The automatic transmission uses compact triple planet ary gear systems to improve power-transmission effi-
ciency, simplify construction and reduce weight.
It also employs an optimum shift control and super wide gear ratios. They improve starting performance and
acceleration during medium and high-speed operation.

< FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS >
A/T CONTROL SYSTEM
Since both the forward brake and the reverse brake are released, torque from the input shaft drive is not trans-
mitted to the output shaft.
“P” Position
• The same as for the “N” position, both the forward br ake and the reverse brake are released, so torque from
the input shaft drive is not transmitted to the output shaft.
• The parking pawl linked with the select lever meshes with the parking gear and fastens the output shaft mechanically.
“D”, “4”, “3”, “2” Positions 1GR
• The forward brake and the forward one-way clutch regulate reverse rotation of the mid sun gear.
• The 1st one-way clutch regulates reverse rotation of the rear sun gear.
• The 3rd one-way clutch regulates reverse rotation of the front sun gear.
• During deceleration, the mid sun gear turns forward, so the forward one-way clutch idles and the engine
brake is not activated.
