@. Make sure iacks and safety stands are placed prop€dy,
and hoist brackets are atlach€d to correct position on
the enginc.
. Apply parking brake and block rear whosls so car will
nol roll olf stands and lall on you while working under
it.
CAUTION: Use fender covers to svoid damaging painted
surfaces.
1. Disconnect the negative {-) cable first, then the pos-
itive (+) cable from the battery'

GRADE LOGIC CONTROL SYSTEM
How it works:
The pCM compares actual driving conditions with driving conditions memorized in the PCM, based on the input from the
vehicle speed sensor, the throttle position sensor, the barometoric pressure sensor, the engine coolant temperature sensor,
the brake switch signal, and the shift lever position signal, to control shifting while a vehicle is ascending or descending a
slope, or reducing speed.
