Seats and Restraints 59
{Warning
To help avoid personal injury or
death during a collision or sudden
maneuver, always thread both the
lap and shoulder belt through the
locking clip when securing a child
restraint on the outboard seat.
If the clip is not used or installed
properly, the child restraint may
move or tip over when your
vehicle turns or stops abruptly.
Secure the child restraint with the
lap belt portion (1) of the seat belt in
accordance with the restraintmanufacturer's instructions. Then
thread both the lap (1) and shoulder
belt (2) portions through the locking
clip. Push and pull the child restraint

Vehicle Care 341
Warning (Continued)
neutral detergent has been
dissolved to gently wipe the
safety belts.
Follow the manufacturer's advice
whenever cleaning agents or
other chemicals are used, inside
or outside the vehicle. Some
cleaners may be poisonous or
flammable, and improper use may
cause personal injury or damage.
When cleaning the inside or
outside of the vehicle, do not use
volatile cleaning solvents, such as
acetone, lacquer thinners, enamel
reducers, nail polish removers; or
such cleaning materials as
laundry soaps, bleaches or
reducing agents, except as noted
in the following fabric cleaning
advice on stain removal. Never
use carbon tetrachloride,
gasoline, benzene or naphtha for
any cleaning purpose.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Open all vehicle doors for
ventilation when ANY cleaning
agents or other chemicals are
used in the interior. Overexposure
to some vapors may result in a
health problem that is more likely
to occur in small, unventilated
spaces.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
The interior of the vehicle must
never be cleaned using acidic or
alkaline solvents, or petroleum
ether, gasoline, and other organic
solvents. Failure to observe this
precaution can result in
discoloration and staining. It should
be noted that certain types of
cleaning products contain these
compounds. Be sure to read
cleaning product labels carefully.
Air fresheners (liquid, solid, gel or
plate types) must not come into
direct contact with, or spill onto,
interior components such as the air conditioning or audio system.
Compounds contained in these
products can cause discoloration,
staining or peeling of paint.
Glass cleaners that contain these
compounds must not be used to
clean the inside of the windshield or
window glass. To clean the glass,
wipe it using a cloth wet with warm
or cold water.
To avoid possible permanent
discoloration of light colored seats,
Do not let materials with non-fast
colors come into contact with seat
trim materials until these materials
are totally dry. This includes certain
types of casual clothing, such as
colored denims, corduroys, leathers
and suedes; also decorative paper,
With the use of modern trim
materials, it is very important that
you use proper cleaning techniques
and cleaners. Failing to do this on
the first cleaning may result in water
spots, spot rings or setting of stains
or soilage - all of which are more
difficult to remove in a second
cleaning.

Service and Maintenance 353
If you have driven for a prolonged
period of time or in city traffic in hot
weather, wait until the fluid cools
down (Approx. 30 minutes) before
checking fluid level.
Single cab: Remove the dipstick
located at the rear right side of the
engine.
Crew cab: Remove the dipstick
located beneath the rear-of- engine
inspection panel. After unlatching
the A/T fluid inspection cover, the
dipstick will be visible.
Carefully touch the wet end of the
dipstick to find out if the fluid is cool,
warm or hot. Wipe it clean and push
it back in until the cap seats. Pull
out the dipstick and read the fluid
level.
If it felt cool, about room
temperature, the level should be in
the "C" range.
If it felt warm, about normal
operating temperature of 70 °C to
80 °C (158 °F to 176 °F), the level
should be in the "H" range.
16. ROTATE TIRES :To equalize
wear, rotate tires and adjust tire
pressures at every 12 000 km
(7,500 miles). See Tire Rotation
0 323.
17. BRAKE LINING AND PAD FOR
WEAR : Check drum brake linings
and disc brake pads for wear or
cracks at every 12 000 km
(7,500 miles). Check brakes
(including parking brake) more often
if conditions and habits result in
frequent braking.
Front disc brakes have built-in wear
indicators which are designed to
make a high pitched squeal or
cricket-like warning sound when the
brake pads are worn to the point
where new pads are needed. When the truck is in motion, the
sound may be constant or it may
come and go.
Pressing the brake pedal firmly may
cause the sound to stop.
Have the brake linings or the brake
pads replaced by your authorized
dealer as soon as possible after the
warning first becomes evident.
Failure to do so can result in
expensive damage to the brake
system or a serious accident.
18. BRAKE DRUM AND ROTOR
FOR WEAR AND DAMAGE :
Check brake drums (rear and
parking) and rotors for wear or
damage every 48 000 km
(30,000 miles) or 12 months
whichever occurs first.
19. BRAKE ELECTRIC VACUUM
PUMP (4500 Model) :
Inspect the
brake electric vacuum pump
operation every 12 000 km
(7,500 miles) or 12 months,
whichever occurs first.
