Safety Instructions
Whenever possible, use a lift or pit when working
beneath vehicle, in preference to jacking. Chock
wheels as well as applying parking brake.
Jacking
Always use the recommended jacking points.
Always ensure that any lifting apparatus has
sufficient load capacity for the weight to be lifted.
Ensure the vehicle is standing on level ground prior
to lifting or jacking.
Apply the handbrake and chock the wheels.
WARNING: Do not work on or under a vehicle
supported only by a jack. Always support the
vehicle on safety stands.
Do not leave tools, lifting equipment, spilt oil, etc.
around or on the work bench area. Always keep a
clean and tidy work area.
Brake shoes and pads
Always fit the correct grade and specification of
brake linings. When renewing brake pads and brake
shoes, always replace as complete axle sets.Brake hydraulics
Observe the following recommendations when
working on the brake system:
lAlways use two spanners when loosening or
tightening brake pipe or hose connections.
lEnsure that hoses run in a natural curve and are
not kinked or twisted.
lFit brake pipes securely in their retaining clips
and ensure that the pipe cannot contact a
potential chafing point.
lContainers used for brake fluid must be kept
absolutely clean.
lDo not store brake fluid in an unsealed
container, it will absorb water and in this
condition would be dangerous to use due to a
lowering of its boiling point.
lDo not allow brake fluid to be contaminated with
mineral oil, or put new brake fluid in a container
which has previously contained mineral oil.
lDo not re-use brake fluid removed from the
system.
lAlways use clean brake fluid or a recommended
alternative to clean hydraulic components.
lAfter disconnection of brake pipes and hoses,
immediately fit suitable blanking caps or plugs to
prevent the ingress of dirt.
lOnly use the correct brake fittings with
compatible threads.
lObserve absolute cleanliness when working
with hydraulic components.
Cooling system caps and plugs
Extreme care is necessary when removing
expansion tank caps and coolant drain or bleed
screws when the engine is hot, especially if it is
overheated. To avoid the possibility of scalding,
allow the engine to cool before attempting removal.
Air suspension system
Whilst working on the air suspension system, eye
protection must be worn at all times.

GENERAL INFORMATION
03-12
Self-locking bolts and screws
Self-locking bolts and screws, i.e. nylon patched or
trilobular thread can be re-used providing resistance
can be felt when the locking portion enters the female
thread.
Nylon patched bolts and screws have a locking agent
pre-applied to the threads. They are identified by the
presence of a coloured section of thread which
extends for up to 180° around the thread.
Trilobular bolts (i.e. Powerlok) have a special thread
form which creates a slight interference with the
thread of the hole or nut into which it is screwed.
DO NOT re-use self-locking fasteners in critical
locations (e.g. engine bearings, flywheel). Always
use the correct replacement self-locking nut, bolt or
screw.
DO NOT fit non self-locking fasteners in applications
where a self-locking nut, bolt or screw is specified.Nut identification
A nut with an ISO metric thread is marked on one
face or on one of the flats of the hexagon with the
strength grade symbol 8, 12, or 14. Some nuts with a
strength grade 4, 5 or 6 are also marked and some
have the metric symbol M on the flat opposite the
strength grade marking.
A clock face system is sometimes used as an
alternative method of indicating the strength grade.
The external chamfers or a face of the nut is marked
in a position relative to the appropriate hour mark on
a clock face to indicate the strength grade.
A dot is used to locate the 12 o'clock position and a
dash to indicate the strength grade. If the grade is
above 12, two dots identify the 12 o'clock position.
When tightening a slotted or castellated nut, never
loosen it to insert a split pin except where
recommended as part of an adjustment. If difficulty is
experienced, alternative washers or nuts should be
selected, or the washer thickness reduced.
Where bearing pre-load is involved, nuts should be
tightened in accordance with special instructions.

GENERAL INFORMATION
03-15
Hose clips
Markings (4) are usually provided on the hose to
indicate the correct clip position. If no markings are
provided, position the clip directly behind the
retaining lip at the end of the stub as shown. Worm
drive clips should be oriented with the crimped side
of the drive housing (5) facing towards the end of the
hose, or the hose may become pinched between the
clip and the stub pipe retaining lip. Worm drive clips
should be tightened to 3 Nm (2 lbf.ft) unless
otherwise stated. Ensure that hose clips do not foul
adjacent components.
Heat protection
Always ensure that heatshields and protective
sheathing are in good condition. Replace if damage
is evident. Particular care must be taken when
routing hoses close to hot engine components, such
as the exhaust manifold and the Exhaust Gas
Recirculation (EGR) pipe. Hoses will relax and
deflect slightly when hot; ensure this movement is
taken into account when routing and securing hoses.
Rolling Road Testing
General
IMPORTANT: Use a four wheel rolling road for
brake testing if possible.
WARNING: Do not attempt to test ABS function
on a rolling road.
Four wheel rolling road
Provided that front and rear rollers are rotating at
identical speeds and that normal workshop safety
standards are applied, there is no speed restriction
during testing except any that may apply to the tyres.
Before testing a vehicle with anti-lock brakes on a
four wheel rolling road, disconnect the ABS
modulator. The ABS function will not work, the ABS
warning light will illuminate. Normal braking will be
available.
Two wheel rolling road
Up to 03MY
ABS will not function on a two wheel rolling road. The
ABS light will illuminate during testing. Normal
braking will be available.
If brake testing on a two wheel rolling road is
necessary, the following precautions should be
taken:
lPropeller shaft to the rear axle is removed.
lNeutral selected in gearbox.
When checking brakes, run engine at idle speed to
maintain servo vacuum.
From 03MY
The differential lock must be engaged for two wheel
rolling road testing. It will also be necessary to
disconnect the propeller shaft from the transfer box
output shaft driving the axle whose wheels are NOT
on the rolling road. Additionally, the ETC system
must be deactivated by either removing the 10 amp
fuse (Number 28, labelled ABS in the main fuse box)
or disconnecting the ABS modulator pump. This
must be done with the ignition OFF ; a fault in the
ABS system may still be recorded.
WARNING; VEHICLES NOT FITTED WITH A
DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST NOT BE TESTED
ON A ROLLING ROAD WHERE THE ROLLERS
ARE DRIVEN BY THE VEHICLE.

