CAUTION:
• The laser beam aiming adjustment can not be performed without CONSULT-III.
• The laser beam aiming adjustment must be performed every time the ICC sensor is removed,
installed or has been moved as a result of a collision.
1. Prepare the vehicle and the work area.
2. Set up the ICC target board. For details, refer to Technical Service Bulletin.
3. Adjust the sensor following the procedure on CONSULT-III.
4. Check system operation after the adjustment.

• Place the vehicle on level ground. Shift the transmi ssion into "P" position and release the parking brake.
• Adjust the tire pressure to the specified value.
• See that there is no load in the vehicle. Coolant , engine oil and fuel should be filled to correct level.
• Check that the vehicle suspension has been adjusted to the standard height by the load leveling rear air sus-
pension system. Refer to SCS-7, "
CONSULT-III Function" .
• Clean the sensor with a soft cloth. Tool number : KV99110100 (J-45718)

5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the
″LOCK ″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)

Precaution for Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000005149035
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
• After removing the bolts and nuts, separate the mating surface and
remove the old liquid gasket sealing using Tool.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the mating surfaces.
• Tap the seal cutter to insert it (1).
• In areas where the Tool is difficult to use, lightly tap to slide it (2).
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove the old liquid gasket adhering to the gasket application surface and the mating surface using suitable tool.
• Remove the liquid gasket completely from the groove of the
liquid gasket application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces and remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign material.
3. Attach the liquid gasket tube to the Tool. Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-15, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
4. Apply the liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location.
• If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply theliquid gasket to the groove.
• As for the bolt holes, normally apply the liquid gasket inside
the holes. If specified in the procedure, it should also be
applied outside the holes.
• Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.
• If the liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten after the installation.
• Wait 30 minutes or more after installation before refilling the engine with engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in this manual, observe them.

LEVEL CHECK
• Check if the engine coolant reservoir tank level is within MIN toMAX level when engine is cool.
• Adjust engine coolant level as necessary.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator or reservoir cap when th e engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from
high-pressure engine coolant escaping from the radiator or reservoir.
• To check for leakage, apply pressure to the cooling system at the
reservoir filler neck using suitable tool and Tool.
CAUTION:
Higher pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.
NOTE:
In case that engine coolant decreases, replenish cooling system
with engine coolant.
• If any concerns are found, repair or replace damaged parts.
CHECKING RESERVOIR CAP
• Check reservoir cap relief pressure using suitable tool and Tool.
NOTE:
Apply engine coolant to the cap seal.
• Replace the reservoir cap if there is any damage in the negative- pressure valve, or if the open-valve pressure is outside of the limit.
