Generator (For Hatchback) Installation

Temporarily install the generator assembly with the fixing bolt.

Install the piping clamp with the bolt A and screw B.

Torque:

Bolt A:

9.8 N*m{100 kgf*cm, 87 in.*lbf}

Temporarily install the fan belt adjusting slider with fan belt adjusting slider fixing bolt A and nut B.

Move generator assembly toward the cylinder block and tighten nut B.

Torque:

11 N*m{112 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf}

Connect the connector and engage the clamp.

Install the wire harness to terminal B with the nut.

Torque:

9.8 N*m{100 kgf*cm, 87 in.*lbf}

Install the terminal cap.

Provisionally install the fan and generator V belt onto each pulley.

NOTICE:

1. Make sure that there is no foreign matter or liquid, such as oil, on the belt and pulleys.
   
2. Make sure that the V belt is securely fitted into the rib grooves of the pulley.
   

Insert an adjusting bar between the engine mounting bracket and generator assembly. Pull the adjusting bar toward the vehicle front to adjust the generator V belt tension.

NOTICE:

Do not insert the adjusting bar between the camshaft timing oil control valve assembly and generator assembly. It could damage the camshaft timing oil control valve assembly.

First tighten bolt A, then tighten bolt B.

Torque:

19 N*m{189 kgf*cm, 14 ft.*lbf} for bolt A

54 N*m{551 kgf*cm, 40 ft.*lbf} for bolt B

Check the fan and generator V belt for wear, cracks or other signs of damage.
If any of the following defects is found, replace the fan and generator V belt.

1. The fan and generator V belt is cracked.
   
2. The fan and generator V belt is worn out to the extent that the cords are exposed.
   
3. The fan and generator V belt has chunks missing from the ribs.
   

Check that the fan and generator V belt fits properly in the ribbed grooves.

HINT:

Check with your hand to confirm that the fan and generator V belt has not slipped out of the grooves on the bottom of the pulley. If it has slipped out, replace the fan and generator V belt. Install a new fan and generator V belt correctly.

Inspect the V belt deflection and tension.

Deflection:

Item	Specified Condition
New belt	8.0 to 9.0 mm (0.31 to 0.35 in)
Used belt	12.5 to 13.5 mm (0.49 to 0.53 in)

Tension:

Item	Specified Condition
New belt	700 to 800 N (71 to 82 kg, 157 to 180 lb)
Used belt	300 to 400 N (31 to 41 kg, 67 to 90 lb)

HINT:

1. When inspecting the V belt deflection, apply 98 N (10 kgf) tensile force to it.
   
2. Perform the V belt inspection and adjustment while the engine is cold.
   
3. V-ribbed belt tension and deflection should be checked immediately after installation of a new belt, and after cranking the engine when inspecting a used belt.
   
4. Check the V belt deflection at the point between the specified pulleys where the deflection is greatest.
   
5. When installing a new belt, set its tension to the intermediate value of the specification.
   
6. When inspecting a belt which has been used for over 5 minutes, apply the Used Belt specifications.
   
7. When reinstalling a belt which has been used for over 5 minutes, adjust its deflection and tension to the intermediate values of each Used Belt specification.
   
8. V-ribbed belt tension and deflection should be checked after 2 revolutions of engine cranking.
   
9. When using a belt tension gauge, confirm its accuracy by using a master gauge first.
