BREAK-IN PROCEDURE

BREAK-IN IS CRITICAL FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE

The break-in procedure is essential to ensure optimal brake performance. Proper break-in establishes an even layer of friction material deposited on the rotors from the brake pads, which is crucial for effective braking. Follow these steps carefully to achieve the best results:

1. Initial Stops:

   • Complete 5 moderate to aggressive stops from 40 mph down to 10 mph in rapid succession without letting the brakes cool.
   • Do not come to a complete stop. If you must stop, shift the vehicle into park or leave enough space in front to allow the vehicle to roll slightly while waiting for the traffic light.
   • The rotors will be very hot, and holding down the brake pedal can create an imprint on the rotor, potentially leading to brake judder.

2. Secondary Stops:

   • Continue by completing 5 moderate stops from 35 mph down to 5 mph in rapid succession without letting the brakes cool.
   • Expect to smell some resin as the brakes heat up.

3. Cooling Stage:

   • After completing the stops, drive the vehicle for about 5 minutes at moderate speed without heating the brakes excessively and without coming to a complete stop. This allows the brakes to cool down gradually.

4. Post Break-In:

   • Once the brakes have cooled to standard operating temperature, you may use the brakes normally.
   • Never cool your brakes with water, as this can cause damage.
