Remember to check and recharge
the battery as necessary, as well as
keep connection clean.
The hydrometer (green-eye test
indicator) in the top of each battery
(if equipped) provides information
for testing purposes only.
If the vehicle is not going to be
driven for 30 days or longer,
disconnect the ground cable from
the negative (–) terminal of the
batteries to prevent discharge.
For full power needs at replacement
time, a battery with the same
specifications, as shown on the
original battery's label, is
recommended.{Warning
WARNING:Battery posts,
terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds, chemicals known to
the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Batteries also
contain other chemicals known to
the State of California to cause
cancer. WASH HANDS AFTER
HANDLING. For more information

Fuel Filter
Change the fuel filter in accordance
with the Maintenance Schedule or
when the fuel filter indicator light
(amber) comes on.
Drain the water when the water
separator (fuel filter) warning light
comes on. (Drain the water from the
chassis-side fuel filter and
engine-side fuel filter.)
Failure to replace the fuel filter when
needed may lead to fuel system
damage. Your authorized dealer can
inspect your fuel filter and replace
your fuel filter, if needed.

Rear Axle (Oil Level
Check)
Rear Axle Differential Gear Oil
The rear axle differential gear oil
level must be checked for its level
and it must be changed according to
the Maintenance Schedule.
Use the oil quantities indicated later
in this section only as guidelines
when changing the rear axle
differential gear oil.
After changing the oil, ensure that it
is at the correct level.
Drained oil must be disposed of in a
method conforming to the regulatory
requirements in your state.Checking the Oil Level
1. Remove the oil level plug.
2. Check that the oil level (1) is
0 mm to 10 mm (0 to 0.4 in)
below the bottom edge of the
oil level plug hole (2). If the oil
level is too low, add oil through
the oil level plug hole.
3. Fasten the oil level plug to the specified torque. Plug
tightening torque is 84 Nm
(8.6 kgFm/62 lb ft).
Any dirt on the plug should be
wiped off before installing it.

2. Continue pushing in the wiperrubber insert until the wiper
blade's hook engages with the
hole in it, and then confirm that
the rubber insert is securely
held in place.
3. Attach the wiper blade to the wiper arm.Headlamp Aiming
For vertical aiming, turn the two
screws indicated by arrows in the
diagram.
1. Remove the rubber beneath the headlight.
2. Two screws should be turned in the same direction at the
same time to adjust aiming.
3. When the headlamp aiming is out of position, contact your
dealer.
Bulb Replacement
Caution
Do not replace incandescent
bulbs with aftermarket LED
replacement bulbs. This can
cause damage to the vehicle
electrical system.
Bulbs
1. Check each bulb for blowout.
2. If a bulb has blown out, replaceit. Always place the engine
control switch in the “LOCK”
position and place all the other
switches in the “OFF”position
before replacing the blown
bulbs.
3. If you need assistance replacing any bulbs, contact
your dealer.
Turn Signals
The flasher unit activates both the
turn signal circuits and the hazard
circuit. Should a lamp burn out, the

278 Vehicle Care
flasher unit will continue to operate.
Check the turn signal lamps visually
before the vehicle is used.
Bulb Wattage
{Warning
Using bulbs with a wattage other
than that specified could cause
the bulb or the wiring to become
hot. This could result in the
warping of the lens and case, and
it could also lead to the outbreak
of fire.
Bulbs are hot immediately after
they go out. When replacing the
bulbs, avoid being burned by
making sure they are fully cooled.
Never drive the vehicle with the
bulbs not working. This could
result in an accident.
You and others could be seriously
injured.When one bulb of a pair of lamps,
such as a headlamp blows out, the
other bulb is approaching the end of
its useful life. We recommend that
both be changed at the same time.
For the lamps (lighting equipment)
such as headlamps, inside of the
lens can mist up momentarily when
driving in the rain or during the car
wash. Also, the temperature
difference between inside and
outside of the lamps can sometimes
cause the water condensation
inside the lens. This is not abnormal
because this is the same
phenomenon as the windshield or
door glass fogs up when it rains.
If the mist goes away minutes after
the lamp is turned on, things are
normal.

