1. Install the caliper with the 2 bolts.
   

   Torque:

   78.4 N*m{ 800 kgf*cm , 58 ft.*lbf }

1. Connect the flexible hose with the union bolt and a new gasket.
   

   Torque:

   39 N*m{ 400 kgf*cm , 29 ft.*lbf }

   NOTICE:

   Install the flexible hose lock securely in the lock hole in the disc brake cylinder assembly.

HINT:

Install the clip lock securely in the groove of the pad.

1. Apply disc brake grease to the anti-squeal shims and install them to each pad.
   

   NOTICE:

   1. Apply disc brake grease to the anti-squeal shims and install them to each pad.
      
   2. Install each shim in the correct position and direction.
      
   3. There should be no oil or grease on the friction surface of the pads and the disc.
      
   4. Install each pad, as shown in the illustration.
      

1. Install the hole pin while pushing on the front disc brake anti-rattle spring.
   

2. Install the clip.
   

1. Move the shift lever to the P position and apply the parking brake.
   

2. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3 with the engine switch off.
   

3. Remove the 2 ABS motor relays with the engine switch off from the engine room relay block No.3.
   
   

   
   
   
   

4. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
   

   NOTICE:

   Do not start the engine.

5. Turn the intelligent tester on and select "DIAGNOSTIC MENU"→"ABS/VSC"→"ECB UTILITY"→"ECB INVALID".
   

1. Fill reservoir with brake fluid.
   

   Fluid:

   SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT3
   

NOTICE:

If brake fluid leaks onto any painted surface, clean it off completely.

1. Add brake fluid into the reservoir.
   

   Fluid:

   SAE J1703 or FMVSS No.116 DOT3
   

NOTICE:

Bleed the air from the wheel furthest from the master cylinder.

1. Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder plug.
   

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

3. When fluid stops coming out, tighten the bleeder plug, then release the brake pedal.
   

4. Repeat (b) and (c) until all the air in the fluid is completely bled out.
   

5. Using SST, tighten the bleeder plug completely.
   

   SST

   09023-00101  
   

   Torque:

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

6. Repeat the above procedures for each wheel to bleed the air from the brake line.
   

NOTICE:

Bleed the air from the wheel furthest from the master cylinder.

1. Connect the vinyl tube to the bleeder plug.
   

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

3. When fluid stops coming out, tighten the bleeder plug, then release the brake pedal.
   

4. Repeat (b) and (c) until all the air in the fluid is completely bled out.
   

5. Using SST, tighten the bleeder plug completely.
   

   Torque:

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

6. Repeat the above procedures for other wheels to bleed the air from the brake line.
   

1. Check the fluid level and add fluid if necessary.
   

   Fluid:

   SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT3
   

   If fluid leaks, tighten or replace the leaking part.
   

1. After performing accumulator zero down (accumulator depressurizing), adjust the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir to the MAX level.
   

   HINT:

   1. After performing accumulator zero down (accumulator depressurizing), fluid is built up in the accumulator by turning the engine switch on (IG) and the fluid level lowers.
      
   2. If the fluid level is adjusted without performing accumulator zero down (accumulator depressurizing), fluid is sent from the accumulator to the reservoir. The fluid level may exceed the MAX level, but it is normal.
      

Torque:

103 N*m{ 1,050 kgf*cm , 76 ft.*lbf }
