Note:
• Make thorough checks to be sure that the block (front, rear) is free of melting, thermal deformation,
cracking, and yellowing because of leakage. If an abnormal condition is noted, replace it with a new
part without delay.
• Inspect and clean both outside and inside of the block (front, rear).
• Do NOT use a cloth coated with metal powder.
• Do NOT use a moist cloth. Dry wipe with lint-free paper, and use alcohol. Make sure that the part is
