PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE

PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE


1. If there is a likelihood of damaging or smearing
painted parts or interior parts during service opera-
tion, it is necessary to protect them with suitable cov-
ers (such as seat covers, etc.).

2. Service operations should be performed on a level


ground whenever possible and make sure that the
wheels are blocked.

3. When the vehicles is raised on a jack, use a rigid Jack-up point


rack for the sake of safety.

4. Use special tools for disassembly and reassembly


operations.

5. Bolts and nuts should be tightened to specified


torques.

6. When no standard torque is specified, bolts and nuts


should be tightened in accordance with the TIGHT-
ENING TORQUES FOR GENERAL USE BOLTS
AND NUTS.

7. When disassembling an assembly comprising many


parts, similar parts, or those parts which are identical
for the right and left sides, place them separately so
that they will not become mixed with other parts at
the time of reassembly.

8. Before cleaning parts to be removed or disassem-


bled, carefully check the parts for oil leakage, etc.

PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE

9. If oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, split pins, etc.


are disassembled, they should be replaced at the
time of reassembly.

10.Always use only MITSUBISHI FUSO genuine parts


as replacements both to ensure safety and to obtain
maximum performance from your vehicle.
MITSUBISHI FUSO genuine parts are identical to
the parts used during the production of your vehi-
cle. All parts undergo the most stringent quality con- Y03339
trol and their quality is guaranteed by MITSUBISHI

PERIODIC INSPECTION SCHEDULE

PERIODIC INSPECTION SCHEDULE


• In the periodic inspection schedule table that follows, the intervals at which inspection and servicing should be
performed at specified distance traveled (odometer reading) and period of use (months). The table also indicates
the parts requiring regular replacement and their replacement periodicity.

• Perform periodic inspections according to the tabled schedule.


• Perform each item of inspection or replacement depending on either the odometer reading or operating period
(months), whichever occurs first.
• When 120,000 km are reached, repeat the same inspection cycle.

CAUTION
• If the vehicle is operated frequently under strenuous conditions (unpaved roads, coastal areas, deserts,
hilly or mountainous areas, cold areas, etc.), the intervals between inspections should be shortened
accordingly. Items for which shorter inspection and replacement intervals are particularly necessary are
shown in the periodic inspection schedule table.
• Periodic inspection of rubber hoses (for brake system, fuel system, etc.) is quite important.
Because they decay, swell, chafe, and crack over time, it is necessary that they be inspected by techni-
cians regularly according to the periodic inspection schedule table and be replaced at regular intervals.
Hoses which are broken or have deteriorated must be replaced.

: 1st maintenance at 2,000 km.


I: Inspect, and correct or replace as necessary.
R: Replace or change.

1. ENGINE OIL

Always use prescribed engine oil of proper viscosity


since engine oil has such a large impact on engine
performance, service life and start-up.

Every
Normal 20,000 km or
use every
ACEA-C2 12 months*1
Severe Every
Replacement use*2 10,000 km
intervals Every
API CJ-4, Normal 13,500 km or
JASO DH-2, use every 12
ACEA E6, months*1
ACEA E9 Severe Every
use*2 10,000 km

*1: The engine oil must be replaced depending on


either the odometer reading or operating period
(months), whichever occurs first.
*2: If you drive your vehicle under any of the fol-
lowing conditions (severe conditions).
• Operating in slow vehicle speed (lower than
20 km/h in average and more than 30% of
total operation) or operations involving fre-
quent starts and stops.
• Operations involving frequent engine starts
and stops condition in 10 minutes and in 10
km distance.
• Operating on long distance (10,000 km/
month or more).
• Operating on frequent mountainous roads
(more than 30% in total operation).
• Operating on frequent uphill roads trip (more
than 30% in total operation).
• Operating an engine with idling speed in a
long time (When the rate of idling speed time
per a day is 50% or more).
• Operating in a long time (500 hours/month or
more).