Interior Lamps
1. Remove the lens and pull outthe bulb.
2. To install the lights, follow the removal procedure in reverse.
Electrical System
Electrical System
Overload
Electrical System
Following the after-delivery service,
it is the owner's responsibility to
check all wiring periodically for
cracked, chafed or oil-soaked
insulation and maintain it in a clean
and tight condition to ensure
satisfactory operation of the
electrical system.
Replacing the Fuses and Relays
Your vehicle is equipped with fuses
and fusible links to protect your
electrical wiring and equipment in
case of electrical overload.
When the lights do not come on or
flash, or the equipment in the
electrical system does not operate,
check to see if a fuse has blown. Fuses :
In case of an electrical
overload, the fuse will blow and stop
the flow of current in the circuit
before electrical components
become damaged.
The cause of the circuit overload
must be identified and corrected
before the blown fuse is replaced,
or else the new fuse will also blow.
Since different circuits handle
different amounts of current, fuses
of various ampere ratings are used.
Be sure to replace a blown fuse with
a fuse of the correct rating.
To know if a fuse is blown or not,
remove the suspected fuse and look
at the wire for a break. If the wire is
broken, replace the fuse with one of
equal amperage rating.
The amperage rating of each fuse is
molded in its head.
Fuses are installed in the fuse
panel.

Slow-blow fuses protect the
electrical circuits, and they are
installed so that they can be quickly
replaced if there is a malfunction.
If an overload exists in the circuit
from the battery, the slow-blow fuse
will blow out before the wiring
harness is damaged to protect the
electrical circuitry. InspectionWhen the headlights and other
devices in the electrical system do
not work, but there is no problem
with the fuses, check the
slow-blow fuse.
The slow-blow fuse is blown if it
looks like the illustration.
Immediately contact the nearest
dealer.

Tire Inflation
{Warning
To reduce the risk of loss of
vehicle control and personal
injury:
Tires must be properly inflated,
and your vehicle must not be
overloaded (see the information
on Information on Loading the
Vehicle 058 and "Tire Load and
Inflation Table" under Tire
Pressure 0307).
Be sure to keep tires properly
inflated. A tire that is run while
seriously underinflated may
overheat to the point where the
tire may lose air suddenly and/or
catch fire, possibly resulting in
personal injury and/or property
damage. See
“Tire Load and Inflation Table”
under Tire Pressure 0307.
In no case should the front or rear
tire load exceed the maximum
recommended gross axle weight
rating (front GAWR or rear GAWR).
The efficiency of the vehicle will be
upset if air pressure in the tires are
not equal. Balanced inflation results
when the tires on the same axle
carry the same air pressure.
A difference in pressure between
the front and rear tires may be
permissible within certain limitations,
however, there should not be a
difference in pressures between the
right and left tires on the same axle.
Always use a truck tire pressure
gauge (a pocket-type gauge is not
advised) when checking inflation
pressures. Visual inspection of tires
for inflation pressures is not enough,
especially in the case of radial tires.
Underinflated radial tires may look
similar to correctly inflated radial
tires. If the inflation pressure on a
tire is found to be low frequently,
have your dealer correct the cause. Be sure to install the tire inflation
valve caps to prevent dirt and
moisture from getting into the valve
core, which could cause air leakage.
An underinflated tire in a dual wheel
assembly is harder to notice than
one in a single wheel assembly. The
properly inflated dual tire carries its
own load plus that of the
underinflated tire. Both tires can
overheat, which may result in
property damage and/or personal
injury (see previous WARNING).
Tires Used or Stored for a Long
Period of Time
Tires are a rubber product and
degrade over time, even if they are
not being used. If any of your tires is
5 to 7 years old or more, please
have them inspected for safe
driving. For further information,
please check with the tire
manufacturer.
Dual Tire Operation
The outer tire of a pair on dual
wheel installations generally wears
faster than the inner tire. If this
