GENERAL MAINTENANCE
These are maintenance and inspection items which are considered to be the owner's responsibility.
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 an 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.

EVAP SYSTEM OPERATION INFORMATION ± EG005-01 April 27, 2001
Page 8 of 14
Purge VSV Operation ± P0441
At a predetermined point, the ECM closes
the CCV and opens the bypass VSV
causing vacuum to increase in the entire
EVAP system.
The ECM continues to operate the purge
VSV until the vacuum is increased to a
specified point at which time the ECM
closes the purge VSV (see Figure 2).
If the vacuum did not increase, or if the
vacuum increased beyond the specified
limit, the ECM judges the purge VSV and
related components to be faulty.
Hole Detection P0440 and P0442
The rate of pressure increase as detected
by the vapor pressure signal indicates the
if there is a leak and if it is a large or
small leak.
After purge VSV operation, the purge
VSV is turned off sealing the vacuum in
the system and the ECM begins to
monitor the pressure increase (see Figure
3). Some increase is normal. A very rapid,
sharp increase in pressure indicates a
leak in the EVAP system and sets the
DTC P0440.
This monitoring method is also able to
distinguish what is called the small leak
detection. A pressure rise just above
normal indicates a very small hole and
will set the DTC P0442.Except ECHO

ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL
(ABS)
ABS is a brake system designed for the purpose to improve the operating ability securing the stability of the vehicle by
preventing the looking±up of the vehicle controlling the wheel cylinder pressure of all the four wheels at the time of sudden
braking.
1. INPUT SIGNALS
(1) Speed sensor signal
The speed of the wheels is detected and input to TERMINALS FL+, FR+, RL+, and RR+ of the ABS and traction ECU.
(2) Stop light SW signal
A signal is input to TERMINAL STP of the ABS and traction ECU when brake pedal is depressed.
2. SYSTEM OPERATION
When the wheels are to be locked±up, the solenoid inside the actuator will be controlled by the signal from the ABS and
traction ECU and the brake fluid in the wheel cylinder will flow through the reservoir and reduce the hydraulic pressure.
While the ABS is in operation, as the ABS and traction ECU always outputs the operation signal to the pump inside the
actuator, brake fluid stored inside the reservoir will be suctioned up by the pump inside the actuator and returned to the
master cylinder.
When the hydraulic pressure of the wheel cylinder is decompressed or increased until the necessary hydraulic pressure, the
solenoid inside the actuator is controlled by the control signal from the ABS and traction ECU and as a result, hydraulic
pressure of the wheel cylinder will be closed at both routes of the master cylinder and reservoir sides and the hydraulic
pressure of the wheel cylinder will become to be in the holding condition.
If the increase of hydraulic pressure volume of the wheel cylinder becomes necessary, with the control signal from the ABS
and traction ECU, the solenoid inside the actuator will be controlled and become the same condition as usual and the brake
fluid of the master cylinder will be sent to the wheel cylinder and will increase the hydraulic pressure of the wheel cylinder. At
this time, in the case that the brake fluid stays left in the reservoir, it will be sucked up by the pump inside the actuator and
will be sent to the wheel cylinder.
Also, increasing speed of the hydraulic pressure is controlled by outputting the increasing and the said holding one after
another.
(Traction control)
Traction control system is designed to perform the engine output control by the fuel cut and hydraulic pressure control of
driving wheel brake and control the spinning of the driving wheels. By doing this, it improves starting acceleration and
operating ability of the vehicle securing the driving ability in accordance with the road surface condition.
3. TRACTION CONTROL OPERATION
Estimating the vehicle speed from the rear wheel speed, comparing it with the front, driving wheel speed and judging the grip
condition of the driving wheels. From the estimated vehicle speed, target speed of the driving speed will be set. When the
front, driving wheel speed exceeds the control starting speed, it judges that the tire slip is occurred and performs the fuel cut
cylinder number control and brake control and then adjust to make the front wheel speed become the traction control target
speed. Controlling of the traction control will be completed when the vehicle move onto the road where the driving wheels will
not have a tire slip or when the driver decelerate.
