Refer To The Workshop Manual For Detailed Adjustment Procedures

• The steps in this inspection sheet are designed for efficient movement around the vehicle.

• Problems found during inspection should be noted on a repair order.

• Unless otherwise stated, each item should be inspected for fit, appearance and/or operation.

• Inspection items followed by an asterisk (*) are required only if the vehicle is equipped with that feature.

Pre-Delivery Inspection Table

□Fuel, engine coolant, and hydraulic lines, fittings, connections, and components for leaks
□Engine oil level
□Brake/clutch fluid level
□Windshield washer reservoir fluid level
□Radiator coolant level
□Tightness of battery terminals, electrolyte level and voltage (12.4 V)
Record the voltage and electrolyte specific gravity in the table below.
<Judgment Criteria>

• If the cell with the lowest specific gravity is less than 1.17, replace the battery

• If the cell with the lowest specific gravity is 1.17 or more, recharge the battery, after charging if the cell with the lowest specific gravity is less than 1.25, replace the battery.

Please refer to the Service-Information (E039/12A) to get the detail battery inspection procedure.
