Once the vehicle is lifted, remove the front wheel to access the brake caliper; disconnect the wear sensor connector and proceed to remove only the lower pin of the brake caliper so that it can be lifted upwards to extract the old pads; clean the pad seats, connect the new wear sensor, fit the new pads, retract the caliper piston with a clamp, and refit the caliper.

Repeat the same procedure on the other wheel and pump the brake pedal until it offers the correct resistance, paying attention during the initial braking.
