GENERAL MAINTENANCE
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. WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID
Check that there is sufficient fluid in the tank.
3. ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL
Check that the coolant level is between the FULL and LOW lines on the see-through reservoir.
4. RADIATOR AND HOSES
(a) Check that the front of the radiator is clean and not blocked with leaves, dirt or bugs.
(b) Check the hoses for cracks, kinks, rot or loose connections.
5. BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
Check that the electrolyte level of all battery cells is between the upper and lower level lines on the case.
If level is low, add distilled water only.
6. BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUID LEVELS
(a) Check that the brake fluid level is near the upper level line on the see-through reservoir.
(b) Check that the clutch fluid level is within ±5 mm (0.20 in.). of the reservoir hem.
7. ENGINE DRIVE BELTS
Check drive belt for fraying, cracks, wear or oiliness.
8. ENGINE OIL LEVEL
Check the level on the dipstick with the engine turned off.
9. POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
(a) Check the level.
(b) The level should be in the HOT or COLD range depending on the fluid temperature.
10. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL
(a) Park the vehicle on a level surface.
(b) With the engine idling and the parking brake applied, shift the selector into all positions from the P to
L, and then shift into the P position.
(c) Turn and pull out the dipstick and wipe off the fluid with a clean rag. Reinsert the dipstick and check
that the fluid level is in the HOT range.
(d) Do this check with the fluid at normal driving temperature (70 - 80°C, 158 - 176°F).
If the If the level is at the low side, add fluid.
NOTICE:
Do not overfill.
HINT:
Wait until the engine cools down (approx. 30 min.) before checking the fluid level after extended driving at
high speeds, in hot weather, in heavy traffic or pulling a trailer.
11. EXHAUST SYSTEM
Visually inspect for cracks, holes or loose supports.
If any change in the sound of the exhaust or smell of the exhaust fumes is noticed, have the cause located
and corrected.

ADJUSTMENT
1. INSPECT WASHER NOZZLE
(a) While operating the washer, check whether the upper
point where the washer fluid hits the windshield and the
upsurge area are within the range indicated by the
hatched line.
A: Approx. 150 mm (5.91 in.)
B: Approx. 50 mm (1.99 in.)
C: Approx. 0 - 50 mm (0 - 1.99 in.)
D: Approx. 30 mm (1.18 in.)
E: Approx. 20 mm (0.79 in.)
(b) Check if the lower point where the washer fluid hits the
windshield is within the range of the wiping pattern (the
area of the glass which is wiped by the wiper blades).
2. ADJUST WASHER NOZZLE
Using a tool like that one shown in the illustration, change the
direction of the nozzle hole to adjust the point where washer
fluid hits the windshield.
