IClean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent
prior to inspection or assembly.
IReplace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers,
cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new ones.
IReplace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and
needle bearings as a set.
IArrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their
assembled locations and sequence.
IDo not touch the terminals of electrical components which use
microcomputers (such as ECMs).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.
IAfter disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, attach a tag to indi-
cate the proper connection.
IUse only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.
IUse approved bonding agent, sealants or their equivalents
when required.
IUse tools and recommended special tools where specified for
safe and efficient service repairs.
IWhen repairing the fuel, oil, water, vacuum or exhaust
systems, check all affected lines for leaks.
IDispose of drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning parts in
an appropriate manner.
WARNING:
To prevent ECM from storing the diagnostic trouble codes, do
not carelessly disconnect the harness connectors which are
related to the engine control system and TCM (Transmission
Control Module) system. The connectors should be discon-
nected only when working according to the WORK FLOW of
TROUBLE DIAGNOSES in EC and AT sections.
SGI787
PRECAUTIONS FOR MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION
SYSTEM OR ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
NBGI0001S03IBefore connecting or disconnecting any harness connector for
the multiport fuel injection system or ECM (Engine Control
Module):
Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
Disconnect negative battery terminal.
Otherwise, there may be damage to ECM.
IBefore disconnecting pressurized fuel line from fuel pump to
injectors, be sure to release fuel pressure.
IBe careful not to jar components such as ECM and mass air
flow sensor.
PRECAUTIONS FOR THREE WAY CATALYSTNBGI0001S04If a large amount of unburned fuel flows into the catalyst, the cata-
lyst temperature will be excessively high. To prevent this, follow the
instructions below:
IUse unleaded gasoline only. Leaded gasoline will seriously
damage the three way catalyst.
IWhen checking for ignition spark or measuring engine
compression, make tests quickly and only when necessary.
IDo not run engine when the fuel tank level is low, otherwise the
engine may misfire causing damage to the catalyst.
PRECAUTIONS
Precautions (Cont'd)
GI-6

PRECAUTIONS FOR ENGINE OILSNBGI0001S05Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause
skin cancer. Try to avoid direct skin contact with used oil.
If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner
as soon as possible.
Health Protection PrecautionsNBGI0001S0501IAvoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils, particularly
used engine oils.
IWear protective clothing, including impervious gloves where
practicable.
IDo not put oily rags in pockets.
IAvoid contaminating clothes, particularly underpants, with oil.
IHeavily soiled clothing and oil-impregnated footwear should
not be worn. Overalls must be cleaned regularly.
IFirst Aid treatment should be obtained immediately for open
cuts and wounds.
IUse barrier creams, applying them before each work period, to
help the removal of oil from the skin.
IWash with soap and water to ensure all oil is removed (skin
cleansers and nail brushes will help). Preparations containing
lanolin replace the natural skin oils which have been removed.
IDo not use gasoline, kerosine, diesel fuel, gas oil, thinners or
solvents for cleaning skin.
IIf skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without delay.
IWhere practicable, degrease components prior to handling.
IWhere there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should be
worn, for example, chemical goggles or face shields; in addi-
tion an eye wash facility should be provided.
Environmental Protection PrecautionsNBGI0001S0502Burning used engine oil in small space heaters or boilers can be
recommended only for units of approved design. The heating sys-
tem must meet the requirements of HM Inspectorate of Pollution for
small burners of less than 0.4 MW. If in doubt check with the
appropriate local authority and/or manufacturer of the approved
appliance.
Dispose of used oil and used oil filters through authorized waste
disposal contractors to licensed waste disposal sites, or to the
waste oil reclamation trade. If in doubt, contact the local authority
for advice on disposal facilities.
It is illegal to pour used oil on to the ground, down sewers or drains,
or into water courses.
The regulations concerning pollution vary between regions.
PRECAUTIONS FOR FUELNBGI0001S06Use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of at least 87 AKI
(Anti-Knock Index) number (research octane number 91).
CAUTION:
Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gasoline will dam-
age the three way catalyst.
Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect
the emission control devices and systems, and could also
affect the warranty coverage validity.
PRECAUTIONS FOR AIR CONDITIONINGNBGI0001S07Use an approved refrigerant recovery unit any time the air condi-
tioning system must be discharged. Refer to HA-144, ªHFC-134a
(R-134a) Service Procedureº for specific instructions.

SGI862-A
DETECTABLE LINES AND NON-DETECTABLE LINESNBGI0003S0203In some wiring diagrams, two kinds of lines, representing wires,
with different weight are used.
IA line with regular weight (wider line) represents a ªdetectable
line for DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code)º. A ªdetectable line for
DTCº is a circuit in which ECM (Engine Control Module) can
detect its malfunctions with the on board diagnostic system.
IA line with less weight (thinner line) represents a ªnon-detect-
able line for DTCº. A ªnon-detectable line for DTCº is a circuit
in which ECM cannot detect its malfunctions with the on board
diagnostic system.
