Bleeding Brake System: Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2002 Lexus SC 430, 2002 Lexus RX 300, 2002 Lexus LX 470, 2002 Lexus LS 430, and 2002 Lexus IS 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CAUTION: Do not let brake fluid remain on painted surfaces. Wash it off immediately. With reservoir cap removed, when depressing brake pedal, brake fluid will spray.

NOTE: If any work is done on brake system or if air in brake lines is suspected, bleed air from the system. When bleeding, keep the amount of fluid in reservoir between Min. and Max. Use only SAE J1703 or FMVSS No. 116 DOT 3 brake fluid.