CAUTION
• If the warning and (amber) warning are
displayed alternately, the oil quality has
decreased. Replace the engine oil immedi-
ately. If the oil which quality has decreased is
used even after the warning, the engine may
suffer various problems, including uncon-
trolled revving of the engine in an extreme
case.
• Use only the specified engine oil. Any other
oils may contain substances that cause the
ceramic filter inside the DPF to be loaded with
particulate matter (PM) prematurely to the
capacity and thus shorten the effectively
functioning period of the DPF.

3-4
ENGINE

• Change the engine oil at the specified inter-


vals. During the regeneration process of the
DPF, part of the fuel may mix into the engine
oil while the PM is being removed by burning.
If the engine oil is not changed at the speci-
fied intervals, it may excessively deteriorate
due to mixing of fuel and could cause engine
failure. In the worst case, the engine could
spontaneously run at an abnormally high
speed.

(7) Close the oil filler cap, wait for more than 5 min-
utes and check the oil level. If the oil is not
within the replenishing level range indicated in
the figure, add or remove oil to adjust the level.
(8) Crank the engine in accordance with the
engine starting procedure shown on the
Owner’s Handbook.
(9) Start the engine and warm it up until the water
temperature gauge moves to the center.
(10) Stop the engine and wait for more than 15 min- Z25880
utes before checking the oil level again. If the
(above notch): HIGH (for refilling)
oil is not within the replenishing level range (below notch): LOW
indicated in the figure, add or remove oil to
adjust the level, and return to step 9 to inspect
the oil level again.
(11) Check that there are no oil leaks from the drain
plug.
(12) Reset the engine control unit. See next
“RESETTING THE ENGINE CONTROL UNIT”
for the method.

CAUTION
• Do not add oil so that it exceeds HIGH (above
notch) on the oil level gauge. Doing so will
cause wasteful oil consumption, and cause
the oil level gauge to exceed FULL (for
inspection) ( symbol) quicker than usual.
• If the engine is frequently run at high speeds
or under heavy loads, the engine oil will dete-
riorate quickly and must be replaced sooner
than specified.
• When adding engine oil, take care not to spill
it. If oil is spilled on a belt, the belt will slip on
pulleys.

WARNING
Take care not to spill engine oil as engine oil
on the exhaust manifold, the starter or other

Replacement intervals Every 24 months

CAUTION
• Continuing to use the coolant after the speci-
fied replacement period could damage the
engine and cooling system components due
to rusting and other problems. Replace the
coolant at the specified replacement period
intervals.
• Use the specified long life coolant. Using any
coolant other than the specified long life cool-
ant could cause corrosion and damage to the
cooling systems.
• When replacing or adding coolant, use the
same brand of long life coolant as that
already in the system. Never mix a different
coolant of antifreeze or anti-corrosion addi-
tives since these can detract from its perfor-
mance. If you use other brands or types
coolant, be sure to thoroughly flush the cool-
ing system.
• Do not use methanol-based or methoxypro-
panol- based antifreeze products. They can
severely damage the engine.
• Adding only soft water reduces the concen-
tration of the coolant already in the system,
resulting in less protection against freezing
and corrosion. Additional coolant should
always contain the correct proportions of the
additive and soft water.

3-20
ENGINE

WATER USED WITH COOLANT


Use soft water with any of the following properties
as coolant. Hard water from well or river, for
instance, will cause scale and rust. Do not use such
water.
Total hardness 300 ppm or less
Sulfate SO4 –
100 ppm or less

Chloride CI 100 ppm or less
Total dissolved solids 500 ppm or less

TION OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
• THE LONGLIFE COOLANT IS INFLAMMA-
BLE. BE CAREFUL TO NEVER EXPOSE IT
TO FIRE.
• WHEN HANDLING LONGLIFE COOLANT,
WEAR AN ORGANIC GAS MASK, PROTEC-
TION GOGGLES, OIL-RESISTANT GLOVES,
AND/OR PROTECTIVE APRON AS NECES-
SARY.

