ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
1. Before removing MFI/SFI wiring connectors, termi±
nals, etc., first disconnect the power by either turning
the ignition switch OFF or disconnecting the battery
terminals.
HINT: Always check the diagnostic trouble code
before disconnecting the negative (±) terminal cable
from the battery.
2. When installing the battery, be especially careful not
to incorrectly connect the positive (+) and negative
(±) cables.
3. Do not permit parts to receive a severe impact during
removal or installation. Handle all MFI/SFI parts care±
fully, especially the ECM.
4. Do not be careless during troubleshooting as there are
numerous transistor circuits and even slight terminal
contact can further troubles.
5. Do not open the ECM cover.
6. When inspecting during rainy weather, take care to
prevent entry of water. Also, when washing the
engine compartment, prevent water from getting on
the MFI/SFI parts and wiring connectors.
7. Parts should be replaced as an assembly.
AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
1. Separation of the engine oil dipstick, oil filler cap, PCV
hose, etc. may cause the engine to run out of tune.
2. Disconnection, looseness or cracks in the parts of the
air induction system between the throttle body and
cylinder head will allow air suction and cause the
engine to run out of tune.
IF VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH MOBILE
RADIO SYSTEM (HAM, CB, ETC.)
If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communica±
tion system, refer to the precaution in the IN section.

 WIRELESS DOOR LOCK REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM
A wireless door lock remote control system is available as an option on the LE grade model and is standard
equipment on the XLE grade model. With the wireless door lock remote control system, all the doors can be locked
and unlocked by signals emitted by the transmitter.
A 2±step unlock function is provided. When the unlock switch of the transmitter is pressed once, only the driver's
door is unlocked. When it is pressed twice, all the doors are unlocked.
A panic switch is provided in the transmitter to force the theft system by operating the horn, headlight and taillight.
A wireless door lock ECU with EEPROM (Electrical Erasable Programmable ROM) is used so that the transmitter
recognition code can be easily reprogrammed.
 THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM
A theft deterrent system is used to prevent vehicle theft. When the system is set, the horn and headlights operate
if the door, hood or trunk is forcibly opened.
The audio system also has an anti±theft system whereby the radio and cassette deck is disabled if the radio body
is stolen from the vehicle.
