CAUTION:

• All hoses and piping (tubes) must be free from excessive bending, twisting and pulling.
• Make sure there is no interference with other parts when turning steering both clockwise and coun-

terclockwise.

• The brake piping is an important safety part. If a brake fluid leak is detected, always disassemble the

parts. Replace applicable part with a new one, if necessary.

• Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it way cause paint damage. If brake fluid is

splashed on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.

• Do not bend or twist brake hose sharply, or strongly pull it.
• When removing components, cover connections so that no dirt, dust, or other foreign matter gets in.
• Do not reuse drained brake fluid.
• After installation of the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), refill brake system with new

brake fluid. Then bleed the air from the system. Refer to
