SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Precautions for Checking and Adjustments
Your Isuzu Dealer has factory trained technicians and Isuzu genuine parts to service
your vehicle properly. For expert advice and quality service, see your Isuzu Dealer.
WARNING
• To help avoid personal injury, take care when doing any maintenance or making
any check or repair. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for all materials used
during service and maintenance of this vehicle. If used or handled improperly,
they may be hazardous. Improper or incomplete service can also affect the
vehicle and result in personal injury, or damage to the vehicle or its equipment.
If you have any questions about carrying out some service, contact an Isuzu
Dealer.
• Before performing any checks, in models with passive entry and start system,
make sure to turn off the engine and switch the power mode to "OFF". In models
without passive entry and start system, make sure to turn off the engine and
remove the key from the starter switch.
• Pull firmly on the parking brake lever and put the transmission in neutral.
- If your vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission, make sure the
gearshift lever is in "N" position.
- If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission, place the selector
lever in "P" position and make sure the shift indicator displays "P".
• Select a place with a solid and level surface to perform the checking and
maintenance work. Make sure to chock the wheels. It would be very dangerous
if the vehicle started to move.
• To prevent personal injury, keep hands, tools and clothing clear of the engine
cooling fan when the engine is running.
• When raising the vehicle, use a suitable jack, not the one provided on the
vehicle.
• After raising the vehicle and before going underneath to perform work, make
sure the vehicle is supported with jack stands.
• When performing work on the electrical system, begin by switching the power
mode to "OFF" (models with passive entry and start system) or turning the
starter switch to the "LOCK" position (models without passive entry and start
system), wait at least 5 minutes, and then disconnect the negative cable from
the negative terminal on battery. If the negative cable is disconnected within 5
minutes, the electronic control system of the vehicle may malfunction.
