work is complete.

HINT:

If any work is performed on the brake system or if air in the brake lines is suspected, bleed the brake system.
