PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Battery ServiceNCS0000N
Before disconnecting the battery, lower both the driver and passenger windows. This will prevent any interfer-
ence between the window edge and the vehicle when the door is opened/closed. During normal operation, the
window slightly raises and lowers automatically to prevent any window to vehicle interference. The automatic
window function will not work with the battery disconnected.
Service Notice or PrecautionsNCS0000O
If transmission assembly is removed from the vehicle, always replace CSC (Concentric Slave Cylinder)
body and CSC tube . Return CSC body insert to original position to remove transmission assembly. Dust
on clutch disc sliding parts may damage seal of CSC body and may cause clutch fluid leakage.
Do not reuse transmission oil, once it has been drained.
Check oil level or replace oil with vehicle on level ground.
During removal or installation, keep inside of transmission clear of dust or dirt.
Check for the correct installation status prior to removal or disassembly. If matching marks are required,
be certain they do not interfere with the function of the parts they are applied to.
In principle, tighten bolts or nuts gradually in several steps working diagonally from inside to outside. If
tightening sequence is specified, observe it.
Be careful not to damage sliding surfaces and mating surfaces.
Do not hold control lever housing to prevent bushing of control lever housing from deformation when mov-
ing transmission assembly.
