Checking Drive BeltsINFOID:0000000003533866
WARNING:
Be sure to perform when the engine is stopped.
1. Remove air duct and resonator assembly (inlet) when inspecting drive belt.
2. Make sure that indicator (single line notch) of each auto tensioner is within the allowable working range
“A” (between three line notches) as shown.
NOTE:
• Check the auto tensioner indication when the engine is cold.
• When the new drive belt is installed, the range should be “A” as shown.
• The indicator notch is located on the moving side of the auto tensioner.
3. Visually check entire belt for wear, damage or cracks.
4. If the indicator is out of allowable working range or belt is damaged, replace the belt. Refer to EM-13,
"Removal and Installation".
DRIVE BELT TENSION
There is no manual drive belt tension adjustment. The drive belt tension is automatically adjusted by the auto
tensioner.
Changing Engine CoolantINFOID:0000000003533867
WARNING:
• To avoid being scalded, never change the coolant when the engine is hot.
• Wrap a thick cloth around the cap to carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter of a turn
to release any built-up pressure, then push down and turn the cap all the way to remove it.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Turn ignition switch ON and set temperature control lever all the way to HOT position or the highest tem-
perature position. Wait 10 seconds and turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Remove the engine front undercover using power tool.

face, then tighten it by 2/3 turn. Or tighten to specification.
4. Inspect the engine for oil leaks. Refer to LU-11, "
Removal and
Installation" .
5. Install the engine front undercover using power tool.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
1. Check the oil level using the dipstick as shown. Add oil as nec-
essary.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill the engine with oil.
2. Start the engine and check for engine oil leaks.
3. Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.
4. Check the engine oil level and add engine oil as required.Tool number : KV10115801 (J-38956)

On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceINFOID:0000000003532831
CHECKING RELIEF OIL PRESSURE
CAUTION:
Before starting work, confirm belt tension is proper.
1. Connect Tool between oil pump discharge connector and high
pressure hose and then bleed air from the hydraulic circuit.
2. Start engine. Allow engine to run until tank temperature reaches 50 – 80°C (122 – 176°F).
CAUTION:
• Warm up engine with shut-off valve fully opened. If engine is started with shut-off valve closed,
fluid pressure in power steering pump increases to maximum. This will raise fluid temperature
excessively.
• Be careful not to contact hose with belt when engine is started.
3. With engine at idle, close shut-off valve and read the relief oil pressure.
CAUTION:
Do not close shut-off valve of pressure gauge for more than 10 seconds.
4. After measurement, open shut-off valve slowly.
• If relief oil pressure is outside the specification, repair or replace oil pump. Refer to PS-22, "
Disassembly
and Assembly" .
5. After inspection, disconnect oil pressure gauge and oil pressure gauge adapter from hydraulic circuit, con-
nect oil pump discharge connector and high pressure hose. Add fluid and bleed air from hydraulic circuit
thoroughly. Refer to PS-6, "
Air Bleeding Hydraulic System" .
Removal and InstallationINFOID:0000000003532832
REMOVAL
