1. SPECIFICATION
The engine oil filter element should be changed at the same time with the engine oil.
Regularly check the engine oil level and add the engine oil if necessary.
Remember to check the engine oil level and shorten the cycle to replace the engine oil
under severe driving conditions. -

(3) Starting with jumper cable
If the battery is weak or terminated, the battery from another vehicle can be used with jumper
cables to start the engine.
Connecting order ▶
The positive (+) terminal of the discharged battery
The positive (+) terminal of the booster battery
The negative (-) terminal of the booster battery
Connect one end of the other jumper cable to the body of the discharged vehicle, such as the
engine block or a front towing hook. 1.

Starting ▶
Prepare a set of jumper cables.
Place another vehicle that has the same 12 V of power near to the discharged vehicle.
Switch off all electrical accessories for the discharged vehicle.
Apply the parking brake and shift the transaxle to the P position (automatic transaxle) or neutral
(N) position (manual transaxle).
Connect the jumper cables.
Try to start the discharged vehicle while accelerating the engine rpm in the booster vehicle.
Attempt to start the engine with the discharged battery.
After starting the engine, carefully disconnect the jumper cables in the reverse sequence of
connection. 1.

2. FEATURES
Early Downshifts with Hard Braking and Skip Shifts ▶
When heavy braking is detected, the transmission downshifts early and skips gears to provide
increased engine braking to provide gear selection for tip-in.
Gear Hold on Uphill/Downhill ▶
If the accelerator pedal is released when travelling uphill, upshifts are prevented to reduce
busyness on grades. If the accelerator pedal is released when travelling downhill, upshifts are
prevented to enhance engine braking.
Soft Engagement when Shifting to “D” and “R” Position ▶
A soft engagement feature avoids harsh take up of drive when selecting Drive or Reverse. This is
achieved by limiting engine speed and engine torque which results in a rapid, but progressive
engagement of either Drive or Reverse when moving from the Park or Neutral positions. There is
no drive engagement prevention strategy implemented on the transmission system as there is
sufficient engine strategy to protect the system. However, reverse gear engagement is prevented
until engine speed is less than 1400 rpm and the accelerator pedal position is less than 12% and
vehicle speed is less than 10 km/h.
Converter Clutch Lock-Up In All Gears ▶
The transmission features converter clutch lock-up in all gears. This feature provides improved
fuel economy and vehicle performance. It also improves transmission cooling efficiency when
towing heavy loads at low speeds, e.g. in city driving or hill terrain.
Embeded Memory Module (EMM) ▶
The embedded memory module (EMM) is
matched to the transmission's valve bodies
during transmission assembly to ensure
refined shift quality. The EMM is integrated
into the input speed sensor which is mounted
on the valve body in the transmission. The
EMM is used to store data such as valve body
calibration data and valve body serial number.
Upon installation, the TCU will download the
data from the EMM and utilise this data in the
operation of the transmission.

4. LIMP HOME MODE
In case of transmission malfunction ▶
If a serious fault occurs in the automatic transmission, the TCU enters the limp home
mode to secure safe driving and protect the automatic transmission.
As power is no longer supplied to the solenoid, the current basic function (P, R, N, D) is
maintained and the 4th gear can be maintained only by the operation of the hydraulic
system without electrical operation.
The ECU communicates with other electric modules with CAN. If a serious fault occurs, the
transmission automatically enters the limp home mode for service.
The TCU monitors all factors which can affect to the performance of the transmission and
diagnose the system according to OBD II regulation. 1.
2.
3.
4.
In case of overheated transmission ▶
The TCU enters the limp home mode when the batter voltage drops below 8 V.
If the transmission is overheated, the shift pattern is changed to the hot mode to cool the
transmission more efficiently.
While the transmission is overheated, the selector lever symbol and engine temperature
warning lamp on the instrument cluster blink until the transmission is cooled down to the
normal operation temperature. If the transmission is excessively overheated, the gear
cannot be shifted but remains in the neutral position. 1.
2.
3.
Towing the vehicle with A/T ▶
The best way to transport the vehicle is to load it to a truck and transport it, especially if the
vehicle is 4WD.
If towing the vehicle with the propeller shaft connected, the transmission or oil pump of
transfer case may malfunction, resulting in internal damage due to poor lubrication. -