CAUTION
Longlife coolant is used in the range of 30% to
60%. At normal temperature, the rate is about
30%. At lower than 30% the coolant’s rust inhibi-
tion effect diminishes and at more than 60%, its
antifreeze action drops.

REPLACEMENT
Be sure to flush the cooling system when replacing
the coolant.

WARNING
• Do not replace the coolant immediately
after operating the vehicle since the
engine, radiator, coolant, and other items
will be extremely hot. If you try to drain the
coolant immediately after driving the vehi-
cle, you may be scalded. Give the coolant
time to cool before starting the job.
• Never remove the pressure cap while the
coolant is still hot. Carelessly removing it
is dangerous since boiling coolant and hot
steam will gush out and could scald you.
Only after the coolant has cooled down
sufficiently, remove the pressure cap by
gripping it in a folded piece of thick cloth
and opening it slowly.
• Tighten the pressure cap before operating
the engine. If the engine speed is increased
with the pressure cap left open, steam and
boiling coolant will overflow from the pres-
sure cap opening as its temperature rises.

(1) Place a can under the radiator drain cock to


receive the coolant.
(2) Open the reservoir tank lid and remove the cap
from the reservoir tank.
(3) Open the engine inspection lid (pressure cap
section).

(4) Release the lock and remove the pressure cap


of the surge tank by turning it counterclock-
wise.

(7) Flush the cooling system.


Pour soft water (preferably after heating mod-
erately) through the pressure cap opening.
Refit the pressure cap tightly by turning it clock-
wise. Lower the cab.
Warm up the engine until the coolant tempera-
ture gauge needle moves to the middle of the
gauge (coolant temperature is 81°C or higher).
Depress the accelerator pedal and run the
engine slightly faster than the ordinary idling
speed.
Stop the engine after 10 minutes and then drain
out the engine coolant. Take great care as the
coolant is very hot.
Repeat the above procedure until the water is
free of dirt.

CAUTION
If the radiator tubing is clogged or coolant is
more contaminated than usual, have the vehicle
inspected.

(8) Make sure the radiator drain cock is securely


fitted.

(9) Pour coolant up to the top of the pressure cap


opening. Pour the coolant slowly to prevent air
from mixing with it.

U04802
(10) Check that the coolant level in the pressure cap
opening does not go down, then fit the pres-
sure cap (turn it clockwise until it is tight).

CAUTION
If air is not completely removed from the cool-
ing system, this may lead to reduced cooling
efficiency and engine parts failure. After replac-
ing the coolant, drive the vehicle and then check
the coolant level.

3-24
ENGINE

(11) Fill the reservoir tank with the coolant to the


“FULL” line, then replace the cap.
(12) Keep the engine running at a speed slightly
higher than the specified idling speed to expel
air from the cooling system. Depress the accel-
erator pedal and run the engine slightly faster
than the ordinary idling speed. Press the rear
manual heater button to operate the rear
heater manually <Vehicles with rear heater>.
When the coolant temperature gauge needle U04799
approaches to the middle of the gauge, allow
the engine to idle for 10 more minutes then
stop it.
(13) When the engine has cooled, open the pres-
sure cap and, if the coolant level is too low, add
coolant until it reaches the top of the pressure
cap opening.
(14) Screw the pressure cap down tightly by turning
it clockwise and lock it.
Note: Be sure to screw the pressure cap tightly.
Otherwise, boiling water and steam under
high pressure will gush out if the engine over-
heats.
(15) Run the engine a few more minutes to make
sure that there are no coolant leaks.
(16) Make sure that the coolant level in the reservoir
tank is in the specified range. Add coolant if
necessary.

CLEANING THE RADIATOR CORE AND


INTERCOOLER
If the intercooler or front of the radiator core is
plugged with mud or dust, cooling efficiency will be
reduced leading to rust. Clean the intercooler and
radiator at regular intervals.

