4) Screw new filter on oil filter stand by hand until the filter O-ring contacts mounting surface.
CAUTION! 
To tighten oil filter prop erly, it is important to 
accurately identify the position at which filter 
O-ring first contacts mounting surface.
 
5) Tighten the filter (1) 3/4 tu rn from the point of contact 
with the mounting surface using an oil filter wrench 
(2).
Tightening torque
Oil filter (b):  14 N·m (1 .4 kgf-m, 10.5 lb-ft) for 
reference
6) Replenish oil until oil leve l is brought to FULL level 
mark on dipstick (oil pan and oil filter capacity). The 
filler inlet is at the top of  the cylinder head cover. It is 
recommended to use engine oil of SG, SH, SJ, SL or 
SM grade. Select the appropriate oil viscosity 
according to the proper engine oil viscosity chart [A].
NOTE
Engine oil capacity is specified as the 
following.
However, note that the amount of oil required 
when actually changing oil may somewhat 
differ from the data depending on various 
conditions (temperature, viscosity, etc.).
 
Engine oil specification
Oil pan capacity: About 3.7 liters (7.8 / 6.5 US / 
lmp pt.)
Oil filter capacity: About 0.2 liter (0.4 / 0.3 US / 
lmp pt.)
Others: About 0.3 liter (0 .6 / 0.5 US / lmp pt.)
Total: About 4.2 liters (8.9 / 7.4 US / lmp pt.) 7) Check oil filter and drain plug for oil leakage.
8) Start engine and run it for 3 minutes. Stop it and wait 
another 5 minutes before checking oil level. Add oil, 
as necessary, to bring oil le vel to FULL level mark (1) 
on dipstick.
Engine Coolant ChangeS7RS0B0206005
WARNING! 
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not 
remove radiator cap while engine and 
radiator are still hot. Scalding fluid and steam 
can be blown out under pressure if cap is 
taken off too soon.
 
CAUTION! 
When changing engine coolant, use mixture 
of 50% specified water and 50% ANTIFREEZE 
/ ANTICORROSION COOLANT for the 
purpose of corrosion protection and 
lubrication.
 
Change engine coolant with new one referring to 
“Cooling System Flush and Refill in Section 1F”.

Brake
Foot brake
Check the following:
• that brake pedal has proper travel,
• that brake works properly,
• that it is free from noise,
• that vehicle does not pull to one side when brake is applied.
• and that brake do not drag.
Parking brake
Check that lever has proper travel.
WARNING! 
With vehicle parked on a fairly steep slope, 
make sure nothing is in the way downhill to 
avoid any personal injury or property 
damage. Be prepared to apply regular brake 
quickly even if vehicle should start to move.
 
Check to ensure that parking brake is fully effective 
when the vehicle is stopped on the safe slope and brake 
lever is pulled all the way.
Steering
• Check to ensure that steering wheel is free from  instability, or abnormally heavy feeling. • Check that the vehicle does not wander or pull to one 
side.
Engine
• Check that engine responds readily at all speeds.
• Check that engine is free from abnormal noise and  abnormal vibration.
Body, Wheels and Power Transmitting System
Check that body, wheels and  power transmitting system 
are free from abnormal noise and abnormal vibration or 
any other abnormal condition.
Meters and Gauge
Check that speedometer, odometer, fuel meter, 
temperature gauge, etc. are operating accurately.
Lights
Check that all lights operate properly.
Windshield Defroster
Periodically check that ai r comes out from defroster 
outlet when operating heater or air conditioning.
Set mode control lever to defroster position and fan 
switch lever to “HI” position for this check.

Repair Instructions
Manual Transaxle Oil ChangeS7RS0B5206001
1) Before changing or inspecting oil, be sure to stop engine and lift vehicle horizontally.
2) With vehicle lifted up, check oil level and leakage. If leakage exists, correct it.
NOTE
Whenever vehicle is hoisted for any other 
service work than oil change, also be sure to 
check for oil leakage.
 
3) Remove oil filler plug (2).
4) Remove drain plug (1), and drain old oil. 5) Apply sealant to thread of drain plug (1), and tighten 
it to specified torque.
