328 Vehicle Care
Warning (Continued)
Never tow the vehicle to start
because a surge forward when
the engine starts could cause a
collision with the tow vehicle.
Also, this vehicle has a 12-volt
battery, 12-volt starting system
and a negative ground electrical
system; be sure the vehicle or
equipment used to jump start your
engine is also 12-volt. Use of any
other system may damage the
vehicle's electrical components.
Under no circumstances should
the battery's positive and negative
terminals be put in contact with
one another.
When connecting the cables,
under no circumstances should
the clips be allowed to touch each
other.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Do not disconnect a battery
terminal with the engine running.
It could cause a breakdown in the
electrical system.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
If you notice battery fluid leaking,
have an inspection carried out
immediately by the nearest dealer.
Diesel engine vehicles have more
than one battery because of the
higher torque required to start a
diesel engine. This procedure can
be used to start a single-battery
vehicle from any of the diesel
vehicle's batteries. However, at low
temperatures, it may not be possible
to start a diesel engine from a single
battery from another vehicle. 1. Use a vehicle that has a charged battery with the same
voltage. Make sure that the
other vehicle also has a 12-volt
starting system, and that it is the negative (–) terminal which
is grounded (attached to the
engine block, or frame rail).
2. Position the vehicle with the good (charged) battery so that
the booster (jumper) cables will
reach. But never let the
vehicles touch. Also, be sure
the booster cables to be used
do not have loose or missing
insulation.
3. In both vehicles, turn off the ignition (engine control) switch
and all lights and accessories
except the hazard flasher or
any lights needed for the work
area. In both vehicles, apply
the parking brake firmly and
move the selector lever to the
"P" position.

354 Service and Maintenance
How to check: This operation could
be difficult and you may choose to
have this done at your dealer
Service Department.
1. Turn the engine control switch to
the "ON" position (not to start the
engine), and press the brake pedal
several times.
2. Check for the noisy sound of the
electric vacuum pump inside the
instrument panel at the same time
as vacuum warning buzzer sound,
and check that the brake low
vacuum warning light comes on.
3. Then, after you start the engine,
the main vacuum pump driven by
the engine will start running. If the
electric vacuum pump operation
(noisy sound) and the vacuum
warning buzzer stop, and the brake
low vacuum warning light goes off
thereafter, the operation is normal.
4. If you cannot hear the noisy
sound of the electric vacuum pump,
check the electrical wiring and
repair as necessary. If it cannot be
repaired, replace the electric
vacuum pump.20. BRAKE FLUID :
Check the fluid
in the brake fluid reservoir every
12 000 km (7,500 miles) and replace
fluid every 48 000 km
(30,000 miles).
21. BRAKE LINE AND HOSES :
Check lines and hoses for proper
hook-up, binding, leaks, cracks,
chafing, etc. every 48 000 km
(30,000 miles). Any questionable
parts should be replaced or repaired
at once. When rubbing or wear is
noted on lines or hoses, the cause
must be corrected at once.
22. HYDRAULIC UNIT : Change
every 10 years.
23. DIFFERENTIAL GEAR OIL :
Replace lubricant every 48 000 km

within 0 to 10 mm (0 to 0.4 inch) of
the bottom edge of the filler hole if
necessary. 24. POWER STEERING FLUID :
Replace power steering fluid every
24 months or 60 000 km
(37,500 miles), whichever occurs
first.
25. STEERING WHEEL FREE

play after the first 1 040 km
(650 miles) and then every
10 400 km (6,500 miles).
Steering wheel free play
10-50 mm (0.39-1.97 in)
