PRECAUTIONS

3. Check that the charge status indicator lamp does not blink and wait for 5 minutes or more.

NOTE:

 If the battery is removed within 5 minutes after the power switch is turned OFF, plural DTCs may be

detected.

4. Remove 12V battery within 1 hour after turning the power switch OFF 

→ ON → OFF.

NOTE:

•  The 12V battery automatic charge control may start automatically even when the power switch is in

OFF state.

•  Once the power switch is turned ON 

→ OFF, the 12V battery automatic charge control does not start for

approximately 1 hour.

CAUTION:

•  After all doors (including back door) are closed, if a door (including back door) is opened before

battery terminals are disconnected, start over from Step 1.

•  After turning the power switch OFF, if “Remote A/C” is activated by user operation, stop the air

conditioner and start over from Step 1.

Precautions for Suspension

INFOID:0000000010119423

• When installing rubber bushings, the final tightening must be carried out under unladen conditions with tires

on ground. Spilled oil might shorten the life of rubber bushings. Be sure to wipe off any spilled oil.

- Unladen conditions mean that fluids and lubricants are full. Tire repair kit and mats are in designated posi-

tions.

• After servicing suspension parts, be sure to check wheel alignment.

• Self-lock nuts are not reusable. Always use new ones when installing. Since new self-lock nuts are pre-oiled,

tighten as they are. 

• The tightening surface must be kept free from oil/grease.

• When jacking up the vehicle with a floor jack, never hang the jack on the torque rod.
