HANDLING PRECAUTIONS ON RELATED COMPONENTS
1. SRS AIRBAG
The TOYOTA RAV4 is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) airbag as an option.
Failure to carry out service operations in the correct sequence could cause the airbag system to unexœ
pectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading to a serious accident.
Further, if a mistake is made in servicing the airbag system, it is possible the airbag may fail to operate
when required.
Before performing servicing (including removal or installation of parts, inspection or replacement), be
sure to read the following items carefully, then follow the correct procedure described in the repair
manual for relevant model.

1. Never disassemble the steering wheel pad assembly.
2. Do not subject the steering wheel pad to shocks or bring magnets close to it.
3. Do not expose the steering wheel pad to high temperatures or fire.
4. If grease, cleaner, oil or water gets on the steering wheel pad, promptly wipe it off with a dry cloth.
5. Do not drop the steering wheel pad. Never use a steering wheel pad which has been dropped.
6. Never install the steering wheel and pad in another vehicle.
7. When the steering wheel pad is removed, store it on a stable, flat place with the pad surface facing upœ
wards. Never place anything on top of the pad.
8. When work on the vehicle will produce too strong a shock, first loosen the sensor lock release bolt until
it turns freely and perform the work after sensor lock occurs.
9. Even in cases where the vehicle is in a low-impact accident where the airbag is not activated, always
check the pad surface and airbag sensor part. If dents, cracks or deformation is visible, replace the airœ
bag with a new assembly.
10. When disposing of the vehicle or steering wheel, always deploy the airbag first.
11. The deployed inflator inside the steering wheel pad is hot, so dispose of it after it has been cooled by
atmospheric air. Never apply water to cool it down.
2. BRAKE SYSTEM
The brake system is one of the most important safety components. Always follow the directions and
notes given in section BR of the repair manual for the relevant model year when handling brake system
parts.
3. DRIVE TRAIN AND CHASSIS
The drive train and chassis are components that can have great effects on the running performance
and vibration resistance of the vehicle. After installing components in the sections listed in the table
below, perform alignments to ensure correct mounting angles and dimensions. Particularly accurate
repair of the body must also be done to ensure correct alignment.
HINT: Correct procedures and special tools are required for alignment. Always follow the directions
given in the repair manual for the relevant model during alignment and section DI of this manual.

4. ECU (ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT)
Locations of ECUs
Many ECUs are mounted in this vehicle.
Take the following precautions during body repair to prevent damage to the ECUs.

Before starting electric welding operations, disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery.
When the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, memory of the clock and audio
systems will be cancelled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents memorized by each
memory system. Then when work is finished, reset the clock and audio systems as before.
When the vehicle has tilt and telescopic steering, power seat and outside rear view mirror, which are all
equipped with memory function, it is not possible to make a record of the memory contents.
So when the operation is finished, it will be necessary to explain this fact to the customer, and request
the customer to adjust the features and reset the memory.

Do not expose the ECUs to ambient temperatures above 80°C (176°F).
NOTICE: If it is possible the ambient temperature may reach 80 °C (176 °F) or more, remove the ECUs
from the vehicle before starting work.

Be careful not to drop the ECUs and not to apply physical shocks to them.
4. COMPONENTS ADJACENT TO THE BODY PANELS
Various types of component parts are mounted directly on or adjacently to the body panels.
Strictly observe the following precautions to prevent damaging these components and the body panels
during handling.

Before repairing the body panels, remove their components or apply protective covers over the comœ
ponents.

Before prying components off using screwdriver or a scraper, etc., attach protective tape to the tool
tip or blade to prevent damaging the components and the body paint.

Before removing components from the outer surface of the body, attach protective tape to the body to
ensure no damage to painted areas.
HINT: Apply touch-up paint to any damaged paint surfaces.

Before drilling or cutting sections, make sure that there are no wires, etc. on the reverse side.

INSPECTION
1. CHECK PEDAL HEIGHT IS CORRECT
Pedal height from asphalt sheet:
157.6 − 167.6 mm (6.205 − 6.598 in.)
2. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST PEDAL HEIGHT
Loosen the lock nut and turn the stopper bolt until the height is
correct. Tighten the lock nut.
3. CHECK PEDAL FREEPLAY AND PUSH ROD PLAY
(a) Push in on the pedal until the beginning of clutch resis-
tance is felt.
Pedal freeplay: 5.0−15.0 mm (0.197−0.591 in.)
(b) Gently push on the pedal until the resistance begins to in-
crease a little.
Push rod play at pedal top:
1.0−5.0 mm (0.039−0.197 in.)
4. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST PEDAL FREEPLAY AND
PUSH ROD PLAY
(a) Loosen the lock nut and turn the push rod until the free-
play and push rod play are correct.
(b) Tighten the lock nut.
(c) After adjusting the pedal freeplay, check the pedal height.
(d) Connect the air duct and install the lower finish panel.
5. INSPECT CLUTCH RELEASE POINT
(a) Pull the parking brake lever and install wheel stopper.
(b) Start the engine and idle the engine.
(c) Without depressing the clutch pedal, slowly shift the shift
lever into the reverse position until the gears contact.
(d) Gradually depress the clutch pedal and measure the
stroke distance from the point the gear noise stops (re-
lease point) up to the full stroke end position.
Standard distance:
25 mm (0.98 in.) or more
(From pedal stroke end position to release point)
If the distance is not as specified.
Inspect pedal height.
Inspect push rod play and pedal freeplay.
Bleed the clutch line.
Inspect the clutch cover and disc.
