INSPECTION
FUNCTION AND OPERATION PRINCIPLE
Mass Air Flow Sensor (MAFS) is a hot - film type sensor and is located in between the air cleaner and the throttle
body. It consists of a tube, a sensor assembly and honeycomb cell and detects intake air quantity flowing into the
intake manifold. Air flows from the air cleaner assembly through the honeycomb cell and over the hot film element. At
this time, heat transfer is generated by convection and this sensor loses its energy. This sensor detects the mass air
flow by using the energy loss and transfers the information to the PCM by frequency. The PCM calculates fuel quantity
and ignition timing.

Description
The automatic transmission is a combination of 3 - element 2 - phase 1 - stage torque converter and double shaft
electrocally - controlled unit which provides 4 speeds forward and 1 reverse. To improve the efficiency of power
transmission, the line pressure control was changed applying “Variable Force Solenoid (VFS) valve” on this model.
However, adopting VFS on this model, the line pressure is variably changed according to TPS and the vehicle speed,
this will enable more improved efficiency of power transmission and fuel consumption.
Characteristics
Some of the characteristics include:
▶Different power transfer
▶Different component layout
▶New shift logic(HIVEC) to improve shift feeling
▶Position of Valve Body
▶Variable shift pattern
▶Communication protocol and method
▶Step gate type shift lever.

2. Pressed parts a. Retainer and hub of brakes and clutches
b. Carrier of planetary gear set
Better shift quality 1. Independent control of clutches and brakes enabled better control of
hydraulic pressure and skiped shifts (4 to 2, 3 to 1)
2. During N to D or N to R shift, feedback control adopted.
3. When starting from Creep condition, reduction of shock.(Creep condition is
controlled with 1st gear)
4. Solenoid valve frequency is increased for more accurate control. 35Hz to
61.3Hz except DCCSV that is 35Hz and VFS that is 600Hz.
5. HIVEC adoption for better shift feeling.
6. Variable shift pattern.
Increase in Power train efficiency 1. Fully Variable Line Pressure
2. VFS(Variable Force Solenoid)
- Manual shifting possible
- Step gate type shift lever
CHECKING POWER STEERING BELT TENSION
Refer to EM group(Timing system).
CHECKING POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
1.Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Start the engine. With the vehicle kept stationary, turn the steering wheel several times continuously to raise the
fluid temperature to 50- 60°C (122 - 140°F).
3. With the engine at idle, turn the steering wheel fully clockwise and counter- clockwise several times.
4. Make sure that there is no foaming or cloudiness in the reservoir fluid.
5. Stop the engine and check for any difference in fluid level between a stationary and a running engine.
a.If the fluid level varies 5 mm (0.2 in) or more, bleed the system again.
b. If the fluid level suddenly rises after stopping the engine, further bleeding is required.
c. Incomplete bleeding will produce a chattering sound in the pump and noise in the flow control valve, and
lead to decreased durability of the pump.
REPLACING POWER STEERING FLUID
1.Jack up the front wheels and support them with jackstands.
2. Disconnect the return hose from the oil reservoir and plug the oil reservoir.
3. Connect a vinyl hose to the disconnected return hose, and drain the oil into a container.
4. Remove the fuel pump fuse, then start the engine and wait for the engine to stall. Next, while operating the starting
motor intermittently, turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and then to the right several times to drain the
fluid.
5. Connect the return hoses, then fill the oil reservoir with the specified fluid.
6. Reinstall the fuel pump fuse.
7. Start the engine. Check for oil leakage.
8. Stop the engine.
9. Bleed the system.
Power steering fluid type : PSF - 3
Total quantity : Approx 1.1 liter
AIR BLEEDING
1.Remove the fuel pump fuse, then start the engine and wait for the engine to stall. Next, while operating the starting
motor intermittently (for 15 ~ 20 seconds), turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and then to the right five or
six times.

DESCRIPTION
The immobilizer system will disable the vehicle unless the proper ignition key is used, in addition to the currently
available anti- theft systems such as car alarms, the immobilizer system aims to drastically reduce the rate of auto
theft.
1. SMARTRA type immobilizer
a. The SMARTRA system consists of a transponder located in the ignition key, an antenna coil, a SMARTRA unit,
an indicator light and the PCM(ECM).
b. The SMARTRA communicates to the PCM(ECM) (Engine Control Module) via a dedicated communications line.
Since the vehicle engine management system is able to control engine mobilization, it is the most suitable unit
to control the SMARTRA.
c. When the key is inserted in the ignition and turned to the ON position, the antenna coil sends power to the
transponder in the ignition key. The transponder then sends a coded signal back through the SMARTRA unit to
the PCM(ECM).
d. If the proper key has been used, the PCM(ECM) will energize the fuel supply system. The immobilizer indicator
light in the cluster will simultaneously come on for more than five seconds, indicating that the SMARTRA unit
has recognized the code sent by the transponder.
e. If the wrong key has been used and the code was not received or recognized by the PCM(ECM) the indicator
light will continue blinking for about five seconds until the ignition switch is turned OFF.
f. If it is necessary to rewrite the PCM(ECM) to learn a new key, the dealer needs the customer's vehicle, all its
keys and the Scan tool (pro) equipped with an immobilizer program card. Any key that is not learned during
rewriting will no longer start the engine.
g. The immobilizer system can store up to four key codes.
h. If the customer has lost his key, and cannot start the engine, contact motor service station.
COMPONENTS OPERATIONS
PCM (Power Train Control Module)
1. The PCM(ECM) carries out a check of the ignition key using a special encryption algorithm, which is programmed
into the transponder as well as the PCM(ECM) simultaneously. Only if the results are equal, the engine can be
started. The data of all transponders, which are valid for the vehicle, are stored in the PCM(ECM).
