Drive Belt Tension Check

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. Remove the radiator condenser tank mounting bolts.
  2. Move the radiator condenser tank to a place where it will not be a hindrance when checking the drive belt tension.
    CAUTION: Check the drive belt tension after turning the crankshaft clockwise one turn or more.
  3. Make sure that the indicator mark on the auto-tensioner is within the area marked with A in the illustration.
  4. If the mark is out of the area A, replace the drive belt (Refer to <<B>> DRIVE BELT REMOVAL  .)
    NOTE: The drive belt tension check is not necessary as the auto-tensioner is adopted.
  5. Tighten the radiator condenser tank mounting bolts to the specified torque.

    Tightening torque: 12 ± 2 N.m (102 ± 22 in-lb)
