STANDARD TIGHTENING TORQUE
Each fastener should be tightened to the torque specified in each section of this manual. If no description or specifi-
cation is provided, refer to the following tightening torque chart for the applicable torque for each fastener. When
a fastener of greater strength than the original one is used, however, use the torque specified for the original fasten-
er.
NOTE:

For the flanged bolt, flanged nut and self-lock nut of 4T and 7T strength, add 10% to the tightening torque
given in the chart below.

The chart below is applicable only where the fastened parts are made of steel or light alloy.

8) After the system has been charged with specified amount of re-
frigerant or when low pressure gauge (1) and high pressure
gauge (2) have indicated about 2 and 15 kg / cm
2 respectively,
close low pressure side vale (3) of manifold gauge set (4). If
equipped with sight glass in this time, look into the sight glass (6)
of condenser outlet pipe (5) and check that there are no bubbles
(7) in it, which means that the system is fully charged.
Low pressure gauge when charged with specified amount:
About 200 ± 300 kPa (2 ± 3 kg / cm

3F-2 WHEELS AND TIRES
The metric term for tire inflation pressure is the kilopascal (kPa).
Tire pressures will usually be printed in both kPa and psi on the Tire
Placard. Metric tire gauges are available from tool suppliers. The
chart, left table, converts commonly used inflation pressures from
kPa to psi.kPakgf / cm2psi

WHEELS REPLACEMENT
Wheels must be replaced if they are bent, dented, have excessive
lateral or radial runout, leak air through welds, have elongated bolt
holes, if lug nuts won't stay tight, or if they are heavily rusted.
Wheels with greater runout than shown in left figure may cause ob-
jectional vibrations.
Wheels for replacement must be equivalent to the originally
equipped wheels in load capacity, diameter, rim width, off-set and
mounting configuration. A wheel of improper size or type may affect
wheel and bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer / odometer cal-
ibration, ground clearance to the body and chassis.
To measure the wheel runout, it is necessary to use accurate dial
indicator. The tire may be on or off the wheel. The wheel should be
installed to the wheel balancer of the like for proper measurement.
Take measurements of both lateral runout and radial runout at both
inside and outside of the rim flange. With dial indicator set in place
securely, turn the wheel one full revolution slowly and record every
reading of the indicator.
When the measured runout exceeds the specification and correc-
tion by the balancer adjustment is impossible, replace the wheel.
If the reading is affected by welding, paint or scratch, it should be
ignored.
Lateral runout limit ªaº: 1.20 mm (0.047 in.)
Radial runout limit ªbº: 1.20 mm (0.047 in.)
METRIC LUG NUTS AND WHEEL STUDS
All models use metric lug nuts and wheel studs (size M12 x 1.25).

4) If rear brake pressure is not within specification, adjust it by
changing stay ªAº position as follows.

If rear brake pressure is higher than specification, move stay
ªAº to direction ªaº and if it is lower, to direction ªbº.

Repeat steps 3) and 4) until rear brake pressure is within spec-
ification.

After adjustment, be sure to torque bolt to specification.
5) Disconnect brake pipe (connecting between master cylinder
secondary side and 4-way joint) from master cylinder.
Tighten plug (special tool) to master cylinder.
Depress brake pedal. If rear brake pressure is 95 ± 100 kg / cm

when front brake pressure is 100 kg / cm2, it means that front fail-
safe system functions properly.

ROAD TEST
This test is to check if upshift and downshift take place at specified
speed while actually driving vehicle on a level road.
WARNING:

Carry out test in very little traffic area to prevent an acci-
dent.

Test requires 2 persons, a driver and a tester.
1) Warm up engine.
2) With engine running at idle, shift select lever ªDº.
3) Accelerate vehicle speed by depressing accelerator pedal grad-
ually.
4) While driving in ªDº range, check if gear shift occurs properly as
shown in Gear Shift Diagram in this section.
