SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
To Close
1. Return the support rod to its original
position and close the front lid.
2. Press on the lock locations at the
lower portion of the front lid with the
palm of your hand to securely lock the
lid.
3. Confirm that the front lid is firmly
locked.
CAUTION
Do not pull the lever while driving. This is extremely dangerous, because
opening the front lid while driving blocks your view.
When opening the front lid, make sure to place the starter switch in the "LOCK"
position. Otherwise, your hand could be caught in the windshield wiper link and
injured.
On a vehicle with a side under-mirror, open and close the front lid carefully to
prevent the lid from interfering with the mirror if it is retracted. If the clearance
between the front lid and the side under-mirror is too small, adjust the mirror
position toward the outer side of the vehicle.
Do not use high pressure cleaning methods for the brake valve and surrounding
area inside the front lid. It could cause a faulty brake system.

ADVICE
Do not apply water directly to the air conditioning filter, or the connections for
the air conditioning pipe or heater hose inside the front lid. This could cause
water to enter the cab.

CAUTION
Confirm that the front lid is firmly locked. A dangerous condition could result if
it is not locked. For example, the front lid could fly open while driving, blocking
your view.
Do not use excessive force to close the front lid. Doing so might warp or
otherwise damage the lid.
