0A-2 General Information
Cautions and Notices
Battery Disconnect Caution
Caution:
Before servicing any electrical component, the ignition
key must be in the LOCK position and all electrical
loads must be OFF, unless instructed otherwise in
these procedures. If a tool or equipment could easily
come in contact with a live exposed electrical terminal,
also disconnect the negative battery cable. Failure to
follow these precautions may cause personal injury
and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.
Fuel Tube Caution
Caution:
In order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury
observe the following items:
• Replace all nylon fuel tubes that are nicked,
scratched or damaged during installation, do not
attempt to repair the sections of the nylon fuel
pipes.
• Do not hammer directly on the fuel harness body
clips when installing new fuel pipes. Damage to the
nylon tubes may result in a fuel leak.
• Always cover nylon vapor pipes with a wet towel
before using a torch near them. Also, never
expose the vehicle to temperatures higher than
115°C (239°F) for more than one hour, or more
than 90°C (194°F) for any extended period.
• Apply a few drops of clean engine oil to the male
pipe ends before connecting fuel pipe fittings. This
will ensure proper reconnection and prevent a
possible fuel leak. (During normal operation, the
O-rings located in the female connector will swell
and may prevent proper reconnection if not
lubricated.)
Road Test Caution
Caution:
Road test a vehicle under safe conditions and while
obeying all traffic laws. Do not attempt any maneuvers
that could jeopardize vehicle control. Failure to adhere
to these precautions could lead to serious personal
injury and vehicle damage.
Safety Glasses Caution
Caution:
Wear safety glasses in order to avoid eye damage.
SIR Caution
Caution:
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Inflatable
Restraint (SIR) System. Failure to follow the correct
procedure could cause the following conditions:
• Personal injury
• Unnecessary SIR system repairs
In order to avoid the above conditions, observe the
following guidelines:
• Refer to SIR Component Views in order to
determine if you are performing service on or near
the SIR components or the SIR wiring.
• If you are performing service on or near the SIR
components or the SIR wiring, disable the SIR
system. Refer to Disabling the SIR System in SIR.
Vehicle Lifting Caution
Caution:
To avoid any vehicle damage, serious personal injury
or death when major components are removed from
the vehicle and the vehicle is supported by a hoist,
support the vehicle with jack stands at the opposite end
from which the components are being removed.
Belt Dressing Notice
Notice:
Do not use belt dressing on the drive belt. Belt dressing
causes the breakdown of the composition of the drive
belt. Failure to follow this recommendation will damage
the drive belt.
Fastener Notice
Notice:
Use the correct fastener in the correct location.
Replacement fasteners must be the correct part
number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread
locking compound or sealant are identified in the
service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint
surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect
fastener torque and joint clamping force and may
damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening
sequence and specifications when installing fasteners
in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Fuel Injector Balance Test Notice
Notice:
Do not repeat any portion of this test before running the
engine in order to prevent the engine from flooding.

General Information 0A-3
Sealant Notice
Notice:
Do not allow the RTV sealant to enter any blind
threaded hole. RTV sealant that is allowed to enter a
blind threaded hole can cause hydraulic lock of the
fastener when the fastener is tightened. Hydraulic lock
of a fastener can lead to damage to the fastener and/or
the components. Hydraulic lock of a fastener can also
prevent the proper clamping loads to be obtained when
the fastener is tightened. Improper clamping loads can
prevent proper sealing of the components allowing
leakage to occur. Preventing proper fastener tightening
can allow the components to loosen or separate
leading to extensive engine damage.

0A-4 General Information
General Information
Handling Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Sensitive Parts
When handling an electronic part that has as ESD
sensitive sticker, the service technician should follow
these guidelines to reduce any possible electrostatic
charge build-up on the service technician’s body and
the electronic part in the dealership:
1. Do not open the package until it is time to install
the part.
2. Avoid touching the electrical terminals of the part.
3. Before removing the part from its package, ground
the package to a known good ground on the
vehicle.
4. Always touch a known good ground before
handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across the seat, sitting down from a standing
position or walking a distance.
Model Reference
The model covered in this manual are referred to as a
NPR, NPR-HD, NQR, NRR. (W3500, W4500, W5500,

General Information 0A-5
VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) and
Weight Rating Plate
The VlN and Weight Rating Plate (1) lists the
manufacturer, gross vehicle weight for the vehicle,
maximum front end weight at ground, maximum rear
end weight at ground, and the VlN (vehicle
identification number). This plate is attached to the
pillar above the shoulder belt hole on the driver’s side.
The vehicle identification number is a legal identifier of
your vehicle. It not only appears on the VlN plate, but
also on the Vehicle Certificates of Title and
Registration. The vehicle identification number
specifically identifies a vehicle by code.

the label.)
The service parts identification label is located on the
right-hand step support panel.

Emergency Starting a Vehicle Due to
Discharged Battery
If your vehicle will not start due to a discharged battery,
it can often be started by using energy from another
battery–a procedure called "jump starting."
This vehicle has a 12volt starting system and a
negative ground electrical system. Be sure that the
other vehicle also has a 12volt starting system, and that
it is the negative (black "–") terminal which is grounded
(attached to the engine block, chassis or frame rail). Its
owner's manual may give you that information. DO
NOT TRY TO JUMP START IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF
THE OTHER VEHICLE’S VOLTAGE OR GROUND
(OR IF THE OTHER VEHICLE’S VOLTAGE AND
GROUND ARE DIFFERENT FROM YOUR VEHICLE).
