Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 00-5 Precautions:
• When performing service to electrical parts that does not require use of battery power, disconnect the
negative cable of the battery.
• When disconnecting the negative cable from the battery, be careful to the following.
– Check and record DTCs in ECM and HVAC control module if necessary before disconnecting.
– Record displayed contents of the clock and/or audio system, etc. before disconnecting and reset it
as before after connecting.
– For vehicle equipped with electric throttle body system, perform electric throttle body system
calibration referring to “Electric Throttle Body
System Calibration in Section 1C” after
reconnecting the negative cable to the battery.
– For vehicle equipped with ESP ®, calibrate steering
angle sensor referring to “Sensor Calibration in
Section 4F” after reconnecting the negative cable
to the battery.
• When removing the battery, be sure to disconnect the negative cable first and then the positive cable. When
reconnecting the battery, connect the positive cable
first and then the negative cable, and replace the
terminal cover. • When removing parts that are to be reused, be sure to
keep them arranged in an orderly manner so that they
may be reinstalled in the proper order and position.
• Whenever you use oil seals, gaskets, packing, O- rings, locking washers, split pins, self-locking nuts,
and certain other parts as specified, be sure to use
new ones. Also, before installing new gaskets,
packing, etc., be sure to remove any residual material
from the mating surfaces.
• Make sure that all parts used in reassembly are perfectly clean.
When use of a certain type of lubricant, bond or
sealant is specified, be sure to use the specified type.

There are two kinds of colored wire used in this vehicle. One is single-colored wire and the other is dual-colored
(striped) wire.
The single-colored wire uses only one color symbol (i.e. “GRN”).
The dual-colored wire uses two color sy mbols (i.e. “GRN/YEL”). The first symbo l represents the base color of the wire
(“GRN” in the figure) and the second symbol represents the color of the stripe (“YEL” in the figure).
Fasteners InformationS7RS0B0101004
Metric Fasteners
Most of the fasteners used for this vehicle are JIS-
defined and ISO-defined metric fasteners. When
replacing any fasteners, it is most important that
replacement fasteners be the correct diameter, thread
pitch and strength.
CAUTION!
Even when the nominal diameter (1) of thread
is the same, the thread pitch (2) or the width
across flats (3) may vary between ISO and
JIS. Refer to JIS-TO-ISO Main Fasteners
Comparison Table below for the difference.
Installing a mismatched bolt or nut will cause
damage to the thread.
Before installing, check the thread pitch for
correct matching and then tighten it by hand
temporarily. If it is tight, recheck the thread
pitch.
JIS-TO-ISO Main Fasteners Comparison Table Fastener Strength Identification
Most commonly used metric fastener strength property
classes are 4T, 6.8, 7T, 8.8 and radial line with the class
identification embossed on the head of each bolt. Some
metric nuts will be marked with punch, 6 or 8 mark
strength identification on the nut face. Figure shows the
different strength markings.
When replacing metric fasteners, be careful to use bolts
and nuts of the same strength or greater than the original
fasteners (the same number marking or higher). It is
likewise important to select replacement fasteners of the
correct diameter and thread
pitch. Correct replacement
bolts and nuts are available through the parts division.
Metric bolts: Identification class numbers or marks
correspond to bolt strength (increasing numbers
represent increasing strength).

Standard Tightening Torque
Each fastener should be tightened to the torque specified in each section. If no description or specification 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 fastener.
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 following chart.
• The following chart is applicable only where the fastened parts are made of steel light alloy.

4) Screw new filter on oil filter stand by hand until the filter O-ring contacts mounting surface.
CAUTION!
To tighten oil filter prop erly, it is important to
accurately identify the position at which filter
O-ring first contacts mounting surface.
5) Tighten the filter (1) 3/4 tu rn from the point of contact
with the mounting surface using an oil filter wrench
(2).

6) Replenish oil until oil leve l is brought to FULL level
mark on dipstick (oil pan and oil filter capacity). The
filler inlet is at the top of the cylinder head cover. It is
recommended to use engine oil of SG, SH, SJ, SL or
SM grade. Select the appropriate oil viscosity
according to the proper engine oil viscosity chart [A].
NOTE
Engine oil capacity is specified as the
following.
However, note that the amount of oil required
when actually changing oil may somewhat
differ from the data depending on various
conditions (temperature, viscosity, etc.).
Engine oil specification
Oil pan capacity: About 3.7 liters (7.8 / 6.5 US /
lmp pt.)
Oil filter capacity: About 0.2 liter (0.4 / 0.3 US /
lmp pt.)
Others: About 0.3 liter (0 .6 / 0.5 US / lmp pt.)
Total: About 4.2 liters (8.9 / 7.4 US / lmp pt.) 7) Check oil filter and drain plug for oil leakage.
8) Start engine and run it for 3 minutes. Stop it and wait
another 5 minutes before checking oil level. Add oil,
as necessary, to bring oil le vel to FULL level mark (1)
on dipstick.
Engine Coolant ChangeS7RS0B0206005
WARNING!
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not
remove radiator cap while engine and
radiator are still hot. Scalding fluid and steam
can be blown out under pressure if cap is
taken off too soon.
CAUTION!
When changing engine coolant, use mixture
of 50% specified water and 50% ANTIFREEZE
/ ANTICORROSION COOLANT for the
purpose of corrosion protection and
lubrication.
Change engine coolant with new one referring to
“Cooling System Flush and Refill in Section 1F”.

2) Check bolts and nuts for tightness and retighten them as necessary. Repair or replace defective
parts, if any.
3) Check steering linkage for looseness and damage. Repair or replace defective parts, if any.
4) Check boots (1) and (2) of steering linkage and steering gear case for damage (leak, detachment,
tear, etc.). If damage is fo und, replace defective boot
with new one.
If any dent is found on steering gear case boots,
correct it to original shape by turning steering wheel
to the right or left as far as it stops and holding it for a
few seconds.
5) Check universal joints (3) of steering shaft for rattle and damage. If rattle or damage is found, replace
defective part with a new one.
6) Check that steering wheel can be turned fully to the
right and left. Repair or replace defective parts, if
any.
7) If equipped with power steering system, check also, in addition to check items, that steering wheel can be
turned fully to the right and left more lightly when
engine is running at idle speed than when it is
stopped. Repair, if found faulty.
8) Check wheel alignment referring to “Front Wheel Alignment Inspection and Adjustment in Section 2B”.

1) Inspect transaxle case for evidence of oil leakage. Repair leaky point if any.
2) Make sure that vehicle is placed level for oil level
check.
3) Remove oil filler/leve l plug (1) of transaxle.
4) Check oil level. Oil level can be checked roughly by means of filler/
level plug hole. That is, if oil flows out of level plug
hole or if oil level is found up to hole when level plug
is removed, oil is properly filled.
If oil is found insufficient, po ur specified oil up to level
hole. For specified oil, refe r to “Manual Transaxle Oil
Change in Section 5B”.
5) Apply sealant to filler/leve l plug and tighten it to
specified torque.
