Parking Brake Inspection and Adjustment

Inspection

1. Pull the parking brake lever (A) with 196 N (20 kgf, 44 lbf) of force to fully apply the parking brake. The parking brake lever should be locked within the specified number of clicks.

   Lever locked clicks:
   | Rear disc brake type: | 6 to 8
   | Rear drum in disc brake type: | 5 to 7

1. If the number of lever clicks is not as specified, adjust the parking brake.
   NOTE:
   - Rear drum in disc brake type: Minor parking brake lever adjustments (1 to 2 clicks) can be made with the adjusting nut. If a larger adjustment is required, follow the major adjustment procedure using the adjuster at the parking brake drum.
   - After installing new parking brake shoes and/or new brake disc/drum, make sure you drive the vehicle for ‘‘break-in''.
