SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The evaporative emission system is used to reduce hydrocarbons emitted into the atmosphere from the fuel system. This reduction of hydrocarbons is accomplished by activated charcoals in the EVAP canister.
The fuel vapor in the sealed fuel tank is led into the EVAP canister which contains activated carbon and the vapor is stored there when the engine is not operating or when refueling to the fuel tank.
The vapor in the EVAP canister is purged by the air through the purge line to the intake manifold when the engine is operating. EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve is controlled by ECM. When the engine operates, the flow rate of vapor controlled by EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve is proportionally regulated as the air flow increases.
EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve also shuts off the vapor purge line during decelerating and idling.
Seat belt maintenance
To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a
mild soap solution or any solution recommended
for cleaning upholstery or carpet.
Then wipe with a cloth and allow the seat
belts to dry in the shade. Do not allow the
seat belts to retract until they are completely
dry.
If dirt builds up in t ...

Brake Burnishing
CAUTION:
Burnish contact surfaces between brake pads and disc rotor
according to the following procedure
after refinishing the disc rotor, replacing brake pads or if a soft pedal
occurs at very low mileage.
Be careful of vehicle speed. Brakes do not operate firmly/sec ...
