VEHICLE LIFTING PROCEDURES
To raise the vehicle, place the lifting equipment only at the
points indicated. Failure to use these precise positions
may result in permanent vehicle body deformation.
Many dealer service facilities and service stations are
equipped with automative hoists that bear upon some parts
of the frame in order to lift the vehicle. If any other hoist
method is used, take special care to avoid damaging the
fuel tank, the filter neck, the exhaust system, or the
underbody.

2. Safety jack and safety stand
If lift up the vehicle with safety jack and stand, should be more
careful during works.
Warning
•
Never be under the vehicle if supported with only jack.
If have to be under the vehicle, be sure to use safety
block.
•
Use wheel block in front and rear of every wheel.
Lifting Positions
1. 4-post lift
As illustrated, position the vehicle on the 4-post lift securely and block the front and rear of each tire not to move during
working.
Notice
During lifting, be sure to check whether vehicle is empty.
•
Board-on lift connection device installed in front of vehicle should be positioned in front of sill locating
under the front door.
•
Install lift connecting device on the edge of front and rear of board-on lift.
Warning
•
Be sure to use attachment during lifting to prevent the lift from contacting with body floor.
•
While lifting the vehicle, widen the lift floor as far as possible to stabilize between vehicle front and rear. When
fixing the lift floor, be careful not to contact with brake tube and fuel lines.

WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE
Horn Operation
Blow the horn occasionally to make sure it works. Check
all the button locations.
Brake System Operation
Be alert for abnormal sounds, increased brake pedal travel
or repeated puling to one side when braking. Also, if the
brake warning light goes on, or flashes, something may
be wrong with part of the brake system.
Exhaust System Operation
Be alert to any changes in the sound of the system or the
smell of the fumes. These are signs that the system may
be leaking or overheating. Have the system in-spected and
repaired immediately.
Tires, Wheels and Alignment Operation
Be alert to any vibration of the steering wheel or the seats
at normal highway speeds. This may mean a wheel needs
to be balanced. Also, a pull right or left on a straight, level
road may show the need for a tire pressure adjustment or
a wheel alignment.
Steering System Operation
Be alert to changes in the steering action. An inspection
is needed when the steering wheel is hard to turn or has
too much free play, or is unusual sounds are noticed when
turning or parking.
Headlamp Aim
Take note of the light pattern occasionally. Adjust the head-
lights if the beams seem improperly aimed.
AT EACH FUEL FILL
A fluid loss in any (except windshield washer) system may
indicate a problem. Have the system inspected and re-
paired immediately.
Engine Oil Level
Check the oil level and add oil if necessary. The best time
to check the engine oil level is when the oil is warm.
1. After stopping the engine, wait a few minutes for the
oil to drain back to the oil pan.
2. Pull out the oil level indicator (dip stick).
3. Wipe it clean, and push the oil level indicator back
down all the way.
4. Pull out the oil level indicator and look at the oil level
on it.
5. Add oil, if needed, to keep the oil level above the
lower mark. Avoid overfilling the engine, since this
may cause engine damage.
6. Push the indicator all the way back down into the
engine after taking the reading.
If you check the oil level when the oil is cold, do not run
the engine first. The cold oil will not drain back to the pan
fast enough to give a true oil level reading.
Engine Coolant Level and Condition
Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir tank and
add coolant if necessary. Inspect the coolant. Replace
dirty or rusty coolant.
Windshield Washer Fluid Level
Check the washer fluid level in the reservoir. Add fluid if
necessary.
AT LEAST TWICE A MONTH
Tire And Wheel Inspection and Pressure Check
Check the tire for abnormal wear or damage. Also check
for damaged wheels. Check the tire pressure when the
tires are cold (check the spare also, unless it is a stow-
away).
Maintain the recommended pressures. Refer to “Wheels
and Tire” is in section 4H.
AT LEAST MONTHLY
Lamp Operation
Check the operation of the license plate lamp, the head-
lamps (including the high beams), the parking lamps, the
fog lamps, the taillamp, the brake lamps, the turn signals,
the backup lamps and the hazard warning flasher.
Fluid Leak Check
Periodically inspect the surface beneath the vehicle for
water, oil, fuel or other fluids, after the vehicle has been
parked for a while. Water dripping from the air conditioning
system after use is normal. If you notice fuel leaks or
fumes, find the cause and correct it at once.

