PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Introduction of Periodic MaintenanceINFOID:0000000006287729
Two different maintenance schedules are provided, and should be used, depending upon the conditions in
which the vehicle is mainly operated. After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, continue the periodic
maintenance at the same mileage/time intervals.
Schedule 1INFOID:0000000006287730

Abbreviations: R = Replace. I = Inspec t. Correct or replace if necessary. [ ]: At the mileage intervals only
Schedule 1Follow Periodic Maintenance Schedule 1 if the driving habits frequently include
one or more of the following driving conditions:
 Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles (8 km).
 Repeated short trips of less than 10 miles (16 km) with outside temperatures
remaining below freezing.
 Operating in hot weather in stop-and-go “rush hour” traffic.
 Extensive idling and/or low speed driving for long distances, such as police, taxi
or door-to-door delivery use.
 Driving in dusty conditions.
 Driving on rough, muddy, or salt spread roads.
 Towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier. Emission Control Sys-

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
NOTE:
(1) If towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) fluid /oil at every
30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months.
(2) Automatic transmission fluid is maintenance-free.
(3) Refer to “Tire rotation” unde r the “General maintenance” heading earlier in this section.

SPEEDOMETER : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006221697
 The ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) conv erts the rectangular wave signal provided by the wheel
sensor to a vehicle speed signal and transmits it to the combination meter via CAN communication.
 The combination meter indicates the vehicle speed to the speedometer according to the vehicle speed sig-
nal received via CAN communication.

W/L ON HISTORY
 Stores histories when warning/indicator lamp is turned on.
 “W/L ON HISTORY” indicates the “TIME” when the warning/ indicator lamp is turned on.
 The “TIME” above is:
- 0: The condition that the warning/indicator lamp has been turned on 1 or more times after starting the engine and waiting for 30 seconds.
- 1 - 39: The number of times the engine was restarted after the 0 condition.
- NO W/L ON HISTORY: Stores NO (0) turning on history of warning/indicator lamp.
NOTE:
 W/L ON HISTORY is not stored for approximately 30 seconds after the engine starts.
 Brake warning lamp does not store any history when the parking brake is applied or the brake fluid level gets
low.

MEMORY RESET PROCEDURE
1. Please observe the following instructi ons at confirming the sunroof operation.
NOTE:
Do not disconnect the electronic power while the sunroof is operating or within 5 seconds after the sunroof
stops (to wipe-out the memory of lid position and operating friction).
2. Initialization of system should be conducted after the following conditions.
 When the sunroof motor is changed.
 When the sunroof does not operate normally. (Incomplete initialization conditions)
ADDITIONAL SERVICE WHEN REPLACING CONTROL UNIT : Special Repair Re-
quirement
INFOID:0000000006141231
INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE
If the sunroof does not close or open automatically, us e the following procedure to return sunroof operation to
normal.
1. Press the tilt up switch and start the tilt up operation.
2. Release the tilt up switch once, press the tilt up switch again, press and hold the switch until lid pops up.
3. The glass lid moves slight toward tilt up direction then stop. (Press and hold the switch during this opera- tion)
4. Release the switch again, and press the tilt up s witch within the first 10 seconds. (Press and hold the
switch)
5. After 4 seconds, the glass lid will be automatically operated in sequence of tilt down, slide open and slide
close.
6. After the glass lid stops, release the switch 0.5 second later. (Press and hold the switch during this opera-
tion)
7. If slide switch operates normally, this initialization is done.
ANTI-PINCH FUNCTION
1. Full open the sunroof.
2. Place a wooden piece (wooden hammer handle, etc.) at near fully closed position.
3. Close the sunroof completely with auto-slide close.
Check that sunroof lowers for approximately 150 mm (5 .91in) or 2 seconds with out pinching a wooden piece
and stops.
CAUTION:
 Never check with hands and other part of body because they may be pinched. Never get pinched.
 Depending on environment and driving conditions, if a similar impact or lord is applied to the sun-
roof it may lower.
 Check that auto-slide operates before inspect ion when system initialization is performed.
 Perform initial setting when auto-slide operatio n or anti-pinch function does not operate normally.
