ENGINE MAINTENANCE
Checking Drive BeltsINFOID:0000000004215528
WARNING:
Be sure to perform when the engine is stopped.
1. Remove air duct and resonator assembly when inspecting drive belt.
2. Make sure that indicator (single line notch) of each auto tensioner is within the allowable working range“A” (between three line notches) as shown.
NOTE:
• Check the drive belt auto tensioner indication when the engine is cold.
• The indicator notch is located on the moving side of the drive belt auto tensioner.
3. Visually check entire belt for wear, damage or cracks.
4. If the indicator is out of allowable working range or belt is damaged, replace the belt. Refer to MA-14
.
DRIVE BELT TENSION
There is no manual drive belt tension adjustment. The driv e belt tension is automatically adjusted by the drive
belt auto tensioner.
Changing Engine CoolantINFOID:0000000004215534
WARNING:
• To avoid being scalded, never change the coolant when the engine is hot.
• Wrap a thick cloth around the cap to carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter of a turn
to release any built-up pressure, th en push down and turn the cap all the way to remove it.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Turn ignition switch ON and set temperature control lever all the way to HOT position or the highest tem-
perature position. Wait 10 seconds and turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Remove the engine front undercover using power tool.

COMBINATION METER
• Speedometer, odo/trip meter, tachometer, fuel gauge, engine coolant temperature gauge, engine oil pres-
sure gauge, voltage gauge and information display are controlled by the unified meter control unit, which is
built into the combination meter.
• Warning and indicator lamps are controlled by the unified meter control unit and by components connected directly to the combination meter.
• Digital meter is adopted for odo/trip meter.* *The record of the odometer is kept even if the battery cable is disconnected. The record of the trip meter is
erased when the battery cable is disconnected.
• Odo/trip meter segments can be checked in diagnosis mode.
• Meter/gauge can be checked in diagnosis mode.

CAUTION:
Even when there is no malfunction on CAN communication system, malfunction may be
