CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

for HV Model:

  • When removing or installing the front disc brake caliper assembly, pushing back the disc brake piston may cause a large clearance between the brake pads and brake disc.

Make sure to clear any DTCs after performing this procedure.
  • While the auxiliary battery is connected, even if the power switch is off, the brake control system activates when the brake pedal is depressed or any door courtesy switch turns on. Therefore, when servicing the brake system components, do not operate the brake pedal or open/close the doors while the auxiliary battery is connected.
