GENERAL MAINTENANCE
The owners are responsible for these maintenance and inspection items.
They can be done by the owner or they can have them done at a service shop.
These items include those which should be checked on a daily basis, those which, in most cases, do not
require (special) tools and those which are considered to be reasonable for the owner to do.
Items and procedures for general maintenance are as follows.
1. GENERAL NOTES
Maintenance items may vary from country to country. Check the owner’s manual supplement in which
the maintenance schedule is shown.
Every service item in the periodic maintenance schedule must be performed.
Periodic maintenance service must be performed according to whichever interval in the periodic main-
tenance schedule occurs first, the odometer reading (miles) or the time interval (months).
Maintenance service after the last period should be performed at the same interval as before unless
otherwise noted.
Failure to do even one item can cause the engine to run poorly and increase exhaust emissions.
2. TIRES
(a) Check the pressure with a gauge.
If necessary, adjust.
(b) Check for cuts, damage or excessive wear.
3. WHEEL NUTS
When checking the tires, check the nuts for looseness or for missing nuts.
If necessary, tighten them.
4. TIRE ROTATION
Check the owner’s manual supplement in which the maintenance schedule is shown.
5. WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
Check for wear or cracks whenever they do not wipe clean.
If necessary, replace.
6. FLUID LEAKS
(a) Check underneath for leaking fuel, oil, water or other fluid.
(b) If you smell gasoline fumes or notice any leak, have the cause found and corrected.
7. DOORS AND ENGINE HOOD
(a) Check that all doors and the tailgate operate smoothly, and that all latches lock securely.
(b) Check that the engine hood secondary latch secures the hood from opening when the primary latch
is released.

STEERING WHEEL
INSPECTION
1. CHECK THAT STEERING WHEEL FREEPLAY IS COR-
RECT
With the vehicle stopped and tires pointed straight ahead, rock
the steering wheel gently back and forth with light finger pres-
sure.
Freeplay should not exceed the maximum.
Maimum freeplay: 30 mm (1.18 in.)
4WD:
If the freeplay exceeds the maximum, adjust it in the following
procedure.
2. 4WD:
ADJUST STEERING GEAR
(a) Point the front wheels straight ahead.
(b) Loosen the adjusting screw lock nut.
(c) Turn the sector shaft adjusting screw clockwise to de-
crease steering wheel freeplay and counterclockwise to
increase it.
HINT:
Turn the adjusting screw in small increments and check the
freeplay between each adjustment.
(d) Turn the steering wheel half way around in both direc-
tions.
Check the the freeplay is correct and steering is smooth
and without rough spots.
(e) Torque the adjusting screw lock nut (See page SR−80).
3. CHECK STEERING EFFORT
(a) Center the steering wheel.
(b) Remove the steering wheel pad (See page SR−13).
(c) Start the engine and run it at idle.
(d) Measure the steering effort in both directions.
Reference: 8.3 N·m (85 kgf·cm, 73 in.·lbf)
HINT:
Be sure to consider the tire type, pressure and contact surface
before making your diagnosis.
(e) Torque the steering wheel set nut.
Torque: 35 N·m (360 kgf·cm, 26 ft·lbf)
(f) Install the steering wheel pad (See page SR−20).