WARNING
When a tire has been replaced, tightening
force on the nuts will drop due to initial set-
ting. Tighten nuts initially after the vehicle
has been driven about 50 to 100 km.

(1) Use a torque wrench to inspect wheel nuts for


looseness and tighten as necessary.

CAUTION
Be sure to use a torque wrench to tighten the
wheel nuts.
Wheel nut tightening 450 to 550 N·m

WARNING
• A loose wheel nut could cause parts dam-
age, and result in a tire falling off. This
could result in impossibility of driving, and
damage of the vehicle and physical injury.
• Insert the wrench handle until it slightly
protrudes from the socket wrench. Insert
the socket wrench deep into the wheel nut.
If inserted only partially over the nut, the
wrench handle or socket wrench might slip
off when force is applied, resulting in
injury.

32. TIRES

Every 40,000 km or
Inspection intervals every 12 months*1

*1: The tires must be inspected depending on


either the odometer reading or operating period
(months), whichever occurs first.

INFLATION PRESSURE CHECK


(1) Use an air pressure gauge to check for proper
tire inflation pressure.
If the pressure is incorrect, adjust it to the indi-
cated standard pressure.
(2) Tire pressure should be checked and adjusted
before driving when the tires are still cool.
(3) The air in the spare tire will gradually leak out
by itself. Once a year, use an air gauge to
check whether the spare tire’s inflation pres- Z21588
sure is slightly higher than the standard pres-
sure. If you use the spare tire, reduce the
inflation pressure to the standard level.
(4) There is a label affixed to the driver’s door indi-
cating the standard inflation pressure. Keep the
tires inflated to the pressures shown on the label.
WARNING
• Excessively low or high tire pressures not
only give a poor ride. Moreover, if the pres-
sure is too low, tires could overheat and
burst.
• Both the inner and outer tires on dual
wheels should be inflated to the same pres- T75454
sure.
• You need not increase tire pressure before
high-speed driving.

CAUTION
These standard tire inflation pressures have
been established and are recommended by the
JATMA (Japan Automobile Tire Manufacturers
Association) and the ETRTO (The European Tire
and Rim Technical Organization). If the tires on
your vehicle were not made by one of the
JATMA and the ETRTO member companies, use
the inflation pressures recommended by your
tires’ manufacturer or adjust the pressures
according to your local standards.

Note: The tire inflation pressures will be higher just


after vehicle operation than before vehicle
operation. The increases in pressure are not
abnormal; they occur because the air in the
tires expands as the tires get hot while the
vehicle is moving. Do not release air from the
tires at this time. The pressures will return to
normal as the tires cool down.

3-51
DRIVE LINE

(5) Never fail to install tire valve caps after check-


ing or adjusting the air pressure.

CHECKING TREAD DEPTH


Make sure that the remaining tread depth is suffi-
cient.

Tread groove depth limit 1.6 mm

When the tread wears down, slip signs (inter-


rupted sections of the grooves) appear across the
tire at the locations corresponding to the marks.
Replace the tire as soon as the slip signs show up
as continued use is dangerous.

WARNING
If the remaining tread is too shallow, the tires
tend to skid and chances of “hydroplaning”
during high speed driving increase. Hydro- 75273
planing can occur when driving on a wet
roads at high speeds. When a vehicle hydro-
planes, tires ride up on and slide over a film
of water, causing the driver to lose control of
both steering and braking.

00315

CHECKING FOR CRACKS, DAMAGE, AND


OBJECTS EMBEDDED IN TREAD
(1) Check both the tread and the sides of each tire
for cracks, damage, and excessive or unusual
wear. Check also for metal pieces, nails, and
stones that might be embedded in the tread or
caught between the tires of dual wheels.
(2) Check the tires for swelling and other deforma-
tion. Also, touch the tires with your hands to
check whether the rubber has been softened Z10805
by oil or chemicals. Inspect the spare tires as
well as those in use.

