If the pressure drops, check the hoses, radiator and water pump for leaks. If no external leaks are found, check the heater core, cylinder block and cylinder head.
19. ADJUST MILLIMETER WAVE RADAR SENSOR ASSEMBLY |

- CAUTION:
- Exposure to radio frequency emissions is hazardous to your health. It is hazardous to your health to be within 20 cm (7.9 in.) of the device's radio frequency aperture.
- NOTICE:
Before adjusting the radar beam axis, prepare the vehicle as follows:
Check the tire pressure and adjust it if necessary.
Remove all excess weight from the vehicle (luggage, heavy objects, etc. ).
Check and adjust the vertical direction of the radar sensor.

Remove dust, oil, and foreign matter from the radar sensor's level rack.
Set a level on the radar sensor's level rack.

Check that the air bubble is within the red frame on the level.
- OK:
- The air bubble is within the red frame on the level.
If the bubble is not within the red frame, use a hexagon wrench to adjust screw A until the air bubble is within the red frame.
- HINT:
- Result:
Adjustment Direction Adjustment Procedure Adjustment Angle Vertical adjustment Upward direction: Turn screw A to negative (-) sideDownward direction: Turn screw A to positive (+) sideApprox. 1.0° per turn

- SST
- 09870-60000(09870-60010,09870-60040)
- HINT:
- Prepare a 10 m (32.81 ft) string, a string with a sharp-pointed weight (plumb bob), and a 5 m (16.41 ft) tape measure.

Place the reflector.
Hang the string (with weight) from the center of the vehicle's rear emblem. Mark the vehicle's rear center point on the ground. Repeat the same procedure for the front of the vehicle.

Set one end of the 10 m (32.82 ft) string on the vehicle's rear center point. Run the string over the vehicle's front center point to a position 5 m (16.41 ft) beyond the vehicle front center point, as shown in the illustration. Mark the 5 m (16.41 ft) position.
Using a tape measure, measure 12 mm (0.47 in.) to the left of the 5 m (16.41 ft) position. Place the reflector at that position.
- NOTICE:
