Inspection and maintenance
following rough road operation E00606700383
After
operating the vehicle in rough road condi-
tions, be sure to perform the following inspection
and maintenance procedures:
l Check that the vehicle has not been damaged
by rocks, gravel, etc.
l Carefully wash the vehicle with water.
Drive the vehicle slowly while lightly depress-
ing the brake pedal in order to dry out the
brakes. If the brakes still do not function prop-
erly, we recommend you to have the brakes
checked as soon as possible.

ging the radiator core.
l Check the inside of the vehicle. If water en-
try is found, dry the carpet etc.
l Inspect the headlamps, If the headlamp bulb
is flooded with water, we recommend you to
have it drained. Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System
(AVAS) E00631600038
The
Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS) is
a device that uses sound to alert pedestrians of the
presence of the vehicle. The system operates when
the vehicle speed is about 35 km/h (22 mph) or less.
The sound starts when the AVAS is operated in the
following conditions.
l When the vehicle speed is about 3 km/h
(2 mph) or less and the brake pedal is not de-
pressed.
l When the vehicle speed is about 3 km/h
(2 mph) to 35 km/h (22 mph).

The sound does not start in the following cases. l When the vehicle speed is about 3 km/h
(2 mph) or less and the brake pedal is de-
pressed.
l When the vehicle speed is about 35 km/h
(22 mph) or more.
l When the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK)
position.
l When the indication lamp (A) in the AVAS
OFF switch illuminates. Under normal conditions, the indication lamp (A) il-
luminates
when the electric motor switch is turned
to the “ON” position and goes off a few seconds later. WARNING
l Even
if the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting Sys-
tem (AVAS) sounds, pay special attention
to pedestrians.
Pedestrians may not notice the oncoming
vehicle, which may cause an accident re-
sulting in serious personal injury or death. Starting and driving

NOTE
l Do
not allow the wiper arm to fall onto the
window glass; it could damage the glass. 4. Firmly
insert the retainer (C) into the groove
(D) in the wiper blade.
Refer to the illustration to ensure that the re-
tainers are correctly aligned as you insert
them into the groove. NOTE
l If

a retainer is not supplied with the new wip-
er blade, use the retainer from the old blade. General maintenance

Coolant and oil leakage
Look

under the body of your vehicle to check for
coolant and oil leakage.
Exterior and interior lamp operation
Operate the combination lamp switch to check that
all lamps are functioning properly.
If the lamps do not illuminate, the probable cause
is a blown fuse or defective lamp bulb. Check the
fuses first. If there is no blown fuse, check the
lamp bulbs.
For information regarding the inspection and re-
placement of the fuses and the bulbs, refer to
“Fuses” on page 8-20 and “Replacement of lamp
bulbs” on page 8-23.
If the fuses and bulbs are all OK, we recommend
you to have your vehicle checked and repaired.
Meter, gauge and indicator/warning
lamps operation
Start the electric motor unit and check the opera-
tion of all instruments, gauges and indication and
warning lamps.
If there is anything wrong, we recommend you to
have your vehicle inspected.
Hinges and latches lubrication
Check all latches and hinges, and, if necessary,
have them lubricated. Vehicle care and Maintenance

B- Fuse is OK
C- Blown fuse
NOTE l If
any system does not function but the fuse
corresponding to that system is normal, there
may be a fault in the system elsewhere. We
recommend you to have your vehicle checked.
4. Insert a new fuse of the same capacity by us- ing the fuse puller into the same place at the
fuse block. CAUTION
l
If
the newly inserted fuse blows again af-
ter a short time, we recommend you to
have the electrical system checked to find
the cause and rectify it.
l Never use a fuse with a capacity larger
than that specified or any substitute, such
as wire, foil, etc.; doing so will cause the
circuit wiring to heat up and this could
cause fire. Replacement of lamp bulbs
E08404600018
Before

replacing a bulb, ensure the lamp is off. Do
not touch the glass part of the new bulb with your
bare fingers; the skin oil left on the glass will evap-
orate when the bulb gets hot and the vapour will
condense on the reflector and dim the surface. CAUTION
l
Bulbs
are extremely hot immediately af-
ter being turned off.
When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool
sufficiently before touching it. You could
otherwise be burnt.
NOTE l If

you are unsure of how to carry out the
work as required, we recommend you to con-
sult a specialist.
l Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body
when removing a lamp or lens.
l When it rains or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy. This is the same phenomenon
as when window glass mists up on a humid
day, and does not indicate a functional prob-
lem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will
remove the fog. However, if water gathers in-
side the lamp, we recommend you to have
the lamp checked.
