106Section 3 Front Wheel AlignmentAdjustment1. Inspect tire
2. Inspect toe-in
Toe-in
If the toe-in is not as specified, adjust the tie rod (but the left and
right tie rods must be adjusted symmetrically).
3. Adjust toe-in
(1) Loose the tie rod end lock nut.
(2) Turn the left and right tie rod in the same direction for same
revolutions.
Hint: Adjust the toe-in to the specified value.
Only adjust the one-side tie rod is not allowed.
(3) Make sure the left and right tie rods are of the same length.
(The difference should be less than 0.5mm).
(4) Tighten the lock nut of tie rod.
Torque: 45~50N.m
4. Inspect wheel limited turn angle
Turn the steering wheel fully and measure the turning angle.
Wheel angle:
If the wheel angle is less than the specified value, check whether the length of the right and left tie rod
ends.Tire Pressure 220KP a

128Chapter 8 Power Steering SystemSection 1 Power Steering SystemPower Steering System DescriptionPower Steering System consists of the steering wheel, steering transmit device, power steering fixed device
and steering pipelines. The steering gear is rack and pinion type.
Major parameters for steering system:
Cautions:
1. Cautions for steering system
Make sure of the correct replacement of parts, incorrect replacement might affect the performance of
the steering system and lead to driving accidents.
2. Cautions for SRS System
This vehicle is equipped with SRS (Supplemental Restraint System), driver side air bag and front passenger
side air bag.
Failure to carry out service operations in the correct sequence could cause the unexpected deployment of
the air bag during servicing, possibly leading to a serious accident.Parameter

129Symptom TableThe table below is helpful to find the cause of the problem. The numbers indicate the priority of the likely
cause of the problem. Check each part in order. Repair or replace these parts or assemblies if necessary.On-vehicle inspection1. Check steering wheel free stroke
(1) Stop vehicle and keep the tires straight ahead.
(2) Rotate the steering wheel lightly, check the steering wheel free stroke.
