                                                 Bleed Valve (Front Left Lever)
 Connect a transparent hose to the brake
 caliper bleed valve and then loosen the
 bleed valve nut.
 Use a syringe to draw the brake fluid out
 through the hose.




                                                                     Bleed Valve (Pedal)
 BRAKE FLUID REFILLING                                           Bleed Valve (Front Left Lever)
 Connect a transparent hose and syringe to
 the brake caliper bleed valve and then
 loosen the bleed valve nut.
 Fill the brake reservoir with brake fluid and
 use the syringe to draw brake fluid into it
 until there is no air bubbles in the hose.
 Then, tighten the bleed valve nut.
 Torque: 0.6 kgf-m (6 N-m, 4.32 lbf-ft)

   · When drawing brake fluid with the
     syringe, the brake fluid level (pedal)
     should be kept over 1/2 of the brake        Reservoir (Front Left Lever) Bleed Valve (Pedal)
     reservoir height.                                                     Reservoir Cover (Pedal)
   · Use only the recommended brake fluid.

 Recommended Brake Fluid: DOT-4

 BRAKE SYSTEM BLEEDING
 Connect a transparent hose to the bleed
 valve and fully apply the brake lever (pedal)
 after continuously pull it several times.
 Then, loosen the bleed valve nut to bleed air
 from the brake system. Repeat these steps
 until the brake system is free of air.

   When bleeding air from the brake system,
   the brake fluid level (pedal) should be
   kept over 1/2 of the brake reservoir
