Taking Care of the Unexpected

After installing the wheel, apply the
brake several times. Check for free
wheel rotation after the brake is
released. Recheck the wheel if the brake

If a torque wrench was not used for
installation, see your Honda dealer as
soon as possible to verify proper
assembly. Improper assembly may lead
to loss of braking capability.
