Precautions for Checking and Adjustments
WARNING
Make sure to turn off the engine and remove the key from the starter switch
before performing any checks.
Pull firmly on the parking brake lever and put the transmission in neutral. Make
sure the gearshift lever is in "N".
Select a place with a solid and level surface to perform the checking and
maintenance work. Make sure to chock the wheels. It would be very dangerous
if the vehicle started to move.
To prevent personal injury, keep hands, tools and clothing clear of the engine
cooling fan when the engine is running.
When raising the vehicle, use a suitable jack, not the one provided on the
vehicle.
After raising the vehicle and before going underneath to perform work, make
sure the vehicle is supported with jack stands.
When performing work on the electrical system, begin by turning the starter
switch to the "LOCK" position, wait at least 1 minute, and then disconnect the
negative cable from the negative terminal on battery. If the negative cable is
disconnected within 1 minute, the engine control module may malfunction.
The engine, exhaust pipe and radiator will be hot immediately after the vehicle is
driven. Be careful around these parts to prevent burns. Perform all checks when
the engine is cold.
Do not perform work near an open flame or other heat sources.
When working on the fuel line or fuel filter, remove the fuel tank filler cap. The
fuel system is under pressure and the fuel will overspill unless the pressure is
relieved, possibly leading to combustion or a fire.
Do not let the engine run in poorly ventilated garages or sheds. This could cause
carbon monoxide poisoning.