AT LEAST TWICE A YEAR
Power Steering System Reservoir Level
Check the power steering fluid level. Keep the power steering
fluid at the proper level. Refer to Section 4G, Power Steering
System.
Brake Master Cylinder Reservoir Level
Check the fluid and keep it at the proper level. A low fluid level
can indicate worn disc brake pads which may need to be
serviced. Check the breather hole in the reservoir cover to be
free from dirt and check for an open passage.
Weather-Strip Lubrication
Apply a thin film silicone grease using a clean cloth.
EACH TIME THE OIL IS CHANGED
Brake System Inspection
This inspection should be done when the wheels are removed
for rotation. Inspect the lines and the hoses for proper hookup,
binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect the disc brake
pads for wear. Inspect the rotors for surface condition. Inspect
other brake parts, the parking brake, etc., at the same time.
Inspect the brakes more often if habit or conditions result in
frequent braking.
Steering, Suspension and Front Drive Axle Boot
And Seal Inspection
Inspect the front and rear suspension and the steering sys-
tem for damaged, loose or missing parts, signs of wear or
lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering line and the
hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc.
Clean and inspect the drive axle boot and seals for damage,
tears or leakage. Replace the seals if necessary.
Exhaust System Inspection
Inspect the complete system (including the catalytic converter
if equipped). Inspect the body near the exhaust system. Look
for broken, damaged, missing, or out-of-position parts as well
as open seams, holes, loose connections, or other conditions
which could cause heat buildup in the floor pan or could let
exhaust fumes seep into the trunk or passenger compartment.
Drain the Water from Fuel Filter
When the water level inside water separator in fuel filter ex-
ceeds a certain level, water separator warning light comes on
and buzzer sounds. Also, the driving force of the vehicle
decreases.
If these conditions occur, immediately drain the water from
fuel filter & water separator.
Hood Latch Operation
When opening the hood, note the operation of the sec-
ondary latch. It should keep the hood from opening all
the way when the primary latch is released. The hood
must close firmly.
AT LEAST ANNUALLY
Lap and Shoulder Belts Condition and
Operation
Inspect the belt system including: the webbing, the
buckles, the latch plates, the retractor, the guide loops
and the anchors.
Movable Head Restraint Operation
On vehicles with movable head restraints, the restraints
must stay in the desired position.
Spare Tire and Jack Storage
Be alert to rattles in the rear of the vehicle. The spare
tire, all the jacking equipment, and the tools must be
securely stowed at all times. Oil the jack ratchet or
the screw mechanism after each use.
Key Lock Service
Lubricate the key lock cylinder.
Body Lubrication Service
Lubricate all the body door hinges including the hood,
the fuel door, the rear compartment hinges and the
latches, the glove box and the console doors, and any
folding seat hardware.
Underbody Flushing
Flushing the underbody will remove any corrosive ma-
terials used for ice and snow removal and dust control.
At least every spring clean the underbody. First, loosen
the sediment packed in closed areas of the vehicle.
Then flush the underbody with plain water.
Engine Cooling System
Inspect the coolant and freeze protection fluid. If the
fluid is dirty or rusty, drain, flush and refill the engine
cooling system with new coolant. Keep the coolant at
the proper mixture in order to ensure proper freeze
protection, corrosion protection and engine operating
temperature. Inspect the hoses. Replace the cracked,
swollen, or deteriorated hoses. Tighten the clamps.
Clean the outside of the radiator and the air condition-
ing condenser. Wash the filler cap and the neck. Pres-
sure test the cooling system and the cap in order to
help ensure proper operation.
