Low Fuel Indicator Light Inspection
1. Disconnect the fuel tank unit wire connector.
2. Turn the key switch on. Check that the bulb lights.
If operation is not correct, remove and check the bulb or circuit.
or If check whether low fuel turns on fuel input (B-24) at the
time of open and key on.

Check level sensor operation
1. Remove the fuel tank unit.
2.
Apply battery voltage between terminal (B) and (C) through
a 1.12 watt bulb. Check that the bulb lights.
Note:
It will take a short time for the bulb light.
3. Submerge the sensor in fuel. Check that the bulb goes out.
If operation is not correct, replace the fuel tank unit.
BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
The brake system warning light comes on while the parking
brake is set and the engine run position.
Note:
The parking brake indicator light circuit is designed to
prevent driving of the vehicle with the parking brake on.
It does not indicate the condition of the parking brake
system.
The parking brake switch is in parallel with the brake fluid
switch.
The brake system warning light also comes on when reservoir
brake fluid level falls below the specified limit with the parking
brake released and the engine run position.

Jump Starting Procedure
1. Set the vehicle parking brake.
If the vehicle is equipped with an automatic
transmission, place the selector level in the “PARK"
position.
If the vehicle is equipped with a manual
transmission, place the shift lever in the
“ NEUTRAL" position.
Turn “OFF" the ignition.
Turn “OFF" all lights and any other accessory
requiring electrical power.
2. Look at the built –in hydrometer.
If the indication area of the built –in hydrometer is
completely clear, do not try to jump start.
3.
Attach the end of one jumper cable to the positive
terminal of the booster battery.
Attach the other end of the same cable to the
positive terminal of the discharged battery.
Do not allow the vehicles to touch each other. This
will cause a ground connection, effectively
neutralizing the charging procedure.
Be sure that the booster battery has a 12 volt rating.
4. Attach one end of the remaining cable to the
negative terminal of the booster battery.
Attach the other end of the same cable to a solid
engine ground (such as the air conditioning
compressor bracket or the generator mounting
bracket) of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
The ground connection must be at least 450 mm
(18 in.) from the battery of the vehicle whose battery
is being charged.
WARNING: NEVER ATTACH THE END OF THE
JUMPER CABLE DIRECTLY TO THE NEGATIVE
TERMINAL OF THE DEAD BATTERY.
5. Start the engine of the vehicle with the good battery.
Make sure that all unnecessary electrical
accessories have been turned “OFF".
6. Start the engine of the vehicle with the dead battery.
7. To remove the jumper cables, follow the above directions in reverse order.
Be sure to first disconnect the negative cable from
the vehicle with the discharged battery.
Battery Removal
P1010001
1. Remove negative cable.
2. Remove positive cable (2).
3. Remove retainer screw and rods.
4. Remove retainer.
5. Remove battery.
Battery Installation
1. Install battery.
2. Install retainer.
3. Install retainer screw and rods.
NOTE: Make sure that the rod is hooked on the body
side.
4. Install positive cable.
5. Install negative cable.

Battery fluid is a highly corrosive acid.
Should battery fluid come in contact with your eyes, skin,
fabric, or a painted surface, immediately and thoroughly rinse
the affected area with clean tap water.
Never allow metal tools or jumper cables to come in contact
with the positive battery terminal, or any other metal surface of
the vahicle. This will protect against a short circuit.
Always keep batteries out of reach of young children.
Jump Starting Procedure
1. Set the vehicle parking brake.
If the vahicle is equipped with an automatic transmission,
place the selector level in the "PARK" position.
If the vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission, place
the shift lever in the "NEUTRAL" position.
Turn "OFF" the ignition.
Turn "OFF" all lights and any other accessory requiring
electrical power.
