GENERAL INFORMATION

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

When it is possible that the body or parts may be

scratched during the operation, apply protection tape

before starting work.

1. Before starting work, apply protection tape to

body surfaces around parts to be removed and

2. Before prying parts loose with a screwdriver or

scraper etc., apply protection tape to the tip of

the tool to avoid scratching parts or painted sur–

faces of the body.

In order to prevent a short circuit while doing work on

the electrical circuit such as disconnecting a connec–

tor, first turn off the ignition switch and disconnect

the negative (–) terminal cable from the battery ter–

minal before starting work.

HINT: When battery voltage is required for operation

of a functioning part, connect the cable to the battery

when needed, and promptly disconnect it when no

longer necessary.

Work must be started after 90 seconds from the

time the ignition switch is turned to the 'LOCK'

position and the negative (–) terminal cable is dis–

connected from the battery.

To avoid erasing the memory of each memory

system, never use a back–up power supply from

outside the vehicle.

Fitting Adjustments

When removing and installing body panels which have

a preload value, after their installation refer to the

page containing the installation adjustment methods,

and make adjustments according to the required spe–

cifications.

HINT: When making adjustments, do not completely

loosen the bolts and nuts of the part being adjusted.

Tighten them appropriately, and move the panels by

hand to align them.
