Purpose, Function
Timing chain
The timing chain transmits the rotation force of the crankshaft to the camshaft to perform the rotation timing of the crankshaft and camshaft.
Chain tensioner
The chain tensioner constantly maintains the timing chain tension and the timing chain operation is stabilized.
Construction
Timing chain
The timing chain is installed between the camshaft sprocket and crankshaft sprocket.

Lubrication of the timing chain and each sprocket is performed using the engine oil from the engine front cover.
Improvement of the rigidity of the chain guide and tensioner arm and the stability of the timing chain operation have reduced the sliding resistance.
Chain tensioner
The chain tensioner is installed to the cylinder block (engine front).
An oil pressure type chain tensioner has been adopted for the chain tensioner.
OPERATION
Chain tensioner
Fluctuation in the timing chain tension by oil pressure and spring force is suppressed, and the tension is maintained at a constant.

WARNING
Do not spray water in the cabin:
Splashing water on electrical parts such as the audio unit and switches is dangerous
as it could cause a malfunction or a fire.
Dashboard Precautions
Prevent caustic solutions such as perfume and cosmetic oils from contacting the
dashboard. They will ...
Ion Sensor
Purpose/Function
Detects ion generation in the combustion chamber for detecting pre-ignition.
Detects ions which occur due to fuel combustion as current by applying bias
voltage to the spark plug, which is amplified in the ignition coil internal
circuit and input to the PCM.

Blower Unit
Purpose
The blower unit switches between fresh air and recirculated air (FRESH/REC)
and sends airflow into the cabin.
Function
Air is blown by the blower motor in the blower unit.
The blower unit switches the air intake port to FRESH or REC based on the
position of ...
