CAUTION:
+Do not use standard charge method on a battery whose speci®c gravity is less than 1.100.
+Set charging current to value speci®ed in Fig. 4. If charger is not capable of producing speci®ed
current value, set its charging current as close to that value as possible.
+Keep battery away from open ¯ame while it is being charged.
+When connecting charger, connect leads ®rst, then turn on charger. Do not turn on charger ®rst,
as this may cause a spark.
+If battery temperature rises above 60ÉC (140ÉF), stop charging. Always charge battery when its
temperature is below 60ÉC (140ÉF).

CAUTION:
+Do not use quick charge method on a battery whose speci®c gravity is less than 1.100.

+Keep battery away from open ¯ame while it is being charged.
+When connecting charger, connect leads ®rst, then turn on charger. Do not turn on charger ®rst,
as this may cause a spark.
+Be careful of a rise in battery temperature because a large current ¯ow is required during quick-
charge operation.
If battery temperature rises above 60ÉC (140ÉF), stop charging. Always charge battery when its
temperature is below 60ÉC (140ÉF).
+Do not exceed the charging time speci®ed in Fig. 6, because charging battery over the charging
time can cause deterioration of the battery.

Trouble Diagnoses
Before conducting an alternator test, make sure that the battery is fully charged. A 30-volt voltmeter and suit-
able test probes are necessary for the test. The alternator can be checked easily by referring to the Inspec-
tion Table.
+Before starting, inspect the fusible link.
+Use fully charged battery.

minal connection. (Check the tightening torque.)
+When ®eld circuit is open, check condition of rotor coil, rotor slip ring and brush. If necessary,
replace faulty parts with new ones.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR
The IC regulator warning function activates to illuminate ``CHARGE'' warning lamp, if any of the following
symptoms occur while alternator is operating:
+Excessive voltage is produced.
+No voltage is produced.

Removal and Installation
CAUTION:
+Start service operation after removing the negative termi-
nal from the battery.
+Also remove the undercover, if equipped, before servicing.
Disassembly
REAR COVER
CAUTION:
Rear cover may be hard to remove because a ring is used to
lock outer race of rear bearing. To facilitate removal of rear
cover, heat just bearing box section with a 200W soldering
iron.
Do not use a heat gun, as it can damage diode assembly.

Bulb Replacement
The headlamp is a semi-sealed beam type which uses a replace-
able halogen bulb. The bulb can be replaced from the engine com-
partment side without removing the headlamp body.
+Grasp only the plastic base when handling the bulb. Never
touch the glass envelope.
1. Disconnect the battery cable.
2. Turn the bulb retaining ring counterclockwise until it is free from
the headlamp re¯ector, and then remove it.
3. Disconnect the harness connector from the back side of the
bulb.
4. Remove the headlamp bulb carefully. Do not shake or rotate
the bulb when removing it.
5. Install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Do not leave headlamp re¯ector without bulb for a long period
of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc. entering headlamp body
may affect the performance of the headlamp. Remove head-
lamp bulb from the headlamp re¯ector just before a replace-
ment bulb is installed.
Aiming Adjustment
When performing headlamp aiming adjustment, use an aiming
machine, aiming wall screen or headlamp tester. Aimers should be
in good repair, calibrated and operated in accordance with respec-
tive operation manuals.
If any aimer is not available, aiming adjustment can be done as
follows:
For details, refer to the regulations in your own country.
a. Keep all tires in¯ated to correct pressures.
b. Place vehicle and tester on one and same ¯at surface.
c. See that there is no-load in vehicle (coolant, engine oil
®lled up to correct level and full fuel tank) other than the
driver (or equivalent weight placed in driver's position).
CAUTION:
Be sure aiming switch is set to ``0'' when performing aiming
adjustment on vehicles equipped with headlamp aiming con-
trol.
