Installation

1.  Rotate the plate nuts by hand in the direction of the arrow shown in the figure until they are seated.

Caution

•  After removing the dashboard, the plate nuts of the member junctions will have loosened. If the dashboard is installed with the plate nuts loosened, the plate nuts may contact the vehicle body, causing a dent or damage to the coating film, and the dashboard installation will be difficult. Before inserting the dashboard into the cabin, seat the plate nuts of the member junctions.

•  If the plate nuts are tightened excessively, the plate nuts may not move when installing the bolts, resulting in damage to the member junction tab and the vehicle body. After seating the plate nuts, verify that they can be rotated by hand.

Note

•  If the plate nuts cannot be rotated by hand, loosen the plate nuts using a hexagonal wrench.

2.  Verify that the member junction tabs are engaged to the dashboard.

Caution

•  If the member junction tabs are disengaged from the dashboard when inserting the dashboard into the cabin, the vehicle body could be damaged. Before inserting the dashboard into the cabin, verify that the member junction tabs are engaged with the dashboard.

3.  Insert the dashboard from either the driver-side or passenger-side front door opening.

4.  Move the dashboard in the direction of the arrow shown in the figure, align it with the guide pins on the vehicle body sides, and set it.

Note

•  Visually verify the installation condition of the guide pins on the vehicle body sides and the dashboard from the position shown in the figure.

ac5uuw00006738

7.  Tighten the bolts on the passenger-side temporarily.

Note

•  When seating the bolts, visually verify from the lower side of the dashboard that the plate nuts of the member junctions emerge toward the body panel while rotating.

ac5uuw00006739

8.  Verify that the bolt holes on the vehicle side and the bolt insertion position of the member junctions are aligned.

Note

•  If the bolt holes on the vehicle side and the bolt insertion position of the member junctions are not aligned, remove the bolts on the driver-side and passenger-side and repeat from Step 5.

ac5uuw00006740

9.  Tighten the new bolts temporarily.
