CHARGING SYSTEM 6H-3
CARE OF BATTERY
1) The battery is a very reliable component, but needs periodical attentions.
Keep the battery carrier clean
Prevent rust formation on the terminal posts
Keep the electrolyte up to the upper level uniformly in all cells.
When keeping battery on vehicle over a long period of time, follow instructions given below.
–Weekly, start the engine and run it until it reaches normal operating temperature with engine speed of
2000 to 3000 rpm. Make sure all electric switches are off before storing the vehicle.
–Recharge the battery twice a month to prevent it from discharging excessively. This is especially impor-
tant when ambient temperature is low.
The battery discharges even when it is not used, while vehicles are being stored. Battery electrolyte can
freeze and battery case can crack at cold ambient condition if battery is not properly charged.
2) Keep the battery cable connections clean.
The cable connections, particularly at the positive (+) terminal post, tend to become corroded. The product
of corrosion, or rust, on the mating faces of conductors resists the flow of current.
Clean the terminals and fittings periodically to ensure good metal-to-metal contact, and grease the connec-
tions after each cleaning to protect them against rusting.
3) Be always in the know as to the state of charge of the battery. The simplest way to tell the state of charge is
to carry out a hydrometer test. The hydrometer is an instrument for measuring the specific gravity (S.G.) of
the battery electrolyte. The S.G. of the electrolyte is indicative of the state of charge. Refer to “DIAGNOSIS”
of BATTERY in this section. WARNING:
Never expose battery to open flame or electric spark because of battery generate gas which is flam-
mable and explosive.
Do not allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin, fabrics, or painted surfaces as fluid is a corrosive
acid. Flush any contacted area with water immediately and thoroughly.
Batteries should always be kept out of reach of children.

JUMP STARTING IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
WITH AUXILIARY (BOOSTER) BATTERY
Both booster and discharged battery should be treated carefully when using jumper cables. Follow procedure
outlined below, being careful not to cause sparks.
1) Set parking brake and place automatic transmission in PARK (NEUTRAL on manual transmission). Turn off
ignition, turn off lights and all other electrical loads.
2) Check electrolyte level. If it is below low level line, add distilled water.
3) Attach end of one jumper cable to positive terminal of booster battery and the other end of the same cable to
positive terminal of discharged battery. (Use 12-volt battery only to jump start engine).
4) Attach one end of the remaining negative cable to negative terminal of booster battery, and the other end to
a solid engine ground (such as exhaust manifold) at least 45 cm (18 in.) away from battery of vehicle being
started.
5) Start engine of vehicle with booster battery and turn off electrical accessories. Then Start engine of the vehi-
cle with discharged battery.
6) Disconnect jumper cables in the exact reverse order.
WITH CHARGING EQUIPMENT
CAUTION:
If vehicle is manual transmission model and has a catalytic converter, do not push or tow it to start.
Damage to its emission system and/or to other parts may result.
WARNING:
Departure from these conditions or procedure described below could result in:
–Serious personal injury (particularly to eyes) or property damage from such causes as battery
explosion, battery acid, or electrical burns.
–Damage to electronic components of either vehicle.
Remove rings, watches, and other jewelry. Wear approved eye protection.
Be careful so that metal tools or jumper cables do not contact positive battery terminal (or metal in
contact with it) and any other metal on vehicle, because a short circuit could occur.
WARNING:
Do not connect negative cable directly to negative terminal of dead battery.
CAUTION:
When jump starting engine with charging equipment, be sure equipment used is 12-volt and negative
ground. Do not use 24-volt charging equipment. Using such equipment can cause serious damage to
electrical system or electronic parts.

6K-2 EXHAUST SYSTEM
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The exhaust system consists of an exhaust manifold, three-way catalytic converter (TWC) in catalyst case,
exhaust pipes, a muffler and seals, gasket and etc.
The three-way catalytic converter is an emission control device added to the exhaust system to lower the levels
of Hydrocarbon (HC), Carbon Monoxide (CO), and Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) pollutants in the exhaust gas.
MAINTENANCE
At every interval of periodic maintenance service, and when vehi-
cle is raised for other service, check exhaust system as follows:
Check rubber mountings for damage, deterioration, and out
of position.
Check exhaust system for leakage, loose connection, dent
and damage.
If bolts or nuts are loosened, tighten them to specified
torque.
Refer to “GENERAL DESCRIPTION”.
Check nearby body areas damaged, missing, or misposi-
tioned part, open seam, hole connection or any other defect
which could permit exhaust fumes to seep into vehicle.
Make sure that exhaust system components have enough
clearance from underbody to avoid overheating and possible
damage to passenger compartment carpet.
Any defect should be fixed at once. WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not touch the
exhaust system when the system is hot. Any service on
the exhaust system should be performed when the sys-
tem is cool.
