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.
2. LIGHTS
(a) Check that the headlights, stop lights, taillights, turn signal lights, and other lights are all working.
(b) Check the headlight aim.
3. WARNING LIGHTS AND BUZZERS
Check that all warning lights and buzzers function properly.
4. HORN
Check that it is working.
5. WINDSHIELD GLASS
Check for scratches, pits or abrasions.
6. WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER
(a) Check operation of the wipers and washer.
(b) Check that the wipers do not streak.
7. WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER
Check that air comes out from the defroster outlet when operating the heater or air conditioner.
8. REAR VIEW MIRROR
Check that it is mounted securely.
9. SUN VISORS
Check that they move freely and are mounted securely.
10. STEERING WHEEL
Check that it has the specified freeplay. Be alert for changes in steering condition, such as hard steering,
excessive freeplay or strange noises.
11. SEATS
(a) Check that the seat adjusters operate smoothly.
(b) Check that all latches lock securely in any position.
(c) Check that the head restraints move up and down smoothly and that the locks hold securely in any
latch position.
(d) For fold±down seat backs, check that the latches lock securely.

Headlight Relay Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Head light relay will be ºONº by operating the headlight switch. The transistor which activates the headlight
relay has two sorts: one activates directly by the headlight switch for fail safe and the other activates by CPU.
the one that activates by CPU has two systems and prevents the headlight from turning off at the time of
one system trouble in the automatic operation circuit.
When the theft deterrent system is activated, it causes the transistor in the ECU to switch ON and OFF at
approximately 0.25 sec. intervals. This switches the headlight control relay ON and OFF, thus flashing the
headlights (See the wiring diagram below).
In this condition, if any of the following operations is done, the transistor in the ECU goes OFF and the head-
light control relay switches OFF, thus stopping the headlights flashing:
(1) Unlock the front LH or RH door with a key.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to ACC or ON position.
(3) Unlock the doors with the wireless door lock control system.
(4) Wait for approximately 60 seconds.

HINT:
Troubleshooting of the theft deterrent system is based on the premise that the door lock control system is
operating normally. Accordingly, before troubleshooting the theft deterrent system, first make certain that
the door lock control system is operating normally.

HINT:
Troubleshooting of the wireless door lock control system is based on the premise that the door lock
control system is operating normally. Accordingly, before troubleshooting the wireless door lock control
system, first make certain that the door lock control system is operating normally.
If the trouble still reappears even though there are no abnormalities in any of the other circuits, then
check and replace the Wireless Door Lock Control Receiver as the last step.

ADJUST HEADLIGHT AIM ONLY
(a) Place the vehicle in the following conditions.

The area around the headlight is not deformed.

The vehicle is parked on a level surface.

Tire inflation pressure is the specified value.

A driver is in the driver's seat and the vehicle is in
a state ready for driving (with a tank full).

The vehicle has been bounced several times.
(b) Check the headlight aiming.
(1) Prepare a thick white paper.
(2) Stand the paper perpendicular to the ground at the
position 9.84 ft away from the headlights.
(3) Ensure that the center line of the vehicle and the pa-
per face forms a 90±degree angle as shown in the
illustration.
(4) Draw a horizontal line (H line) on the paper, showing
where the headlights should strike.
(5) Draw a vertical line (V line) to where the center line
of the vehicle is to be.
(6) Draw 2 vertical lines (by connecting the low and
high beam center marks) to where the both head-
lights should strike (V RH and V LH lines).
(7) Draw a horizontal line (by connecting the both low
beam center marks) to where the headlights should
strike (H RH and H LH lines).
(8) Start the engine.
(9) Turn the headlights ON.
(10) Check that the headlights properly strike the posi-
tion shown in the illustration.
(11) If not, adjust the lights in the vertical direction.
HINT:
As shown in the illustration, adjust each aim of the RH and LH
lights.
(c) When adjusting it in the vertical direction:
Using adjusting bolt, adjust the headlight aim to within the
specified range.
