WARNING:
Fuel is very flammable liquid. If fuel spills or leaks from the pressurized fuel system, it will cause serious injury or death and facility breakage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the “Fuel Line Safety Procedure”, while referring to the “BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION”.
A person charged with static electricity could cause a fire or explosion, resulting in death or serious injury. Before draining fuel, make sure to discharge static electricity by touching the vehicle body.
NOTE:
The rollover valve and the fuel shut-off valve (built into the fuel tank) and also fuel tank leakage are inspected in this inspection.

Air Bag Module And Pre Tensioner Seat Belt Deployment Procedures [Standard Deployment
Control System]
WARNING:
A live (undeployed) air bag module or pre-tensioner seat belt may accidentally
operate (deploy) when it is disposed of and cause serious injury. Do not dispose
of a live (undeployed) air bag module or pre-tensioner seat belt. If the SSTs

Thermostat
Purpose, Function
When the engine coolant temperature is low, the thermostat blocks the engine
coolant passage between the radiator and engine. As a result, because engine
coolant cycles without passing through the radiator, warming is promoted.
