GENERAL MAINTENANCE
(2006/01- )
1. GENERAL NOTES
• Maintenance requirements vary depending on the
country.
• Check the maintenance schedule in the owner's
manual supplement.
• Following the maintenance schedule is mandatory.
• Determine the appropriate time to service the vehicle
using either miles driven or time elapsed, whichever
reaches the specification first.
• Maintain similar intervals between periodic
maintenance, unless otherwise noted.
• Failing to check each vehicle part could lead to poor
engine performance and increase exhaust emissions.
2. WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID
(a) Check that there is sufficient fluid in the tank.
3. ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL
(a) Check that the coolant level is between the "FULL"
and "LOW" lines on the see-through reservoir.
4. RADIATOR AND HOSES
(a) Check that the front of the radiator is clean and not
blocked by leaves, dirt or bugs.
(b) Check the hoses for cracks, kinks, rot or loose
connections.
5. BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
(a) Check that the electrolyte level of all the battery
cells is between the upper and lower level lines on
the case.
HINT:
If the electrolyte level is difficult to see, lightly shake
the vehicle.
6. BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
(a) Check that the brake fluid levels are near the upper
level lines on the see-through reservoirs.
7. ENGINE DRIVE BELT
(a) Check the drive belt for fraying, cracks, wear or
oiliness.
8. ENGINE OIL LEVEL
(a) Check the level on the dipstick with the engine
stopped.
9. AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID LEVEL
10. EXHAUST SYSTEM
(a) Check for unusual exhaust sounds or abnormal
exhaust fumes. Inspect the cause and repair it.

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK FUEL CUT RPM
(a) Increase the engine speed to at least 3,500 rpm.
(b) Use a sound scope to check for injector operating
noise.
(c) Check that the operating sounds stop momentarily
and then resume when the throttle lever is released.
HINT:
Measure with the A/C OFF.
Fuel return rpm:
1,400 rpm
2. CHECK FOR LEAKS
(a) Visually check that the hoses, connections and
gaskets have no cracks, leaks or damage.
NOTICE:
• Detachment or other problems with the
engine oil dipstick, filler cap, PCV hose and
other components may cause the engine to
run improperly.
• Disconnection, looseness or cracks in the
parts of the air induction system between the
throttle body and cylinder head will allow air
suction and cause an engine failure or engine
malfunctions.
If the result is not as specified, replace parts as
necessary.
3. CHECK LINE AND CONNECTORS
(a) Visually check for loose connections, sharp bends
or damage.
4. CHECK FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY
(a) Visually check for deformation, cracks or fuel
leakage.
5. CHECK FUEL TANK AND VENT LINE
(a) Disconnect the vent line tube from the canister.
(b) Connect a pressure gauge to the vent line tube.
