Precautions for Battery ServiceNCS00001
Before disconnecting the battery, lower both the driver and passenger windows. This will prevent any interfer-
ence between the window edge and the vehicle when the door is opened/closed. During normal operation, the
window slightly raises and lowers automatically to prevent any window to vehicle interference. The automatic
window function will not work with the battery disconnected.
Service Notice or PrecautionsNCS00002

Recommended clutch fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”. Refer to MA-11, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND
LUBRICANTS" .

Never reuse drained clutch fluid.

Be careful not to splash clutch fluid on painted areas.

When removing clutch tube, use a flare nut wrench.

When installing clutch tube, use a flare nut torque wrench.

Use new clutch fluid to clean or wash all parts of master cylinder.

Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. It will ruin
the rubber parts of the hydraulic system.

replace CSC (Concentric Slave Cylinder) body and CSC tube.
Return CSC body insert to original position to remove transmis-
sion assembly. Dust on clutch disc sliding parts may damage

Do not disassemble CSC body.