GENERAL INFORMATION
03-22
Rotary coupler
Always follow the Repair procedure for fitting the
rotary coupler.
Comply with all safety and installation procedures to
ensure the system functions correctly. Observe the
following precautions:
lDo not install a rotary coupler if it is suspected to
be defective.
lDo not attempt to service, modify or repair a
rotary coupler.
lDo not cut, splice or modify the wires attached
to yellow SRS connector and lead.
lAlways ensure the rotary coupler connectors
are mated correctly and securely fastened.
lAlways ensure the battery is disconnected
before working on the rotary coupler.
lAlways ensure the rotary coupler is removed
and installed in its centered position and with the
front road wheels in the straight ahead position.
lIf a new rotary coupler is being installed, ensure
the locking tab holding the coupler's rotational
position is not broken; units with a broken
locking tab should not be used.
Warning labels
Warning symbols are displayed at various positions
in the vehicle (either in a suitable prominent position
such as driver and passenger side glass, or attached
to the component itself) to indicate SRS items which
must be treated with particular care. Exact positions
of SRS warning labels may vary dependent on
legislation and market trends.
WARNING: It is imperative that before any work
is undertaken on the SRS system the appropriate
information is read thoroughly.Side window label

Airbag and pretensioner deployment
Deployment procedures and precautions as detailed
in this manual should be strictly adhered to. Only
personnel who have undergone the appropriate
training should undertake deployment of airbag and
pretensioner modules. The following precautions
must be complied with:
lOnly use deployment equipment approved for
the intended purpose.
lBefore beginning deployment procedure,
ensure deployment tool functions properly by
performing the self test procedure detailed in
SRS section of this manual.
lDeployment of airbag/ pretensioner modules
should be performed in a well ventilated area
which has been designated for the purpose.
lEnsure airbag/pretensioner modules are not
damaged or ruptured before attempting to
deploy.
lNotify the relevant authorities of intention to
deploy airbag and pretensioner units.
lWhen deploying airbag pretensioner units,
ensure that all personnel are at least 15 metres
(45 feet) away from the deployment zone.
lEnsure deployment tool is connected correctly,
in compliance with the instructions detailed in
the SRS section of this manual. In particular,
ensure deployment tool is NOT connected to
battery supply before connecting to airbag
module connector.
lWhen deploying seat belt pretensioners, ensure
pretensioner unit is secured correctly to the
seat.
lWhen removing deployed airbag modules and
pretensioner units, wear protective clothing.
Use gloves and seal deployed units in a plastic
bag.
lFollowing deployment of any component of the
SRS system within the vehicle, all SRS
components must be replaced. DO NOT re-use
or salvage any parts of the SRS system.
lDo not lean over airbag module when
connecting deployment equipment.
If a vehicle is to be scrapped, undeployed airbag
modules and pretensioner units must be manually
deployed. In this case airbags can be deployed in the
vehicle; before deployment, ensure the airbag
module is secure within its correct mounting position.
Deployment of the driver's airbag in the vehicle may
damage the steering wheel; if the vehicle is not being
scrapped, deploy the module outside of the vehicle.
WARNING: During deployment parts of the
airbag module become hot enough to burn you.
Wait 30 minutes after deployment before
touching the airbag module.
SRS Component Replacement Policy
The following information details the policy for
replacement of SRS components; either as a result
of a vehicle accident or as a result of vehicle age.
Impacts which do not deploy the airbags or pre-
tensioners
Check for structural damage in the area of the
impact, paying particular attention to bumper
armatures, longitudinals, crash cans and bracketry.
Impacts which deploy the airbags or pre-
tensioners
The replacement and inspection policy is dependent
on the type and severity of of the crash condition.
The following guidelines are the minimum that
should be exercised as a result of the deployment of
specific SRS components.
If the front airbags or seat belt pre-tensioners are
deployed, the following parts must be replaced:
lSRS DCU.
lDriver airbag module
lPassenger airbag module
lFront seat belt buckle pre-tensioners
lRotary coupler
lDriver's seat belt retractor
lFlyleads (where applicable) connecting airbags
and seat belt pre-tensioners to SRS harness
In addition, the following should be inspected for
damage and replaced as necessary:
lFront passenger's seat belt retractor (webbing,
tongue latching, 'D' loop, body anchorage point)
lRear seat belt buckles (webbing, buckle covers,
body anchorage and tongue latching function)
lFascia moulding adjacent to passenger airbag
module
lSteering wheel (if damage is evident)
lFront seat frames and head restraints (if there is
evidence of damage to the seat frame or
cushion pan)
lSteering column (if adjustment is lost or there
are signs of collapse)
lThird row seats, seat belts and head restraints
(where fitted). Check third row seat latching
mechanism operates correctly.
Periodic replacement of SRS components
The performance of the propellants within airbags
and pre-tensioners will deteriorate over a period of
time. As a result, it is essential that the airbags are
replaced after 10 years and seat belt pre-tensioners
are replaced after 15 years in order to maintain
occupant safety.
