DESCRIPTIONNLEC0623A water draining cock is on the lower side and a priming pump for
bleeding air is on the upper side.
SEF375Y
AIR BLEEDINGNLEC06241. After the repair, bleed air from the piping by pumping the prim-
ing pump up and down until it becomes heavy.
2. To start the engine, rotate the starter for a maximum of 30
seconds. To start the engine more quickly, crank the engine
while pumping the priming pump (requires two workers).
3. If the engine does not start after rotating the starter for a maxi-
mum of 30 seconds, stop it once, and pump the priming pump
again until it becomes heavy.
4. Rotate the starter again until the engine starts running.
5. After the engine starts, let it idle for at least 1 minute to stabi-
lize the behavior.
+When air is bled completely, the pumping of the priming
pump suddenly becomes heavy. Stop the operation at that
time.
+If it is difficult to bleed air by the pumping of the priming
pump (the pumping of the priming pump does not become
heavy), disconnect the fuel supply hose between the fuel
filter and the injection pump. Then, perform the operation
described above, and make sure that fuel comes out. (Use
a pan, etc. so as not to spill fuel. Do not let fuel get on
engine and other parts.) After that, connect the hose, then
bleed air again.
+Start engine and let it idle for at least one minute after
performing air bleeding.
WATER DRAININGNLEC0625+If the MI lights up (not flashes) during the engine operation,
drain the water as follows. (If fuel filter switch is equipped.)
1. Remove the fuel filter, filter bracket, protector assembly from
the dash panel as follows.
a. Remove the air cleaner case (upper), air duct assembly, and
vacuum hose for brake booster (between the vacuum pump
and vacuum pipe).
CAUTION:
After the duct is removed, cover the opening with gum tape,
etc. to prevent foreign object from getting into the engine
during the operation.
b. Disconnect the water level warning sensor harness connector.
c. Remove the mounting nuts on the dash panel, then remove the
fuel filter, filter bracket, and protector assembly from the dash
panel.
+It is not necessary to disconnect the fuel hose.
2. Using a tool such as a pliers, loosen the water draining cock
at the bottom of the water level warning sensor located under
the fuel filter.

The security indicator is located on the instrument panel. The indi-
cator blinks when the ignition switch is in“OFF”or“ACC”position.
Therefore, NATS warns outsiders that the vehicle is equipped with
the anti-theft system.
+When NATS detects trouble, the security indicator lamp lights
up while ignition switch is in“ON”position.
This lighting up indicates that the anti-theft is not functioning,
so prompt service is required.
+When servicing NATS (trouble diagnoses, system initialization
and additional registration of other NATS ignition key IDs),
CONSULT-II hardware and CONSULT-II NATS software is
necessary.
Regarding the procedures of NATS initialization and NATS
ignition key ID registration, refer to CONSULT-II operation
manual, NATS.
Therefore, CONSULT-II NATS software (program card and
operation manual) must be kept strictly confidential to main-
tain the integrity of the anti-theft function.
+When servicing NATS (trouble diagnoses, system initialization
and additional registration of other NATS ignition key IDs), it
may be necessary to re-register original key identification.
Therefore, be sure to receive all keys from vehicle owner. A
maximum of five key IDs can be registered into NATS.
+When failing to start the engine first time using the key of
NATS, start as follows.
a) Leave the ignition key in“ON”position for approximately 5
seconds.
b) Turn ignition key to“OFF”or“LOCK”position and wait approxi-
mately 5 seconds.
c) Repeat step 1 and 2 again.
d) Restart the engine while keeping the key separate from any
others on key-chain.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONSNLGI0001S03+Do not operate the engine for an extended period of time
without proper exhaust ventilation.
Keep the work area well ventilated and free of any inflammable
materials. Special care should be taken when handling any
inflammable or poisonous materials, such as gasoline, refrig-
erant gas, etc. When working in a pit or other enclosed area,
be sure to properly ventilate the area before working with haz-
ardous materials.
Do not smoke while working on the vehicle.
SGI231
+Before jacking up the vehicle, apply wheel chocks or other tire
blocks to the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving. After
jacking up the vehicle, support the vehicle weight with safety
stands at the points designated for proper lifting before work-
ing on the vehicle.
These operations should be done on a level surface.
+When removing a heavy component such as the engine or
transaxle, be careful not to lose your balance and drop them.
Also, do not allow them to strike adjacent parts, especially the
brake tubes and master cylinder.

Bleeding Hydraulic SystemNLST00141. Raise front end of vehicle until wheels are clear of the ground.
2. Add fluid into oil tank to specified level. Then quickly turn steer-
ing wheel fully to right and left and lightly touch steering stop-
pers.
Repeat steering wheel operation until fluid level no longer
decreases.
3. Start engine.
Repeat step 2. above.
+Incomplete air bleeding will cause the following to occur. When
this happens, bleed air again.
a) Air bubbles in reservoir tank
b) Clicking noise in oil pump
c) Excessive buzzing in oil pump
Fluid noise may occur in the valve or oil pump. This is common
when the vehicle is stationary or while turning the steering wheel
slowly. This does not affect the performance or durability of the
system.

SST090B
Checking Steering Wheel Turning ForceNLST00151. Park vehicle on a level, dry surface and set parking brake.
2. Start engine.
3. Bring power steering fluid up to adequate operating tempera-
ture. [Make sure temperature of fluid is approximately 60 to
80°C (140 to 176°F).]
Tires need to be inflated to normal pressure.
4. Check steering wheel turning force when steering wheel has
been turned 360°from the neutral position.
Steering wheel turning force:
26 - 32 N (2.7 - 3.3 kg, 5.8 - 7.2 lb)
5. If steering wheel turning force is out of specification, check
rack sliding force.
a. Disconnect steering column lower joint and knuckle arms from
the gear.
b. Start and run engine at idle to make sure steering fluid has
reached normal operating temperature.
c. Pull tie-rod slowly to move it from neutral position to±11.5 mm
(±0.453 in) at speed of 3.5 mm (0.138 in)/s. Check that rack
sliding force is within specification.
Average rack sliding force:
197 - 255 N (20.1 - 26.0 kg, 44.3 - 57.3 lb)
6. If rack sliding force is not within specification, replace steering
gear assembly.
7. If rack sliding force is OK, inspect steering column. Refer to
ST-13.
