GEARBOX
TRANSMISSION
PROCEDURE PRIOR TO OPERATIONS: AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
If a gearbox malfunction occurs, there are two possible configurations
depending on the seriousness of the fault:
- Gearbox in back-up mode with a replacement programme of (the fault
values are taken in substitution).
- Gearbox in back-up mode with an emergency programme (3rd hydraulic).
WARNING: In the emergency programme, an impact is felt when
changing P/R or N/R.
Reception of the customer.
Discuss with the customer, to find out all the malfunction symptoms.
Oil quality.
If the gearbox has suffered a serious fault resulting in a malfunction or
the destruction of a clutch, the oil will overheat and become
contaminated with impurities: the oil is said to be «burnt».
This is characterised by a black colour and the presence of an
unpleasant smell.
ESSENTIAL: The gearbox must be replaced.Oil level.
Preliminary conditions:
- Vehicle horizontal, parking brake off.
- Check that the gearbox is not in back-up mode (using a diagnostic tool).
- The oil temperature should be 60°C (+8, -2)(using a diagnostic tool).
- Press on the brake pedal, change through all the gears.
- Place the gear lever in position P.
With the engine running at idle, without power consumers (aircon,
heating, etc.):
- Remove the oil level plug.
The oil should flow out, then drip-drip.
Refit the oil level plug (the oil level is correct).
The oil does not flow out through the oil level plug (see operation: drain
fill - bleed the gearbox).

GEARBOX
TRANSMISSION
AM6 GEARBOX CONTROLSNOTE:The vehicle is equipped with «shift lock». It is necessary to switch on the ignition and
press the brake pedal to release the selection lever from position "P".
The switch "a"positioned on the gear control panel allows the driver to choose one of the
following 3 driving programmes:
- Normal programme:The normal programme operates in the absence of any other selection
being made (auto-adaptive mode ; eco law).
- Sport programme:The sport programme permits a more dynamic driving style, with greater
performances and acceleration.
- Snow programme:The snow programme facilitates moving off and traction on ground that
has limited adhesion.
To revert to the normalprogramme, you have to press a second timeon the sportor snow
switch.
