WARNING
- Battery
dangers
Always read the following
instructions carefully
when handling a battery.Keep lighted cigarettes and
all other flames or sparks
away from the battery.Hydrogen, which is a
highly combustible gas, is
always present in battery
cells and may explode if ignited.If any electrolyte gets
into your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean
water for at least 15 minutes
and get immediate medical
attention. If possible, continue
to apply water with a sponge or
cloth until medical attention is
received. If electrolyte gets on
your skin, thoroughly wash the
contacted area. If you feel a
pain or a burning sensation, get
medical attention immediately.

BATTERY MAINTENANCEFor best battery service:
• Keep the battery securely mounted.
• Keep the battery top clean and dry.
• Keep the terminals and connections
clean, tight, and coated with
petroleum jelly or terminal grease.
• Immediately rinse any spilled
electrolyte from the battery with a
solution of water and baking soda.
• If the vehicle is not going to be used
for an extended period of time,
disconnect the battery cables.
BATTERY RECHARGINGYour vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
• If the battery becomes discharged in
a short time (headlights or interior
lights were left on while the vehicle
was not in use), recharge it by slow
(trickle) charging for 10 hours.
• If the battery gradually discharges
because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge it
at 20-30A for two hours.

(Continued)
Keep batteries out of the
reach of children
because batteries
contain highly corrosive
SULFURIC ACID. Do not allow
battery acid to contact your skin,
eyes, clothing or paint finish.
Wear eye protection
when charging or
working near a battery.
Always provide ventilation when
working in an enclosed space.
When lifting a plastic-cased
battery, excessive pressure
on the case may cause
battery acid to leak, resulting
in personal injury. Lift with a
battery carrier or with your
hands on opposite corners.
Never attempt to charge the
battery when the battery
cables are connected.
The electrical ignition system
works with high voltage. Never
touch these components with
the engine running or the
ignition switched on.
WARNING - Recharging
Battery
When recharging the battery,
observe the following
precautions:
The battery must be removed
from the vehicle and placed
in an area with good
ventilation.
Do not allow cigarettes,
sparks, or flame near the
battery.

MMSA7024
CAUTION
A wheel that is not the correct size
may adversely affect wheel and
bearing life, braking and stopping
abilities, handling characteristics,
ground clearance, body-to-tire
clearance, snow chain clearance,
speedometer calibration, headlight
aim and bumper height.
WARNING - Halogen
Bulbs

Wear eye protection when
changing a bulb. Allow the
bulb to cool before handling it.
Halogen bulbs contain
pressurized gas. If broken, a
halogen bulb will explode and
will produce flying pieces of
glass.
Always handle halogen bulbs
carefully to avoid scratches
and abrasions. If the bulbs
are lit, avoid contact with
liquids. Never touch the
glass with bare hands.
Residual oil may cause the
bulb to overheat and burst
when lit. A bulb should be
operated only when installed
in the headlight assembly.
If a bulb becomes damaged
or cracked, replace it
immediately and carefully
dispose it.

LUBRICANT
SPECIFICATIONSRECOMMENDED
LUBRICANTSTo help achieve proper engine and
powertrain performance and durability,
use only lubricants of the proper quality.
The correct lubricants also help promote
engine efficiency which results in
improved fuel economy.
Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving
Oil are now available. Along with other
additional benefits, they contribute to
fuel economy by reducing the amount of
fuel necessary to overcome engine
friction. Often, these improvements are
difficult to measure in everyday driving,
but in a year’s time they can offer
significant cost and energy savings.

MAINTENANCE
7-38When choosing an oil, consider the range
of temperature your vehicle will be
operated in before the next oil change.
Then select the recommended oil
viscosity from the chart.EXTERIOR CAREEXTERIOR GENERAL
CAUTIONIt is very important to follow the
manufacturer’s directions when using
any chemical cleaner or polish. Read all
warning and caution statements that
appear on the label.FINISH MAINTENANCE
WASHINGTo help protect your vehicle’s finish from
rust and deterioration, wash it thoroughly
and frequently at least once a month with
special attention to the removal of any
accumulation of salt, dirt, mud, or other
foreign materials. Make sure the drainholes in the lower edges of the doors and
rocker panels are kept clear and clean.
Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,
industrial fallout and similar deposits can
damage your vehicle’s finish if not
removed immediately.
Even prompt washing with plain water
may not completely remove all these
deposits. A mild soap, safe for use on
painted surfaces, can be used.
After washing, rinse the vehicle
thoroughly with lukewarm or cold water.
Do not allow soap to dry on the finish.
WAXINGWax the vehicle when water will no
longer bead on the paint.
Always wash and dry the vehicle before
waxing. Use a good quality liquid or
paste wax, and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. Wax all metal trim as well,
to protect it and to maintain its luster.
Removing oil, tar, and similar materials
with a spot remover will usually strip the
wax from the finish. Be sure to re-wax
these areas even if the rest of the vehicle
does not yet need waxing.
✻
NOTICE
Do not use strong soap, chemical
detergents or hot water, and do not
wash the vehicle in direct sunlight
or when the body of the vehicle is
warm.
CAUTION
After washing the vehicle, test the
brakes while driving slowly to see if
they have been affected by water. If
braking performance is impaired,
dry the brakes by applying them
lightly while maintaining a slow
forward speed.

7-42HEADLIGHT AIMING
ADJUSTMENTBefore performing aiming adjustment,
make sure of the following.
1. Keep all tires inflated to the correct
pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and
press the front bumper & rear
bumper down several times.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded
(except for full levels of coolant,
engine oil and fuel, and spare tire, jack,
and tools). Have the driver sit in the
driver’s seat or use equivalent weight.4. Clean the headlight lenses and turn
on the headlight (Low beam).
5. Open the hood.
6. Draw a vertical line (through the
center of each headlight) and the
horizontal line (through the center of
each headlight) on the aiming screen.
1) Horizontal line dimension from
ground: 628 mm (24.72 in)
2) Distance between each vertical
line : 1,306 mm (49.17 in)
And then, draw a parallel line at 30
mm (1.18 in) place under the
horizontal line.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low
beam to the parallel line with a
Phillips screwdriver.
ADJUSTMENT AFTER
HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY
REPLACEMENTIf the vehicle has had front body repair
and the headlight assembly has been
replaced, the headlight aiming should be
checked using the aiming screen as
shown in the illustration. Turn on the
headlight switch. (Low Beam Position)
1. Adjust headlights so that main axis of
light is parallel to center line of the
body and is aligned with point “P”
shown in the illustration.
