Turn the knob clockwise to step up the frequency. Turn the
knob counterclockwise to step down the frequency.
Your radio automatically changes to stereo reception when a
stereo broadcast is received. ªSTº appears on the display. If
the signal becomes weak, the radio reduces the amount of
channel separation to prevent the weak signal from creating
noise. If the signal becomes extremely weak, the radio
switches from stereo to mono reception. In this case, ªSTº
disappears from the display.

3. Loosen all the wheel nuts.
Always loosen the wheel nuts before raising the vehicle.
Turn the wheel nuts counterclockwise to loosen them. To
get maximum leverage, fit the wrench to the nut so that
the handle is on the right side, as shown above. Grab the
wrench near the end of the handle and pull up on the
handle. Be careful that the wrench does not slip off the
nut.
Do not remove the nuts yet ± just unscrew them about
one±half turn.
CAUTION
Never use oil or grease on the bolts or nuts. The
nuts may loosen and the wheels may fall off, which
could cause a serious accident.

4. Position the jack at the jack points as shown.
Make sure the jack is positioned on a level and solid
surface.

5. After making sure no one is in the vehicle, raise it
high enough so that the spare tire can be installed.
Allow for the fact that you need more ground clearance
when putting on the spare tire than when removing the
flat tire.
To raise the vehicle, insert the jack handle into the jack
(it is a loose fit) and turn it clockwise. As the jack touches
the vehicle and begins to lift, double±check that it is
properly positioned.
CAUTION
Never get under the vehicle when the vehicle is
supported by the jack alone.

6. Remove the wheel nuts and remove the flat tire.
Lift the flat tire straight off and put it aside.

7. Remove the wheel ornament.
When installing the alloy wheels, at this point, remove
the wheel ornament from the flat tire and replace it on the
newly installed tire.

9. Lower the vehicle completely and tighten the
wheel nuts.
Turn the jack handle counterclockwise to lower the
vehicle.
Use only the wheel nut wrench to tighten the nuts. Do not
use other tools or any additional leverage other than
your hands, such as a hammer, pipe or your foot. Make
sure the wrench is securely engaged over the nut.
Tighten each nut a little at a time in the order shown.
Repeat the process until all the nuts are tight.
CAUTION
When lowering the vehicle, make sure all
portions of your body and all other persons
around will not be injured as the vehicle is
lowered to the ground.
 As soon as possible after changing wheels,
have the wheel nuts tightened with torque
wrench to 103 N´m (10.5 kgf´m, 76 ft´lbf.).

4. Pull the dipstick out and look at the oil level while holding a
rag under the end. If it is between the low level mark ( 4 ) and
the full level mark ( 5 ), it is O.K.
NOTICE
Be careful not to drop engine oil on the vehicle
components.
SV62008
If the oil level is below or only slightly above the low level
mark, add engine oil of the same type as already in the
engine.
Remove the oil filler cap and add engine oil a little at a time,
checking the dipstick. We recommend that you use a funnel
when adding oil.
The approximate quantity of oil needed to raise the level
between low and full on the dipstick is indicated below for
reference.
When the level reaches within the correct range, return the
filler cap and turn the cap clockwise until you hear a click.

CHECKING POWER STEERINGFLUID
SV63002
Check the fluid level on the dipstick. If necessary, add
automatic transmission fluid DEXRONII or III.
If the vehicle has been driven around 80 km/h (50 mph) for 20
minutes (a little more in frigid temperatures), the fluid is hot
(60 C ± 80C or 140F ± 175F). You may also check the level
when the fluid is cold (about room temperature, 10 C ± 30C
or 50F ± 85F) if the engine has not been run for about five
hours.

1. Clean all dirt off the reservoir.
2. Remove the reservoir cap by turning it counterclockwise
and wipe the dipstick clean.
3. Reinstall the reservoir cap.
4. Remove the reservoir cap again and look at the fluid level.
If the fluid is cold, the level should be in the ªCOLDº range on
the dipstick. Similarly, if it is hot, the fluid level should be in the
ªHOTº range. If the level is at the low side of either range, add
automatic transmission fluid DEXRON
II or III to bring the
level within the range.
5. After replacing the reservoir cap, visually check the
steering box case, vane pump and hose connections for leaks
or damage.
