NOTE: Take care not to scratch or damage the column covers.
 Do not pry the cover surface with any tools.
1. Release the lock lever (A), and adjust the steering column to full tilt down position and to the full
telescopic out position.
2. Insert a suitable sized screwdriver or equivalent tool (B) along the guide rib (C) into the lever hole
(D) in the lower column cover (E).
3. Release the hook (F) located on the left side of the upper column cover (G). A right side hook (H) of the
upper column cover can’t be released from the
inside. 4. Turn the steering wheel to the left, and release the
left pawl (I) of the upper column cover while
pushing the lower column cover from the front side.
5. Turn the steering wheel to the right, and release the right pawl (J) of the upper column cover in the
same way as in step 4.
6. Remove the cover by lightly pulling it up by releasing the right side hook of the upper column
cover.
Carefully release the pawls, note the hooks (K)
may break when the upper column cover is
pulled up too hard.
7. Remove the three screws, then remove the lower column cover (A).
8. Install the upper and lower column cover in the reverse order of removal, and push the hooks into
place securely.

Wheel Alignment
The suspension can be adjusted for front camber, front
toe, and rear toe. However, each of these adjustments
are related to each other. For example, when you adjust
camber, the toe will change. Therefore, you must adjust
the front wheel alignment whenever you adjust camber
or toe.
For proper inspection and adjustment of the wheel
alignment, do these checks: 1. Release the parking brake to avoid an incorrect measurement.
2. Make sure the suspension is not modified.
3. Make sure the fuel tank is full, and that the spare tire, the jack, and the tools are in place on the
vehicle.
4. Check the tire size and tire pressure.
5. Check the runout of the wheels and tires (see page 18-9). 6. Check the suspension ball joints (Hold a tire with
your hands, and move it up and down and right and
left to check for movement).
7. Before doing alignment inspections, be sure to remove all extra weight from the vehicle, and no
one should be inside the vehicle (driver or
passengers).
8. Bounce the vehicle up and down several times to stabilize the suspension.
9. Check that the steering column is set at the center tilt and telescopic position.
Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions. 1. Check the caster angle.
 If the measurement is within specifications,measure the camber angle.
 If the measurement is not within specifications, check for bent or damaged suspension
components.

Item Definition
23-8Audio System
System Description (cont’d)
NOTE: All items may not apply to this vehicle. See the owner’s manual for more information.
Active noise cancellation The active noise cancellation system cancels some of the vehicle noise. This occurs in the 1,500 2,400 rpm range. Microphones detect the low frequency
sound, and the system outputs a canceling sound from the audio speaker.
AM (Amplitude Modulation)
Amplifier A device that increases the level of a signal by increasing the current or voltage.
Antenna A device used to send or receive electromagnetic waves thr ough the air.
ATA (PC Card) A type of card that has been tested for use in playing WMA, and MP3 music files in the PC Card slot. Sizes of up to 1 GB have been tested.
Audio remote switch The switches on the steering wheel that control the audio system.
Auxiliary jack Allows the customer to use a portable audio device to i nput audio recordings.
Balance A control that changes the relative volume of the left and right channels.
Band A range of frequencies between two definite limits. Bands are assigned by the Federal Communications Commission for specific uses.
Bass An adjustment for the low frequency sounds of around 160 Hz and below.
Byte A unit of storage for computer files and memory. A CD holds approximately 700 million bytes.
Cassette Audio or video magnetic tape container having two reels. Customers can insert it for play back
Compactflash Astandardforsmall-size(3x4cm),memorycardsusedinmobilecomputers, PDAs, digital cameras. Compact flash memory cards are available in size of
32 MB up to 4 GB or more and can be played in the audio PC slot. Sizes above
1 GB have not been tested.
CD (Compact Disc) A 4.5-inch plastic disc containing digital audio recording that is played optically on a laser equipped player. Never use discs with a paper label. In a hot vehicle,
labels can curl up and jam the unit.
CD (audio disc) changer CD player that can store and play more than one CD. Two types are available. Some units accept CDs fed into the changer one at a time, and others accept a
magazine (with CDs stacked in a container).
CD player A com ponent designed to play compact disc recordings using a laser optical
pickup. The signal from a CD player usually requires amplification.
Decibels (db)
Distortion Inexact repr oduction of an audio signal caused by playing music at levels the
audio system cannot handle.
Dolby (noise reduction) A processing system developed by Dolby Laboratories that reduces the background noise on recording media. The result is a cleaner playback from the
audio system.
DUET A serial data communication line used for sub display.
DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) A 4.5-inch CD-like format used for storing movies with digital audio and video features. The DVD-A format is a DVD format designed for DVD audio systems.
Some vehicles can play DVD and DVD-A formats.
Equalizer A device that changes the relative volume of individual frequency bands to suit personal tastes of the listener.
Fader The control that adjusts the relative volume levels of front and rear speakers in a four-speaker system.
Format To prepare a PC Card to receive files this function is done on a PC. Always choose either FAT or FAT32, as the NTFS format is not accepted by the system.
Pick the default sectors for the format method selected.
FM (Frequency Modulation) The form of modulation used for radio and television sound transmission in most of the world. Less prone to interference than AM. The FM broadcast band
in North America covers roughly 87.7 to 107.9 MHz.
The type of transmission used in the standard radio broadcast band from 530 to 1710 kHz.
A method of measuring sound or radio signal strength received by the audio unit antenna.
