Te r m sINFOID:0000000003771174
• The captions WARNING and CAUTION warn you of steps that must be followed to prevent personal injury
and/or damage to some part of the vehicle.
WARNING indicates the possibility of personal injury if instructions are not followed.
CAUTION indicates the possibility of component damage if instructions are not followed.
BOLD TYPED STATEMENTS except WARNING and CAUTION give you helpful information.
Standard value: Tolerance at inspection and adjustment.
Limit value: The maximum or minimum limit val ue that should not be exceeded at inspection and adjust-
ment.
UnitsINFOID:0000000003771175
• The UNITS given in this manual are primarily expressed as the SI UNIT (International System of Unit), and
alternatively expressed in the metric system and in the yard/pound system.
Also with regard to tightening torque of bolts and nuts, there are descriptions both about range and about the
standard tightening torque.

• A QUICK REFERENCE INDEX , a black tab (e.g. ) is provided on the first page. You can quickly find the
first page of each section by matching it to the section's black tab.
• THE CONTENTS are listed on the first page of each section.
• THE TITLE is indicated on the upper portion of each page and shows the part or system.
• THE PAGE NUMBER of each section consists of two or three letters which designate the particular section
and a number (e.g. “BR-5”).
• THE SMALL ILLUSTRATIONS show the important steps such as ins pection, use of special tools, knacks of
work and hidden or tricky steps which are not shown in the previous large illustrations.
Assembly, inspection and adjustment procedures for the complicated units such as the automatic transaxle

SWITCH POSITIONS
Switches are shown in wiring diagrams as if the vehicle is in the “normal” condition.
A vehicle is in the “normal” condition when:
Number Item Description
1 Power supply • This means the power supply of fusible link or fuse.
2 Fusible link • “X” means the fusible link.
3 Number of fusible link/
fuse • This means the number of fusible link or fuse location.
4 Fuse • “/” means the fuse.
5 Current rating of fus-
ible link/fuse • This means the current rating of the fusible link or fuse.
6 Optional splice • The open circle shows that the splice is optional depending on vehicle application.
7 Connector number • The letter shows which harness the connector is located in.
• Example “M”: main harness. For detail and to locate the connector, refer to
PG-64, "
Elec-
trical Units Location", PG-41, "Harness Layout".
8Splice • The shaded circle “ ” means the splice.
9 Page crossing • This circuit continues to an adjacent page.
10 Option abbreviation • This means the vehicle specifications which layouts the circuit between “ ”.
11 Relay • This shows an internal representation of the relay.
12 Option description • This shows a description of the option abbreviation used on the page.
13 Switch • This shows that continuity exists between terminals 1 and 2 when the switch is in the A
position. Continuity exists between terminals 1 and 3 when the switch is in the B position.
14 Circuit (Wiring) • This means the wiring.
15 System branch • This shows that the circuit is branched to other systems.
16 Shielded line • The line enclosed by broken line circle shows shield wire.
17 Component name • This shows the name of a component.
18 Ground (GND) • This shows the ground connection.
19 Connector • This means the connector information.
• This unit-side is described by the connector symbols.
20 Connectors • This means that a transmission line bypasses two connectors or more.
21 Wire color • This shows a code for the color of the wire.
B = Black
W = White
R = Red
G = Green
L = Blue
Y = Yellow
LG = Light Green BR = Brown
OR or O = Orange
P = Pink
PU or V (Violet) = Purple
GY or GR = Gray
SB = Sky Blue
CH = Dark Brown
