Apply brakes firmly and make a very hard stop.
During stop, seat belts should lock and not be extended. If the seat belt retractor assembly does not lock, per-
form the retractor off-vehicle check.
SEAT BELT RETRACTOR OFF-VEHICLE CHECK
1. Remove the seat belt retractor assembly.
2. Slowly pull out belt while tilting the retractor asse mbly forward from the mounted position without twisting
the retractor assembly as shown in the illustration.
If retractor does not operate within specif ications, replace the retractor assembly.
15 degrees or less tilt : Belt can be pulled out.
35 degrees or more tilt : Belt locks and cannot be pulled out.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
• The engine start function of Intelligent Key system is a system that makes it possible to start and stop the
engine without using the key. It verifies the electroni c ID using two-way communications when pressing the
ignition knob switch while carrying the Intelligent Key, which operates based on the results of electronic ID
verification for Intelligent Key using two-way communications between the Intelligent Key and the vehicle.
NOTE:
The driver should carry the Intelligent Key at all times.

INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
Preliminary CheckINFOID:0000000005146183
DESCRIPTION
The purpose of the sonar sensor preliminary check is to confirm that there are no outside factors affecting the
sonar system.
CONDITIONS
• Ignition switch ON
• No obstructions within 3.0 m (10 ft.) of sonar sensors
SONAR SENSOR STATUS CHECK
• Check that the sonar sensors are properly aligned (no deformation in sensor mounting areas).
• Check that snow, mud or other foreign obj ects are not adhering to the sonar sensors.
• Check that there is no deformation, scratc hes or other damage to the sonar sensors.
• Check that water has not accu mulated in the sonar sensors.
CAUTION:
Use water, cotton swab, or other soft material for cleaning the sensors.
1. Check that there are no obstacles wit hin each sonar sensor's detection range.
2. Check that there are no nearby ultrasound sources such as the sounds of vehicle horns, motorcycle
engines or truck air brakes.
3. Check that the vehicle is on a level surface.
Sonar sensors Detection range
Front Approx. 1.0 m (3 ft.) maximum
Rear Approx. 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) maximum

On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceINFOID:0000000005147868
CHECKING CONDITION OF INSTALLATION
• Check installation condition of steering gear assembly, front suspension, axle and steering column.
• Check if movement exists when steering wheel is mo ved up and down, to the left and right and to the axial
direction.
• Check if the nuts for steering gear assembly are loose. Refer to ST-23, "
Removal and Installation".
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL PLAY
1. Turn tires straight ahead, start engine, then turn steer ing wheel to the left and right lightly, and measure
steering wheel movement on the outer circumference when steering wheel is turned up to the point where
tires start moving.
CHECKING NEUTRAL POSITION ON STEERING WHEEL
• Check neutral position on steering wheel after confirming that front wheel alignment is correct. Refer to FSU-
6, "Front Wheel Alignment".
1. Turn tires straight ahead, check if steering wheel is in the neutral position.
2. If it is not in the neutral position, remo ve steering wheel and reinstall it correctly.
3. If the neutral position cannot be attained by repositi oning the steering wheel two teeth or less on steering
stem, loosen tie-rod lock nuts of steering outer socket s, then adjust tie-rods by the same amount in the
opposite direction.
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL TURNING FORCE
1. Park vehicle on a level, dry surface and set parking brake.
2. Start engine.
3. Bring power steering fluid up to operating temperature of 60 °– 80° C (140° – 176°F).
4. Tires need to be inflated to specified pressure. Refer to WT-52, "
Tire".
5. Check steering wheel turning force using Tool when steering wheel has been turned 360 ° from the neutral position.
End play of the axial direction for steering wheel : Refer to
ST-35, "
Steering Wheel".
