Bedding in the brake pads

• New brake pads require a slightly longer bedding−in period for PCCB brake discs than cast iron brake
discs.
• In general, the following applies: New brake pads must be broken in (bedding−in period), their
optimum braking effect is therefore not reached until after a few hundred kilometers. The slightly
reduced braking effect must be compensated for by increased pressure on the brake pedal. The same
also applies after a brake disc change.