33. TIRE ROTATION

Each tire wears differently depending on its loca-


tion. Rotate the tires so they will wear uniformly and
have longer service life.

Every 40,000 km or
Tire rotation intervals every 12 months*1

*1: The tire must be rotated depending on either


the odometer reading or operating period
(months), whichever occurs first.

(1) Always use the same type of tire on the same


axle. If tires of different type are used on an
axle, the vehicle will go left or right upon brak-
ing and the steering wheel will turn by itself.
Front tires
Rear tires
Spare tire

WARNING
• As the vehicle is driven after a wheel has Z76299
been replaced, the wheel nuts loosen up
somewhat during the early stages of driv-
ing due to “wear-in”. Therefore, it is neces-
sary to retighten the wheel nuts to the
specified torque after driving 50 to 100 km.
Thereafter, retighten the nuts at regular
intervals.
• If as a result of tire rotation, an additionally
painted face of the disk wheel mounting
face becomes the mounting face for the
mating part (wheel hub and disk wheel),
remove the paint from the mounting face of
the disk wheel and the seating face of
the wheel nut, clean these surfaces with a
wire brush or the like, and then install the
wheel.
If you use the wheel without removing the Z09613
paint, the wheel nuts are likely to become
loose because the paint film is thick.

CAUTION
• Because of their propensity to generate heat,
new tires tend to wear quickly. Install two tires
as a set on the front of the vehicle where the
load is smaller. Break in new tires by driving
200 km or more at 60 km/h or less. After this
run-in period, check tire pressure.
• If there is a difference in diameter between
inner and outer tires of a rear dual wheel, the
difference should be within 6 mm and install
the smaller tire as the inner tire.

WARNING
• Be sure to use new brake fluid. Do not mix
it with brake fluid of different properties or
mineral oil (gas oil, engine oil, gear oil,
automatic transmission fluid, etc.). This
will alter the original properties of brake
fluid, causing the boiling point to drop as
well as the brake rubber parts to swell.
Faulty operation of the brake will result.
• Ensure that no foreign matter or water
enter into the brake fluid when refilling it,
as they will cause faulty brake operation.
• Use a mug exclusively kept for the speci-
fied brake fluid. This ensures that no brake
fluid of different properties or mineral oil
enter into the system.

CAUTION
Brake fluid is corrosive on paintwork. Be careful
not to spill it onto the paintwork. If brake fluid is
spilled onto the paintwork, immediately wipe it off.

Note: • During brake fluid replacement operation, a


change in color of the brake fluid being dis-
charged indicates that the old brake fluid in
the system has been replaced with new
brake fluid.
• During the replacement, be sure to keep the
brake fluid level at the "MAX" mark on the tank.

CAUTION
• If air has entered into the secondary brake
system (anti-lock brake system operating cir-
cuit), bleed air from the secondary system
after completing the air bleeding of the pri-
mary system (normal circuit).
• Normally, during air bleeding operation, air
cannot enter into the secondary system (anti-
lock brake system operating circuit) which is
filled with brake fluid and is closed off. There-
fore, only the primary system (anti-lock brake
system operating circuit) needs to be bled of
air.

BRAKES

Loosen the air bleeder.

Slowly depress and release the brake pedal. Repeat this


several times until a sufficient amount of brake fluid is
discharged from the pipe.

Tighten the air bleeder.

Cycle the brake pedal several times, and finally depress


and hold it.

Loosen the air bleeder.

With the brake pedal still depressed, allow the brake fluid
to drain.

Air in brake fluid No air in brake fluid

Tighten the air bleeder to the specified torque.

Repeat the above procedures on all of the remaining


wheels.

With air bleeding completed on all wheels, install the pow-


er fuse for the anti-lock brake system electronic control
unit.

Air bleeding of the primary system (normal circuit) is com-


pleted.

