ENGINE COOLANT LEAK CHECKM1141001000300
WARNING
When pressure testing the cooling system,
slowly release cooling system pressure to
avoid getting burned by hot coolant.
CAUTION
•Be sure to completely clean away any
moisture from the places checked.
•When the tester is taken out, be careful not to
spill any coolant.
•Be careful when installing and removing the
tester and when testing not to deform the
filler neck of the radiator.
1. Check that the coolant level is up to the filler neck.
Install a radiator tester and apply 160 kPa
pressure, and then check for leakage from the
radiator hose or connections.
2. If there is leakage, repair or replace the
appropriate part.

PRESSURE CHECK
M1141001300389
NOTE: Be sure that the cap is clean before
testing. Rust or other foreign material on the cap
seal will cause an improper reading.
1. Use a cap adapter to attach the cap to the tester.2. Increase the pressure until the indicator of the
gauge stops moving.
Minimum limit: 83 kPa
Standard value: 93 − 123 kPa
3. Replace the radiator cap if the reading does not
remain at or above the limit.
ENGINE COOLANT REPLACEMENTM1141001200434
WARNING
When removing the radiator cap, use care to
avoid contact with hot coolant or steam.
Place a shop towel over the cap and turn the
cap counterclockwise a little to let the
pressure escape through the vinyl tube.
After relieving the steam pressure, remove
the cap by slowly turning it
counterclockwise.
1. Drain the water from the radiator, heater core and
engine after unplugging the radiator drain plug
and removing the radiator cap.
2. Drain the water in the water jacket by unplugging
the drain plug of the cylinder block.
3. Remove the radiator condenser tank and drain
the coolant.
4. Drain the coolant then clean the path of the
coolant by injecting water into the radiator from
the radiator cap area.

NOTE: For information on tyre inflation pressure,
refer to the label attached to the centre pillar on the
driver's side.
TYRE WEAR CHECKM1311001000334
Measure the tread depth of the tyres.
Minimum limit: 1.6 mm
If the remaining tread depth is less than the minimum
limit, replace the tyre.
NOTE: When the tread depth of the tyres is reduced
to 1.6 mm or less, wear indicators will appear.
WHEEL RUNOUT CHECKM1311001100353
Jack up the vehicle so that the wheels are clear of
the floor. While slowly turning the wheel, measure
wheel runout with a dial indicator.
Limit:
If wheel runout exceeds the limit, replace the wheel.
