*1: When the starter assembly is replaced, "ST No. 1 relay" must be also replaced.

*2: Not necessary when ECM replaced with new one

*3: Even when not replacing the part, it is necessary to perform the specified necessary procedures after installation.

*4: When "[Parking Support Brake System icon] System Stopped See Owner's Manual" is displayed on the multi-information display.

*5: Also necessary after performing a tire rotation.

*6: It is not necessary to perform this procedure if the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters are installed to the same location.

*7: The vehicle height changes because of tire replacement.

WARNING:

The engine assembly with transaxle is very heavy. Be sure to follow the procedure described in the appropriate service information , or the engine lifter may suddenly drop or the engine assembly with transaxle may fall off the engine lifter.
