WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY 3- 11
Lower the car to the ground by turning the wheel nut wrench counterclock-wise. Then position the wrench as shown in the drawing and tighten the wheel nuts. Be sure the socket is seatedcompletely over the nut. Do not stand on the wrench handle or use an exten- sion pipe over the wrench handle.Go around the wheel tightening every other nut until they are all tight. Then double-check each nut for tightness.After changing wheels, have a techni- cian tighten the wheel nuts to their proper torque as soon as possible.

D060J01FC-GAT After Changing Wheels If you have a tire gauge, remove the valve cap and check the air pressure.If the pressure is lower than recom- mended, drive slowly to the nearest service station and inflate to the cor-rect pressure. If it is too high, adjust it until it is correct. Always reinstall the valve cap after checking or adjustingtire pressure. If the cap is not replaced, air may leak from the tire. If you lose a valve cap, buy another and install it assoon as possible.

5- 10 VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
F070L01A-AAT
o Suspension Mounting Bolts
Check the suspension connections
for looseness or damage. Retighten to the specified torque. F070M01A-AAT
o Steering Gear Box, Linkage &
Boots/Lower arm Ball Joint
With the vehicle stopped and engine
off, check for excessive free-play inthe steering wheel. Check the linkage for bends or damage. Check the dust boots and ball joints for deterioration,cracks, or damage. Replace any dam- aged parts.
F070N01A-AAT
o Power Steering Pump, Belt and
Hoses
Check the power steering pump and
hoses for leakage and damage. Re- place any damaged or leaking parts immediately. Inspect the power steer- ing belt for evidence of cuts, cracks,excessive wear, oiliness and proper tension. Replace or adjust it if neces- sary.
F070J01A-AAT
o Brake Pads, Calipers and
Rotors
Check the pads for excessive wear,
discs for run out and wear, and cali-pers for fluid leakage.
F070K01A-AAT
o Exhaust Pipe and Muffler
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler and hangers for cracks, dete-rioration, or damage. Start the engineand listen carefully for any exhaust gas leakage. Tighten connections or replace parts as necessary.
F070F01A-AAT
o Brake Hoses and Lines Visually check for proper installation, chafing, cracks, deterioration and any leakage. Replace any deteriorated or damaged parts immediately. F070G02A-AAT
o Brake Fluid Check brake fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir. The level should be between "MIN" and "MAX" marks onthe side of the reservoir. Use only hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4. F070H01A-AAT
o Rear Brake Drums/Linings
Parking Brake
Check the rear brake drums and lin- ings for scoring, burning, leaking fluid, broken parts, and excessive wear. Inspect the parking brake system in-cluding the parking brake lever and cables. For detailed service proce- dures, refer to the Shop Manual.

The use of a proprietary stabiliser will assist in achieving an inherently stable outfit but whilst the use of such equip-ment will improve the characteristics of a balanced outfit, it will not compen- sate for a badly loaded and thereforeunstable outfit. The tyres and braking equipment fitted to the trailer or caravan must be main- tained in accordance with the recom- mendations of the manufacturer. Spe-cial attention should be paid to tyres which deteriorate through time and exposure rather than as a result of thedistances towed. The inside walls of the tyres should be inspected along with the outside walls for cracking anddamage. The trailer wheel nut torque must be checked on a regular basis, preferably before each towing ses-sion. The trailer hitch and the safety catch mechanism must be maintained in good working order. The trailer break away cable or chain should be inspected fordamage and should be attached to the vehicle towing attachment each and every time the trailer is hitched to thevehicle. Whilst towing, the performance of the vehicle will be reduced in terms of acceleration, braking and handling dueto the increased loads placed upon the vehicle. The driver should anticipate the change in characteristics and ad-just the driving style in keeping with these changes. Care should be exer- cised when cornering and braking toprevent the outfit becoming uncontrol- lable by reducing cornering speeds and allowing increased braking dis-tances. The driver should exercise care to ensure that when pulling away from rest particularly on uphill gradients the clutch unit is not subjected to exces-sive slippage which will reduce the useful life of this component. Use of the "Overdrive Off" "2" and "L" posi-tions when driving vehicles with auto- matic transmission will assist with brak- ing performance when long down hillgradients are encountered. Improved acceleration performance will be avail- able by selecting "Overdrive Off","2",or "1" depending upon road speed if it is found that the transmission unit makes an undesirable upshift whilsthill climbing or overtaking. The trans- mission unit should be operated in "D" with the Overdrive "On" under normal circumstances to enhance fueleconomy and reduce noise and en- gine wear.
CAUTION:
The use of a badly loaded or over-loaded trailer may result in instabil- ity.This following specifications are recommended when towing a trailer. The loaded trailer weight orthe Gross Train Weight must not exceed the values in the following chart .

SD070J2-E 8. Lower Vehicle and Tighten
Nuts
Lower the car to the ground turning the wheel nut wrench counterclockwise. When the vehicle is firmly on the ground, remove the jack and tightenthe wheel nuts securely. At the first available opportunity, the wheel nut torque should be checked with a suit-able torque wrench. Wheel nut tightening torque Steel wheel & aluminium alloy wheel: 90-110 Nm, 100 kg.cm (65-80 lb.ft)
SD070I1-E 7. Re-install Wheel NutsFit the wheel nuts onto the studs and tighten with the wheel brace.
HTB227
Using the wheel brace, remove the nuts and slide the wheel off the hub and wheel studs. Lie the wheel flat toprevent it from rolling. Ensure that the faces of the wheel and hub are clean. Position the spare wheel over the studsand slide it up to the hub.
HTB229
WARNING:
It is important that the faces of the wheel and hub are clean prior toinstalling the wheel. The prescence of dirt or other matter in the wheel or hub faces could result in thewheel nuts becoming loose whilst the vehicle is being driven.
