GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Repair operations can be separated mainly into the following 3 processes:
Diagnosis
Removing/Installing, Replacing, Disassembling/Reassembling, Checking and Adjusting
Final Inspection
The following procedures are omitted from this manual. However, these procedures must be performed.
Use a jack or lift to perform operations.
Clean all removed parts.
Perform a visual check before and after performing any work.
PREPARATION
Use of Special Service Tools (SST) and Special Service Materials (SSM) may be required, depending on the repair procedure. Be sure to use SST and SSM when they are required and follow the work procedure properly. A list of SST and SSM is in the "Preparation" section of this manual.
REPAIR PROCEDURES
For component illustrations and procedures, there are 2 types of contents.
For "removal", "installation", "disassembly" and "reassembly":
For "removal", "installation", "disassembly" and "reassembly", the component illustrations include the key points of the procedures and the order in which they are performed.

Numbers shown in the illustrations and procedure tables indicate the sequence in which steps should be performed.
The included "Part Name Code" is used when searching for the applicable component in the Parts Catalog.
Illustrations of similar vehicle models are sometimes used. In these cases, minor details may be different from the actual vehicle.
The illustrations show the locations for the work and the work procedures to be performed, while the explanation text includes only those tasks which involve key points, with detailed work instructions, standard values and notices.

"Major areas involving basic vehicle performance such as moving/turning/stopping" indicates areas that require a higher degree of precision when tightening.
Non-reusable parts, grease application areas, precoated parts and torque specifications are noted in the component illustrations.
Illustrations of similar vehicle models are sometimes used. In these cases, minor details may be different from the actual vehicle.
Only items with key points are described in the text. What to do and other details are explained using illustrations next to the text. Both the text and illustrations are accompanied by standard values and notices.
