• The captions WARNING and CAUTION warn you of steps that must be followed to prevent personal injury
and/or damage to some part of the vehicle.
WARNING indicates the possibility of personal injury if instructions are not followed.
CAUTION indicates the possibility of component damage if instructions are not followed.
BOLD TYPED STATEMENTS except WARNING and CAUTION give you helpful information.
Standard value: Tolerance at inspection and adjustment.
Limit value: The maximum or minimum limit val ue that should not be exceeded at inspection and adjust-
ment.
UnitsINFOID:0000000009462969
• The UNITS given in this manual are primarily expressed as the SI UNIT (International System of Unit), and
alternatively expressed in the metric system and in the yard/pound system.
Also with regard to tightening torque of bolts and nuts, there are descriptions both about range and about the
standard tightening torque.

TIGHTENING TORQUE OF STANDARD BOLTS
TIGHTENING TORQUE OF STANDARD BOLTS
DescriptionINFOID:0000000009462980
This vehicle has both new standard based on ISO* and previous standard bolts/nuts. There are some differ-
ences between these two types of bolts/ nuts; shape of the head, grade of strength, hexagonal width across
flats and the standard tightening torque.
• For guidance in discriminating, refer to GI-18, "Tightening Torque Table (New Standard Included)"
.
• If the tightening torque is not described in the description or figure, refer to GI-18, "Tightening Torque Table
(New Standard Included)".
*ISO: International Organization for Standardization
Tightening Torque Tabl e (New Standard Included)INFOID:0000000009462981
CAUTION:
• The special parts are excluded.
• The bolts/nuts in these tables have a strength (d iscrimination) number/symbol assigned to the head
or the like. As to the relation between the stre ngth grade in these tables and the strength (discrimi-
nation) number/symbol, refer to “DISCRIMINATION OF BOLTS AND NUTS”.
