TOWING TIEDOWN HOOKS - FRONT /-- TIEDOWN HOOKS - REAR - TOWING Proper towing equipment is necessary to prevent dam- age to the vehicle. Laws and regulations applicable to vehicles in tow must always be observed. As a general rule, towed vehicles should be pulled with the driving wheels off the ground. If excessive damage or other conditions prevent towing the vehicle with the driving wheels off the ground, use wheel dollies. With either automatic or manual transmission. 1. Set the ignition switch in the ACC position; 2. Place the selector lever or shift lever in N (Neutral); 3. Release the parking brake. With manual transmission If the transmission, rear axle, and steering system are not damaged, the vehicle may be towed on all four wheels. If any of these components are damaged, use wheel dollies. With automatic transmission If excessive damage or other conditions prevent towing the vehicle with the driving wheels off the ground, use wheel dollies. If all four wheels are on the ground, the vehicle may be towed only forward. Don't exceed 56 kmlh {35 mph} and a distance of 56 km (35 miles); you could damage the transmission. If speed must exceed 56 kmlh (35 mph} or a towing dis- tance of 56 km (35 miles}, use one of these methods: Place the rear wheels on a dolly; Tow with the rear wheels off the ground; Disconnect the propeller shaft. If the transmission or rear axle is inoperative, two with the rear wheels off the ground. Caution Don't tow with sling-type equipment. This could damage your vehicle. Use wheel-lift or flatbed equipment. Caution Don't use the hook loops under the front for tow- ing. They are designed ONLY for tying down the vehicle when it's being transported. Using them for towing will damage the bumper. GI-I 9 Gartner Banana

K MECHANICAL SYSTEM TEST MECHANICAL SYSTEM TEST PREPARATION SST STALL TEST 49 0378 400A Gauge set, oil pressure 49 801 9 901 Gauge, oil pressure For oil pressure test For oil pressure test This test is performed to determine if there is slippage of the friction elements or malfunction of the hy- draulic components. Preparation 1. Check the engine coolant, engine oil, and ATF levels before testing. 2. Warm the engine thoroughly to raise the ATF temperature to operating level (50--80°C, 122-176°F). 3. Engage the parking brake and use wheel chocks at the front and rear of the wheels.

MECHANICAL SYSTEM TEST K Procedure ENGAGE PARKING BRAKE IDLE SPEED 1. Connect a tachometer to the engine. 2. Start the engine and check the idle speed in P range. (Refer to section F.) Idle speed: 750-450 rpm 3. Shift the selector lever to R range. Caution If the accelerator pedal is pressed for longer than 5 seconds while the brake pedal is pressed, the transmission could be damaged. Therefore, do steps 4 and 5 within 5 seconds of each oth- er. 4. Firmly depress the foot brake with the left foot, and gently depress the accelerator pedal with the right. 5. When the engine speed no longer increases, quickly read the engine speed and release the accelerator. 6. Shift the selector to N and let the engine idle for 1 minute or more to cool the ATF. 7. Perform the stall test for the following ranges in the same manner. (1 ) D range u (2) S range (3) L range Engine stall speed: 1,90&2,lOO rpm Gartner Banana

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID (ATF) K AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID (ATF) ATF Inspection Level 1. Park the vehicle on level ground. 2. Apply the parking brake and position wheel chocks se- curely to prevent the vehicle from rolling. 3. Warm up the engine until the ATF reaches 60-70°C (1 40-1 58°F). 4. While depressing the brake pedal, shift the selector lever to each range (P-L), pausing momentarily in each range. 5. Shift back to P. Note In some cases it may be necessary to inspect the ATF in the cool range 15-25°C (59-77"F) before warm- ing up the engine. 6. Ensure that the ATF level is in the HOT (65°C) range. Add ATF to the specification, if necessary. ATF type: DexronQII or M-I11 Condition Determine whether the transmission should be disas- sembled by noting. 1. If the ATF is muddy or varnished. 2. If the ATF smells strange or unusual. Gartner Banana
