I finally got around to swapping in Deore XT M8000 brakes on my Turbo and I am so happy. It got rid of that damned squeaking sound that the Formula master cylinders make when you release them. Yay.

These instructions are nonsense, and the picture contradicts the text. The words say to press to the left, but the image says to press down on center. My model Turbo doesn't even have the brake that integrates with the computer, so it can't be involved either. How do you actually get into the...
