CAUTION:
wBe sure to connect both the high and low pressure
quick±connectors onto the A/C system when evacuating.
If only one side is connected, the system would be open
to atmosphere through the other connector, making it
impossible to maintain vacuum.
wBe sure to turn off the manifold gauge valve immediately
after evacuating the system. Then you may switch off the
vacuum pump.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN CHARGING
REFRIGERANT
1. DO NOT OPERATE COMPRESSOR WITHOUT ENOUGH
REFRIGERANT IN REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
If there is not enough refrigerant in the refrigerant system, oil
lubrication will be insufficient and compressor burnout may
occur, so take care to avoid this.
2. DO NOT OPEN HIGH PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE
WHILST COMPRESSOR IS OPERATING
If the high pressure valve is opened, refrigerant flows in the
reverse direction and could cause the charging cylinder to
rupture, so open and close the low pressure valve only.
3. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERCHARGE SYSTEM WITH
REFRIGERANT
If refrigerant is overcharged, it causes problems such as in-
sufficient cooling, poor fuel economy, engine overheating
etc.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(SRS)
Failure to carry out service operations in the correct se-
quence could cause the supplemental restraint system to
deploy, possibly leading to a serious accident.
During removal or installation of the parts and the yellow wire
harness and connector for the airbag is necessary, refer to
the precautionary notices in the RS section before carrying
out operation. AC±6

3. HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The hydraulic control system is composed of the oil pump, the valve body, the solenoid valves, and the
clutches and brakes, as well as the fluid passages which connect all of these components. Based on
the hydraulic pressure created by the oil pump, the hydraulic control system governs the hydraulic pres-
sure acting on the torque converter clutch, clutches and brakes in accordance with the vehicle driving
conditions.
There are 3 solenoid valves on the valve body.
The No.1 and No.2 solenoid valves are turned on and off by signals from the ECM to operate the shift
valves and change the gear shift position.
The lock-up solenoid valve is operated by signals from the ECM to engage or disengage the lock-up
clutch of the torque converter clutch.
LINE PRESSURE
Line pressure is the most basic and important pressure used in the automatic transmission, because
it is used to operate all of the clutches and brakes in the transmission.
If the primary regulator valve does not operate correctly, line pressure will be either too high or too low.
Line pressure that is too high will lead to shifting shock and consequent engine power loss due to the
greater effort required of the oil pump; line pressure that is too low will cause slippage of clutches and
brakes, which will, in extreme cases, prevent the vehicle from moving. Therefore, if either of these prob-
lems are noted, the line pressure should be measured to see if it is within specification.
THROTTLE PRESSURE
Throttle pressure is always kept in accordance with the opening angle of the engine throttle valve. This
throttle pressure acts on the primary regulator valve and, the line pressure is regulated according to
the throttle valve opening.
In the hydraulically controlled automatic transmission, throttle pressure is used for regulating line pres-
sure and as signal pressure for up-shift and down-shift of the transmission. In the electronically con-
trolled transmission, however, throttle pressure is used only for regulating line pressure. Consequently,
improper adjustment of the transmission throttle cable may result in a line pressure that is too high or
too low. This, in turn, will lead to shifting shock or clutch and brake slippage.
