1.Remove the  engine  cover.
2. Remove air cleaner assembly.
3. Remove the  surge tank.
4. Remove the  cylinder head cover.
(1) Disconnect  the  ignition  coil connector  and remove the  ignition  coil.
(2) Remove the  cylinder head cover.
5.Set the  piston of the  No.1 cylinder to TDC(Top Dead  Center) position.
(1) Turn the  crankshaft pulley clockwise and align its groove with  the  timing mark "T"  of the  timing chain  cover.
(2) Check that the  timing marks of the  camshaft sprocket  are in  straight line  on that of the  cylinder head cover
surface as shwn in  the  illustration.  It  makes  the  piston of the  No.1 cylinder position at TDC.
If  not, turn the  crankshaft one revolution clockwise.
6. Inspect the  intake and the  exhaust valve clearance.
(1) With the  piston of the  No.1 cylinder positioning  at TDC,  the  valves which  can be measured its clearance are as
shown below.
Measurement method.
a. Using  a  thickness  gauge, measure the  clearance between  the  tappet  and the  base  circle  of camshaft.
b. Record the  out - of- specification valve clearance measurements. They will  be used  later  to determine the
required adjusting  tappet  for  replacement.

6.Remove the  auto  tensioner set- pin.
7. Check the  tension of the  timing belt.
(1) Turn the  crankshaft 2  rev. clockwise which  makes  the  No.1 cylinder piston position at TDC.
After 5minutes, measure the  length of the  projected rod.
Specification
5  ~ 7mm(0.1969 ~ 0.2756in.)
(2)Ensure  the  locations  of the  timing marks for  each  sprocket.
8. Install the  engine  support bracket(A).
Tightening torque
58.8  ~ 68.6Nm(6.0 ~ 7.0kgf.m, 43.4  ~ 50.6lb- ft)
9.Install the  timing belt lower  cover(A).

Tightening torque
66.7~78.5Nm(6.8~8.0kgf.m, 49.2~57.9lb - ft)
After tightening the  CVVT bolts,  rotate  the  CVVT assembly housing counterclockwise by hand to seat the  lock
pin in  the  CVVT assembly in  good position.
Fix  the  hexagonal part of the  camshaft in  a  vice  when  tightening the  CVVT bolts.  Do not  fix the  CVVT housing
or sprocket  in  a  vice.
4. Install the  camshaft in  the  cylinder head assembly.
(1) Align the  timing mark of the  camshaft timinig chain.
LH camshaft chain timing mark
RH  camshaft chain timing mark
Both timing marks should  face upward in  reassemby.
5. Install the  timing chain  tensioner.
(1) Insert the  set pin by pressing  the  timing chain  tensioner.
(2) Install the  chain  tensioner(A) in  the  cylinder head assembly.

ItemDescription
A Positive camber angle
B True vertical
When the  wheel tilts out  at the  top, then  the  camber is positive  (+).
When the  wheel tilts in  at the  top, then  the  camber is negative(- ).
Standard value  : 0° ±  30´
Difference  between  right  and left angle is within  0° 30´
Camber  is pre- set at the  factory  and doesn't need to be adjusted. If  the  camber is not  within  the  standard value,
replace the  bent  or damaged  parts.
[REAR]
Standard value  : - 6´ ±  30´
Difference  between  right  and left angle is within  0° 30´
Adjust  the  camber by turning the  cambolt of the  rear  upper  arm.
Left cambolt : Clockwise  → camber(- )
Right cambolt : Clockwise  →camber(+)
The variation  of camber by a  rotation of the  cambolt :
About 0°8´35´´
CASTER
Caster  is the  tilting of the  strut  axis  either forward or backward from vertical. A backward tilt is positive  (+)  and a
forward tilt is negative  ( - ).
Caster  is pre- set at the  factory  and doesn't need to be adjusted. If  the  caster is not  within  the  standard value, replace
the  bent  or damaged  parts.

2.Remove ignition  key  from the  vehicle.
3. Connect the  clock spring harness  connetor and horn  harness  connector  to the  clock spring.
4. Set the  clock spring on neutral position and after  turning the  front  wheels to the  straight- ahead  position, install  the
clock spring.
5. Install the  steering  wheel column cover and the  steering  wheel. (Refer  to ST group)
6. Connect the  Driver Airbag (DAB) module connector  and horn  connector, then  install  the  Driver Airbag (DAB)
module on the  steering  wheel.
7. Secure  the  Driver Airbag (DAB) with  the  new mounting bolts.
Tightening Torque  (DAB  Mounting Bolt)
: 0.8  ~ 1.1  kgf.m (7.9 ~ 10.8  Nm, 5.8  ~ 8.0  lb.ft)
8.Connect the  battery negative  cable.
9. After installing the  airbag, confirm proper system  operation:
a. Turn the  ignition  switch  ON;  the  SRS indicator  light should  be turned on for  about six seconds and then  go off.
b. Make sure  horn  button  works.
INSPECTION
Driver Airbag (DAB)
If  any improper  parts are found during  the  following inspection,  replace the  airbag  module with  a  new one.
Never attempt to measure the  circuit resistance  of the  airbag  module (squib) even  if you are using  the  specified
tester.  If  the  circuit resistance  is measured with  a  tester,  accidental airbag  deployment  will  result in  serious
personal injury.
1. Check pad cover for  dents, cracks or deformities.
2. Check the  airbag  module for  denting,  cracking or deformation.
3. Check hooks and connectors for  damage, terminals for  deformities,  and harness  for  binds.