(2) Air bleeding of secondary brake system


(anti-lock brake system operating circuit)
1) Use the FUSO Diagnostics actuator test (man-
ual bleeding) for bleeding. (See 35EA "Actuator
Test Using FUSO Diagnostics"of the Service
Manual.)

CAUTION
• If the ABS system operates with insufficient
air bleeding on the primary side (normal cir-
cuit), air may enter the secondary side (ABS
operating circuit).
• If air enters the secondary side (ABS opera-
tion circuit), air flows to the primary side (nor-
mal circuit) when the ABS system is
operating, and the stroke of the brake pedal
may increase.

PARKING BRAKE LEVER STROKE CHECK


(1) Make sure that the gearshift lever is in the neu-
tral position (on a manual transmission vehicle)
or that the gearshift lever is in the “P” position
(on a vehicle with a DUONIC system). Start the
engine and depress the brake pedal firmly so
that the vehicle cannot move.
(2) Starting with the parking brake lever in the fully
released position, pull the parking brake lever
with a force of 294 N (30 kgf) until it stops mov-
ing. Check whether the lever stroke (the dis-
tance moved by the lever) is within
specification. If the stroke is out of specifica-
tion, have the vehicle inspected.
Parking brake lever stroke 7 to 9 notches

(3) Make sure the parking brake lever locks
securely in the pulled position.

BRAKING PERFORMANCE
(1) Stop the vehicle on a dry downgrade, set the
parking brake and check to see if the parking
brake can hold the vehicle. If an appropriate
downgrade is not available, drive the vehicle at
a low speed and activate the parking brake to
make sure that it exhibits satisfactory braking
action.
(2) If parking brake performance is in any way
abnormal, vehicle operation could be danger-
ous.

WARNING
Perform brake tests in safe place that pro-
vides good visibility all around. During the
tests, be sufficiently attentive to surrounding
traffic conditions.

CHECK VALVE OPERATION

CAUTION
• Be careful not to allow moisture into the
check valve.
• During the inspection, ensure that the check
valve opens as well as closes correctly.
• Do not attempt to remove the check valve
from the vacuum hose.

(1) Start the engine and charge the vacuum tank


with vacuum.
(2) Stop the engine, and immediately remove the
clamp fixing the vacuum hose onto the vacuum
pipe, and hold the hose in your mouth.
(3) Blow into the hose. The check valve should be
closed, preventing the breath from passing it.
(4) Suck on the hose and depress the brake pedal.
The check valve should be opened immedi- 㻢㻜㻤㻜㻟㻝
ately, allowing air to pass.
(5) If any fault is encountered during the above
inspections, replace the vacuum hose with
check valve.

BRAKING PERFORMANCE
(1) Perform braking tests in a safe place. After
checking that warning lamp or is not
illuminated, drive the vehicle at a low speed to
make sure that braking power is sufficient and
even. If braking seems in any way abnormal,
operating the vehicle could be dangerous.

WARNING
Perform brake tests in a safe place that
allows for good visibility all around. During
the tests, be attentive to surrounding traffic
conditions.

(2) Using MUT-III, check the condition of the brake


control valve.

its side can result in fluid leakage and fire.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF BATTERY

WARNING
• When only the (–) terminal of the 12-volt
battery for engine is disconnected, there
may still be voltage at the (–) terminal of
the 24-volt battery for body. If a wrench or
other metallic object touches the (–) termi-
nal of the 24-volt battery and the frame in
this condition, a short circuit may occur.
• Store any used battery in a place where chil-
dren cannot touch it. Leaking fluid could
otherwise cause burns and blindness.
• Store any used battery with its terminals
uppermost. Placing a battery on its side
could cause fluid leakage and fire.

CAUTION
• The vehicle systems continue to operate for
about 2 minutes after the starter switch has been
put in the “LOCK” position. Wait for at least 2
minutes before disconnecting the battery.
• When removing or installing the battery, do
not disconnect the terminals of the battery
equalizer at the near side of the battery box.
If the terminals get disconnected.

