ANTI±LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (A.B.S.)
Description
wThe A.B.S. is a brake system which controls the wheel cylinder hydraulic pressure of all four wheels during
sudden braking and braking on slippery road surfaces, preventing the wheels from locking. This A.B.S.
provides the following benefits:
(1) Enables steering round an obstacle with a greater degree of certainty even when panic braking.
(2) Enables stopping in a panic brake while keeping the effect upon stability and steerability to a mini-
mum, even on curves.
wThe function of the A.B.S. is to help maintain directional stability and vehicle steerability on most road
conditions. However, the system cannot prevent the vehicle from skidding if the cornering speed limit is
exceeded.
wThe A.B.S. has a longitudinal deceleration sensor to match braking characteristics to the full±time four±
wheel drive. (For 4WD)
wIn case a malfunction occurs, a diagnosis function and fail±safe system have been adopted for the A.B.S.
to increase serviceability.

FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
1. MAKE FOLLOWING CHECKS AND CORRECT ANY
PROBLEMS
(a) Check the tires for wear, size and proper inflation.
Cold tire inflation pressure:
FWD/SV21 and 4WD 2.1 kg±cm2 (30 psi, 206 kPa)
FWD/VZV21 2.2 kg±cm2 (31 psi, 216 kPa)
(b) Check the front wheel bearings for looseness.
(c) Check the wheel runout.
Lateral runout: Less than 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
(d) Check the front suspension for looseness.
(e) Check the steering linkage for looseness.
(f) Check that the front shock absorber function properly
by using the standard bounce test.
If the clearance of the vehicle is not standard, try
to level by locking it down. If still not correct, check
for bad springs or suspension parts.
HINT: Before inspecting wheel alignment, adjust
chassis ground clearance to specification.
3. INSTALL WHEEL ALIGNMENT EQUIPMENT
Follow the specific instructions of the equipment
manufacturer. 2. MEASURE CHASSIS GROUND CLEARANCE

If steering angles differ from the standard specifi-
cations, check to see if the lengths of the left and
right tie rods are the same.
HINT: If the tie rod lengths are not equal, the steer-
ing angle cannot be adjusted properly.
If the tie rod lengths were changed to adjust the
wheel angle, reinspect the toe±in.
HINT: Camber is not adjustable, if measurement is not
within specification, inspect and replace the suspen-
sion parts.
6. CHECK STEERING AXIS INCLINATION
Steering axis inclination:
Steering axis inclination is not adjustable,if measure-
ment is not within specification, inspect and replace
the suspension parts.
7. CHECK CASTER
Caster:
If caster is not within specification, adjust by in-
creasing or decreasing the spacers. (See page
