*: SC-7
CAUTION:
+Do not use standard charge method on a battery whose specific gravity is less than 1.100.
+Set charging current to value specified in Fig. 4. If charger is not capable of producing specified
current value, set its charging current as close to that value as possible.
+Keep battery away from open flame while it is being charged.
+When connecting charger, connect leads first, then turn on charger. Do not turn on charger first,
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).

+Check battery type and determine the specified current using the table shown above.
+After starting charging, adjustment of charging current is not necessary.
CAUTION:
+Do not use quick charge method on a battery whose specific gravity is less than 1.100.
+Set initial charging current to value specified in Fig. 6. If charger is not capable of producing
specified current value, set its charging current as close to that value as possible.
+Keep battery away from open flame while it is being charged.
+When connecting charger, connect leads first, then turn on charger. Do not turn on charger first,
as this may cause a spark.
+Be careful of a rise in battery temperature because a large current flow 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 specified in Fig. 6, because charging battery over the charging
time can cause deterioration of the battery.

System DescriptionNJSC0009SEDANNJSC0009S01The alternator provides DC voltage to operate the vehicle's electrical system and to keep the battery charged.
The voltage output is controlled by the IC regulator.
Power is supplied at all times to alternator terminal 4 (S) through:
+10A fuse (No. 33, located in the fuse and fusible link box).
Terminal B supplies power to charge the battery and operate the vehicle's electrical system. Output voltage
is controlled by the IC regulator at terminal 4 (S) detecting the input voltage. The charging circuit is protected
by the 80A (A/T models with QG13DE engine and M/T models with gasoline engine) or 100A (A/T models
except QG13DE engine and diesel engine models) fusible link.
The alternator is grounded to the engine block.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
+through 10A fuse [No. 30, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
+to combination meter terminal 17 (Models with tachometer) or 22 (Models without tachometer) for the
charge warning lamp.
Ground is supplied to terminal 62 (Models with tachometer) or 61 (Models without tachometer) of the combi-
nation meter through terminal 3 (L) of the alternator. With power and ground supplied, the charge warning lamp
will illuminate. When the alternator is providing sufficient voltage with the engine running, the ground is opened
and the charge warning lamp will go off.
If the charge warning lamp illuminates with the engine running, a fault is indicated.
HATCHBACKNJSC0009S02The alternator provides DC voltage to operate the vehicle's electrical system and to keep the battery charged.
The voltage output is controlled by the IC regulator.
Power is supplied at all times to alternator terminal 4 (S) through:
+10A fuse (No. 33, located in the fuse and fusible link box).
Terminal B supplies power to charge the battery and operate the vehicle's electrical system. Output voltage
is controlled by the IC regulator at terminal 4 (S) detecting the input voltage. The charging circuit is protected
by the 80A (Gasoline engine models without daytime light system) or 100A (A/T models, diesel engine mod-
els and gasoline engine models with daytime light system) fusible link.
The alternator is grounded to the engine block.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
+through 10A fuse [No. 30, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
+to combination meter terminal 40 or 1
Ground is supplied to terminal 1 or 28 of the combination meter through terminal 3 (L) of the alternator. With
power and ground supplied, the charge warning lamp will illuminate. When the alternator is providing suffi-
cient voltage with the engine running, the ground is opened and the charge warning lamp will go off.
If the charge warning lamp illuminates with the engine running, a fault is indicated.

Trouble DiagnosesNJSC0011Before 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.
WITH IC REGULATORNJSC0011S01
SEL338V
NOTE:
+If the inspection result is OK even though the charging system is malfunctioning, check the B terminal
connection. (Check the tightening torque.)
+When field circuit is open, check condition of rotor coil, rotor slip ring and brush. If necessary, replace faulty
parts with new ones.
MALFUNCTION INDICATORNJSC0011S02The IC regulator warning function activates to illuminate ªCHARGEº warning lamp, if any of the following
symptoms occur while alternator is operating:
+Excessive voltage is produced.
+No voltage is produced.