Note: The battery equalizer controls the electrical


balance between the 12-volt battery for
engine and the 24-volt battery for body so as
to protect the 12-volt battery for engine.

BATTERY FLUID LEVEL CHECK


(1) Open the battery lid.
(2) Fluid level is adequate if it lies between the
“UPPER” and “LOWER” level lines on the side
of the battery case.
If inadequate, add battery fluid supplement or
distilled water until the fluid level reaches the
“UPPER” level line.
(3) If the battery has no level line displayed, the
normal range lies from 10 to 15 mm above the Z00409
plate.

(4) If the side of the battery case is not in your


direct view due to equipment or other things on Filler hole
the vehicle body, do the following:
• Remove the battery’s cap. Hand mirror
• Check the battery fluid level using an appro-
priate mirror like a hand mirror .
Battery fluid
• Check whether the battery fluid comes up to
the bottom of the sleeve of each filler hole.

DANGER U03112

BATTERY FLUID CONSISTS OF DILUTED


SULFURIC ACID, WHICH WILL DAMAGE
SKIN OR CLOTHING WHEREVER IT COMES
IN CONTACT. HANDLE IT VERY CAREFULLY.
IF IT GETS ON ANYONE, RINSE IT IMMEDI-
ATELY WITH COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF
WATER, THEN WASH IT THOROUGHLY
CLEAN WITH SOAP. IF YOU ACCIDENTALLY
GET BATTERY FLUID IN YOUR EYES, WASH
YOUR EYES WITH LOTS OF CLEAN WATER
THEN PROMPTLY SEE AN EYE DOCTOR FOR
TREATMENT.
USE PROTECTIVE GOGGLES AND RUBBER
GLOVES WHILE HANDLING BATTERY FLUID.

WARNING
Do not use the battery with the fluid below the
“LOWER” level line. The battery would deteri-
orate rapidly, and it could overheat or
explode.

CAUTION
• After adding fluid, always recharge the bat-
tery or drive the vehicle. Otherwise the bat-
tery might freeze and be damaged, especially
in winter.
• Do not add so much fluid that the fluid in the
battery rises above the “UPPER” level line.
With the fluid above the “UPPER” level, fluid
could leak out and corrode the battery termi-
nals.

INSPECTION OF BATTERY FLUID SPECIFIC


GRAVITY
The battery condition can be confirmed by the spe-
cific gravity of the battery fluid.
Use a specific gravity meter to measure the battery
fluid specific gravity.
If the specific gravity falls below 1.220 (with battery
fluid temperature at 20°C), the battery must be
charged.
If the fluid is other than 20°C, calculate specific 76509
gravity using the following formula.

S20 = St + 0.0007 (t – 20)


S20: specific gravity at fluid temperature of 20°C
St: specific gravity measurement
t: battery fluid temperature

TERMINAL CONNECTION STATUS


(1) Inspect to confirm that battery cable is attached
securely to battery terminals.
(2) Clean terminals where there is dirt or corrosion.

Y03321

TERMINAL CLEANING
Clean the terminals whenever there is dirt or corro-
sion on them.
When there is white powder on terminals due to cor-
rosion, pour warm water on them and wipe them
clean. If the corrosion is conspicuous, remove bat-
tery cable and clean affected parts with wire brush
or sandpaper. After cleaning, apply a light coat of
grease over terminals.
76510

CAUTION
• Install the battery securely. If it is not installed
completely, the case or plate might be dam-
aged by vibration while the vehicle is running,
and battery service life would be shortened.
• To charge battery, remove the battery from
the vehicle whenever possible and remove
cap. If the battery must be charged while left
inside the vehicle, be sure to remove the neg-
ative terminal battery cable.

Note: There is a way to start the engine from the


battery of another vehicle, using a booster
cable, when the battery is dead.
