About This Manual
Introduction
This manual covers diagnosis and testing and
repair procedures.
It is structured into groups and sections, with
specific system sections grouped together under
their relevant group.
A group covers a specific portion of the vehicle.
The manual is divided into five groups, General
Information, Chassis, Powertrain, Electrical and
Body and Paint. The number of the group is the
first number of a section number.
Within Etis, the navigation tree will list the groups.
After selecting a group the navigation tree will then
list the sections within that group. Each section has
a contents list detailing Specifications, Description
and Operation, Diagnosis and Testing, General
Procedures, Disassembly and Assembly, Removal
and Installation.
References to LH (left-hand) and RH
(right-hand)
All LH and RH references to the vehicle are taken
from a position sitting in the driver seat looking
forward.

How to use Repair Procedures
This manual has been written in a format that is
designed to meet the needs of technicians
worldwide. It provides general descriptions for
accomplishing repair work with tested and effective
techniques.
Important Safety Instructions
Appropriate service methods and correct repair
procedures are essential for the safe and reliable
operation of all vehicles as well as the personal
safety of the individual carrying out the work.
Anyone who departs from the instructions provided
in this manual must first establish that personal safety or vehicle integrity is not compromised by
the choice of method, tools or components.
Warnings, Cautions and Notes in This
Manual
WARNING: Warnings are used to indicate
that failure to follow a procedure correctly
may result in personal injury.
CAUTION: Cautions are used to indicate
that failure to follow a procedure correctly
may result in damage to the vehicle or
equipment being used.
NOTE: Notes are used to provide additional
essential information required to carry out a
complete and satisfactory repair.
Generic warnings or cautions are in their relevant
description and operation procedure within section
100-00. If the generic warnings or cautions are
required for a procedure, there will be a referral to
the appropriate description and operation
procedure.
If a warning, caution or note only applies to one
step, it is placed at the beginning of the specific
step.
Global Authoring Standards (GAS) Repair
Procedures
NOTE: GAS style procedures can be identified by
steps that have no accompanying step text and
the magenta color of the electrical connectors and
fasteners such as nuts, bolts, clamps or clips.
A GAS removal and installation procedure uses a
sequence of color illustrations to indicate the order
to be followed when removing/disassembling or
installing/assembling a component.
Many of the GAS procedures will have the
installation information within the removal steps.
These procedures will have the following note at
the beginning of the procedure:
NOTE: Removal steps in this procedure may
contain installation details.
Reuse of fasteners and seals and gaskets
The following list details the general policy for the
reuse of fasteners and seals and gaskets.
