c;SCOPE OF MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
DEFINITION OF TERMS
SERVICING EXPLANATIONSSTANDARD VALUE
bThis manual provides explanations, etc. concerning
procedures for the inspection, maintenance, repair
and servicing of the subject model. Unless other-
wise specified, each service procedure covers all
models. Procedures covering specific models are
identified by the model codes, or similar designation
(engine type, transaxle type, etc.). A description of
these designations is covered in this unit under
“VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION”.
SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES“Service Adjustment Procedures” are procedures
for performing inspections and adjustments of
particularly important locations with regard to the
construction and for maintenance and servicing, but
other inspections (for looseness, play, cracking,
damage, etc.) must also be performed.
SERVICE PROCEDURESThe service steps are arranged in numerical order
and attentions to be paid in performing vehicle
service are described in detail in SERVICE POINTS.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Troubleshootings are classified into master trouble-
shooting and group troubleshooting and located as
follows:
The master troubleshooting is prepared when the
trouble symptom relates to two or more groups and
given in MASTER TROUBLESHOOTING.
The group troubleshooting guide is prepared for
causes of problems related to that individual groupIndicates the value used as the standard for judging
the quality of a part or assembly on inspection or the
value to which the part or assembly is corrected and
adjusted. It is given by tolerance.
LIMITShows the standard for judging the quality of a part
or assembly on inspection and means the maximum
or minimum value within which the part or assembly
must be kept functionally or in strength. It is a value
established outside the range of standard value.
REFERENCE VALUEIndicates the adjustment value prior to starting the
work (presented in order to facilitate assembly and
adjustment procedures, and so they can be com-
pleted in a shorter time).
CAUTIONIndicates the presentation of information particularly
vital to the worker during the performance of
maintenance’ and servicing procedures in order to
avoid the possibility of injury to the worker; or
damage to component
.parts, or a reduction of
component or vehicle function or performance, etc.
INDICATION OF TIGHTENING TORQUEThe tightening torque shown in this manual is a
basic value with a tolerance of
+lO% except the
following cases when the upper and lower limits of
tightening torque are given.
(1) The tolerance for the basic value is within
+ I no/-
only; a troubleshooting guide is prepared for eachI iv,“.appropriate group.(2) Special bolts or the like are in use.
(3) Special tighteningmethods are used.
MODEL INDICATIONS
The following abbreviations are used in this manual for classification of model types.M/T:Indicates the manual transaxle, or models equipped with the manual transaxle.
A/T:Indicates the automatic transaxle, or models equipped with the automatic transaxle.

THEFT PROTECTION.MOOCIACIn order to protect against theft, a Vehicle Identification
Number
(VIN) is stamped in, or attached as a label to, the
following major parts of the engine and transaxle, as well as
main outer panels:
Engine cylinder block, Transaxle housing, Fender, Door, Quar-
ter panel, Hood, Liftgate, Bumpers
In addition, a theft-protection label is attached
to‘ replacement
parts for the body outer panel main components, and the same
data are stamped into replacement parts for the engine and the
transaxle.
Cautions regarding panel repairs
1. When repainting original parts, do so after first mask-
ing the theft-protection label, and, after painting, be
sure to peel off the masking tape.
2. The theft-protection label for replacement parts is
covered by masking tape, so such parts can be paintedas is. The masking tape should be removed after
painting is finished.
3.The theft-protection label should not be removed fromoriginal parts or replacement parts.

PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERWCEMOOOAAOSERVICING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
1. Note the following before proceeding with work on the
electrical system.
Note that the following must never be done:
Unauthorized modifications of any electrical device or
wiring, because such modifications might lead to a vehicle
malfunction, over-capacity or short-circuit that could result
in a fire in the vehicle.
2. When servicing the electrical system, disconnect the
negative cable terminal from the battery.
Caution1. Before connecting or disconnecting the negative
cable, be sure to turn off the ignition switch and the
lighting switch.(If this is not done, there is the possibility of
semiconductor parts being damaged.)
2. After completion of the work steps [when the
battery’s negative (-) terminal is connected], warm
up the engine and allow it to idle for approximately
five minutes under the conditions described below,in order to stabilize the engine control conditions,
and then check to be sure that the idling is
satisfactory.
Engine coolant temperature: 80 - 95°C (176 - 203°F)
Lights, electric fans, accessories: OFF
Transaxle: neutral position(A/T models: “N” or “P”)
Steering wheel: neutral (center) position
VEHICLE WASHING
If high-pressure car-washing equipment or steam car-washing
equipment is used to wash the vehicle, be sure to maintain the
spray nozzle at a distance of at least 300 mm (12 in.) from any
plastic parts and all opening parts (doors, luggage compart-
ment, etc.).
