PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERWCEMOOOAAOSERVICING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
1. Note the following before proceeding with work on the
electrical system.
Note that the following must never be done:
Unauthorized modifications of any electrical device or
wiring, because such modifications might lead to a vehicle
malfunction, over-capacity or short-circuit that could result
in a fire in the vehicle.
2. When servicing the electrical system, disconnect the
negative cable terminal from the battery.
Caution1. Before connecting or disconnecting the negative
cable, be sure to turn off the ignition switch and the
lighting switch.(If this is not done, there is the possibility of
semiconductor parts being damaged.)
2. After completion of the work steps [when the
battery’s negative (-) terminal is connected], warm
up the engine and allow it to idle for approximately
five minutes under the conditions described below,in order to stabilize the engine control conditions,
and then check to be sure that the idling is
satisfactory.
Engine coolant temperature: 80 - 95°C (176 - 203°F)
Lights, electric fans, accessories: OFF
Transaxle: neutral position(A/T models: “N” or “P”)
Steering wheel: neutral (center) position
VEHICLE WASHING
If high-pressure car-washing equipment or steam car-washing
equipment is used to wash the vehicle, be sure to maintain the

Caution
\‘i
d
This vehicle cannot be towed by a wrecker using sling-typeequipment to prevent the bumper from deformation.
If this vehicle is towed, use wheel lift or flat bed equip-
ment.The vehicle may be towed on its rear wheels for extended
distances provided the parking brake is released. It is recom-
mended that vehicles be towed using the front pickup
whenever possible.
REAR TOWING PICKUP
Caution
This vehicle cannot be towed by a wrecker using sling-typeequipment to prevent the bumper from deformation.
If this vehicle is towed, use wheel lift or flat bed equip-
\
ment.‘L*3Manual transaxle vehicles may be towed on the front wheels,
provided the transaxle is in neutral and the drive-line has not
been damaged. The steering wheel must be clamped in the
straight-ahead position with a steering wheel clamping device
designed for towing service use.
CautionDo not use steering column lock to secure front wheel
position for towing.
Automatic transaxle vehicle may be towed on the front wheels
at speeds not to exceed 50 km/h (30 mph) for a distances not to
exceed 30 km (18 miles).
CautionIf these limits cannot be met, the front wheels must be
placed on a tow dolly.
TOWING WHEN KEYS ARE NOT AVAILABLE

SAFETY PRECAUTIONSThe following precautions should be taken when towing the
vehicle.
1.DO NOT LIFT OR TOW THE VEHICLE BY ATTACHING TO
OR WRAPPING AROUND THE BUMPER.
2. Any loose or protruding parts of damaged vehicle such as
hoods, doors, fenders, trim, etc., should be secured prior to
moving the vehicle.
3.Operator should refrain from going under a vehicle while it
is lifted by the towing equipment, unless the vehicle is
adequately supported by safety stands.
4. Never allow passengers to ride in a towed vehicle.
5. State and local rules and regulations must be followed
when towing a vehicle.
Caution1. If only the front wheels or only the rear wheels are
lifted for towing, the bumper will be damaged.
In addition, lifting of the rear wheels causes the oil to
flow forward, and may result in heat damage to the
rear bushing of the transfer, and so should never be
done.
2.The vehicle must not be towed by placing only its frontwheels or only the rear wheels on a rolling dolly,
because to do so will result in deterioration of the
viscous coupling and result in the viscous coupling
causing the vehicle to jump forward suddenly.
3. If this vehicle is towed, use flat bed equipment.

CautionThe rear wheels should remain on the ground.
3.If the brake dragging force exceeds the specified value, jack
up the vehicle and manually rotate each wheel to check the
rotation condition of each wheel.
NOTEIf the brake dragging force exceeds the specified value, the
cause may be the effect of the viscous coupling’s dragging
force, so jack up the front wheels and check the rotation
condition of the wheels in this state for no effect by the
viscous coupling’s dragging force.
REAR WHEEL MEASUREMENTSAfter placing the rear wheels on the brake tester, follow the
same procedures as for the front wheel measurements.
