The pictures shown in this document may differ from the original  .

The brake discs have wear indicator plates in the friction surfaces. The wear indicator plates (six on each brake disc) are arranged at three points close to the outer diameter, offset by 120° -arrows-  . The three wear indicator plates on each friction surface (three on the inside and three on the outside) are positioned directly opposite each other. Each wear indicator is approx. 1.2 cm2 . The wear indicators are barely visible on new brake discs.
