Remove, disassemble, inspect, reassemble and install the calliper and note these items:

• Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if brake fluid gets on the paint, wash it off immediately with water.
• To prevent dripping, cover disconnected hose joints with rags or shop towels.
• Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
• Before reassembling, check that all parts are free of dust and other foreign particles.
• Replace parts with new ones as specified in the illustration.
• Make sure no dirt or other foreign matter is allowed to contaminate the brake fluid.
• When reusing pads, always reinstall them in their original positions to prevent loss of braking efficiency.
• Do not reuse drained brake fluid.
• Use only clean Genuine Honda DOT 3 brake fluid. Non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and shorten the life of the system.
• Do not mix different brands of brake fluid as they may not be compatible.
• Coat the piston, piston seal groove and calliper bore with clean brake fluid.
• Make sure no grease or oil gets on the brake discs or pads.
• Replace all rubber parts with new ones whenever disassembled.
• After installing the calliper, check the brake hose and line for leaks, interference and twisting.
