. Ascending Contlol
When the TCM determines that the vehicle is climbing a hill in @ position, the system extends the engagement area
of 3rd gear to prevent the transmission Irom frequenrly shitting between 3rd and 4th gears, so the vehicle can run smooth
and have more power when needed.
NOTE: Shift schedules between 3rd and 4th gear are stored in the TCM to enable the transmission to automatically
select the most suitable gear according to the magnitude of a gradient by Fuzzy logic.
. Descending Control
When the TCM determines that the vehicle is going down a hill in @ position. the shift-up speed from 3rd to 4th gear
when the throttle is closed becomes taster than the set speed for tlat road driving to widen the 3rd gear driving area.
This, in combination with engine brake from the deceleration lock-up, achieves smooth driving when the vehicle is
descending.
There are two ascending modes with different 3rd gear driving areas according to the magnitude of a gradient stored in
the TCM.
When the vehicle is in 4th gear, and you are decelerating on a gradual hill, or when you are applying the brakes on a
steep hill, the transmission will downshitt to 3rd gear. When you accelerate the transmission will then return to 4th gear.

. Deceleration Control
Vohicle SDood
When the vehicle goes around a corner, and needs to decelerate first and then accelerate, the TCM sets the data for
deceleration control to reduce the number of times the transmission shifts to obtain smooth driving. When the vehicle
is decelerating from speeds above 27 mph (43 km/h). the TCM shifts the transmission from 4th to 3rd earlier than normal
to cope with upcoming acceleration to maintain smooth driving.
NOTE:
Fuzzy Logic: Fuzzy logic is a from at artificial intelligence that lets computers respond to changing conditions much like
a human mind would.

Construetion
The pump is a vane-type incorporating a flow control valve (with an integrated relief valve) and is driven by a V-belt from
the crank pulley. The pump features 10 vanes, Each vane performs two intake/dischsrge operations for every rotation of
the rotor. This means that the hydraulic fluid pressure pulse becomes extremely small during discharge.
CAM RING
FLOW CONTBOL VALVE
DRIVE
Operation
The belt-driven pulley rotates the rotor through the drive shaft, As the rotor rotates, the hydraulic pressure is applied to
the vane chamber of the rotor and the vanes witl rotate while being pushed onto the inner circumference of the cam .ing.
The inner circumference of the cam ring has an extonded portion with respect to the center of the shaft. so the rollers
move downward in the axial direction as the carrier rotates. As a result of this roller movemsnt, the internal volume of the
vane chamber will change, resulting in fluid intake and discharge.

System Description
Steering Gearbox
The rack-and-pinion type steering gearbox has a valve unit incorporated with the pinion to control the steering fluid pres-
sure. Steering fluid from the pump is regulated by a rotary valve in the valve unit and is sent through the cylinder pipe to
the power cylinder, where hydraulic pressure is applied. The steering fluid in the other side of the power cylinder returns
through the cylinder pipe and valve unit to the reservoir.
VALVE UNIT
CYLINDER PIPE
POWEB CYLINDER
Valve Unit
Inside the valve unit is the valve, which is coaxial with the pinion shaft, and controls the steering fluid pressure. The valve
housing is connected with the fluid pipe from the pump, return pipe to the pump, and the two cylinder pipes from the
respective power cylinder.
The pinion shaft is double - structured with the input shaft connected to the pinion gear, both of which are interconnected
with the torsion bar.
The pin insened in the valve and the pinion shaft groove engage; this allows the pinion shaft to rotate together with the
Because of this construction, the difference in angle in the circumferential direction between the input shaft and the valve
becomes larger according to the torsional strength of the pinion or steering resistance. However, maximum torsion
between the shafts is regulated by the engaged splines of the shafts at the pin engagement section to hold the torsion bar
within the set value.
This allows the steering system to lunction as an ordinary rack-and-pinion type steering if the steering fluid is not pressur-
ized because of a faulty pump.
