BRAKE FLUID LEVEL INSPECTION AND BLEEDING

M1351001400295

CAUTION

• Use only brake fluid DOT3 or DOT4. Never mix the specified brake fluid with other brake fluid, as it 

will significantly decrease braking performance.

• Depress the brake pedal slowly. If the brake pedal is pressed too quickly, the pump motor will acti-

vate frequently and a large volume of high-pressure brake fluid may flow from the brake caliper 
quickly, depleting the HBB reservoir contents and possibly introducing air into the HBB system.

• Depending upon the quantity of brake fluid in the reservoir, if the brake pedal is pressed with the 

reservoir cap removed, the brake fluid in the reservoir may overflow.

• Use suitable protection to prevent brake fluid from contacting underhood components and body 

paint.

HBB System Bleeding

WARNING

The HBB system bleeding must be done in the follow-
ing cases.

If brake fluid is drained after removing or installing 
the HBB

if there is excessive brake fluid loss during normal 
brake system bleeding

if you suspect that air has entered the HBB system

NOTE: The HBB brake system bleeding procedure requires 
two persons working together.
HBB system bleeding must be done in the following order:

HBB SYSTEM BLEEDING STEPS

1.

FRONT BRAKE LINES (FILLING)

2.

ACCUMULATOR (HBB)

3.

REAR BRAKE LINES (FILLING)

4.

POWER SUPPLY (HBB)

5.

BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM

35A-123

CAUTION

• Keep the brake fluid reservoir level just above the 

"MIN" line. Monitor the fluid level during this procedure 
to ensure the fluid does not reach below the "MIN" line, 
to prevent air from entering the system.

• If a large quantity of brake fluid is drained during the 

bleeding procedure, the accumulator pressure will 
decrease abnormally. Do not bleed more than 0.1 dm

3

 

(0.11quart) from each wheel at a time.

• Confirm that the pump motor stops after each air-bleed-

ing step. If not, proceed to the troubleshooting the HBB 
System section.

NOTE: The buzzer may sound during this procedure due to low 
pressure in the system. The buzzer will stop when normal HBB 
pressure is restored.

Required Special Tool:

• MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)

1. Fill the front brake system with brake fluid as follows (RH 

first, LH second):

(1) Attach a clear hose to the RH caliper bleeder valve. This 

helps to monitor air/fluid flow.

(2) Be sure the fluid level is between the "MIN" and "MAX" 

lines.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position. 

Pump the brake pedal 3 

− 4 times and hold it depressed.

(4) Open the RH caliper bleeder valve 1/4 turn.
(5) With the bleeder valve still open, pump the brake pedal 

repeatedly to fill the line with fluid until no obvious air 
bubbles are seen. When no more obvious air bubbles are 
seen, and while the brake pedal is still being pumped, 
close the bleeder valve.

(6) Repeat steps (1) 

− (5) for the LH caliper.

(7) Release the brake pedal when both sides are filled.

2. Fill the pump motor as follows:

(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position to operate 

the pump motor.
a. If the pump motor operates normally (normal operation 

sound), go to step 3.

b. If the pump motor operation sound is dry and high-

pitched, depress the brake pedal 3 or 4 times to 
introduce fluid into the pump motor. Then go to step 3.

3. Fill the accumulator system with brake fluid as follows:

(1) Wait for the pump motor to stop from step 2.
(2) Depress the brake pedal slowly 3 or 4 times with the 

ignition switch at the "ON" position. Observe the condition 
of the brake fluid in the reservoir.
a. If the fluid is cloudy, leave it for 2 or 3 minutes until it 

becomes clear.

b. Repeat the above procedure (a) until no bubbles 

appear while pumping the brake pedal.

NOTE: OK to fill the reservoir to the "MAX" line during this 
process. Brake fluid level around the "MIN" line may cause 
bubbles to appear from the jet flow of brake fluid while 
pumping the brake pedal.

4. Fill the rear brake system with brake fluid as follows (RH 

first, LH second):

CAUTION

• If a large quantity of brake fluid is drained during the 

bleeding procedure, the accumulator pressure will 
decrease abnormally. Do not bleed more than 0.1 dm

3

 

(0.11quart) from each wheel at a time.

• Confirm that the pump motor stops after each air-bleed-

ing step.

NOTE: A high-pressure hydraulic noise (hissing) is normal 
during this procedure.

(1) Attach a clear hose to the RH caliper bleeder valve. This 

helps to monitor air/fluid flow.

(2) Be sure the fluid level is between the "MIN" and "MAX" 

lines.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position. 

Pump the brake pedal 3 

− 4 times and hold it depressed.

(4) Open the RH caliper bleeder valve 1/4 turn.
(5) With the bleeder valve still open, pump the brake pedal 

repeatedly to fill the line with fluid until no obvious air 
bubbles are seen. When no more obvious air bubbles are 
seen, and while the brake pedal is still being pumped, 
close the bleeder valve.

(6) Repeat steps (1) 

− (5) for the LH caliper.

(7) Release the brake pedal when both sides are filled.

5. Supply brake fluid into the power supply system as follows:

CAUTION

Keep the brake fluid reservoir level just above the "MIN" 
line at this time. Monitor the fluid level during this proce-
dure to ensure it does not reach below the "MIN" line.

(1) To release the pressure in the HBB power supply system, 

turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position and 
depress the brake pedal repeatedly until its depressing 
force suddenly feels heavy (no pedal travel).

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position and at the 

same time quickly depress the brake pedal approximately 
20 times. Then confirm that the pump motor has stopped. 
This can take up to 2 minutes.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position and 

depress the brake pedal repeatedly until its depressing 
force suddenly feels heavy (no pedal travel).

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position to operate 

the pump motor. Confirm that the pump motor stops 
within 25 seconds. If the pump motor does not stop, 
repeat steps (1) through (3) above.

6. Supply fluid into the ABS system as follows:
