3. ENGINE COMPARTMENT LAYOUT
Do not work on the engine compartment while the engine, radiator, exhaust manifold, muffler or
catalytic converter is hot. Always turn the engine off and allow it to cool before starting the
maintenance.
Regularly check the engine oil level and add Ssangyong genuine engine oil if necessary.
Clean the dipstick with clean cloth so that any foreign materials cannot get into the engine. -

3. WARNING LIGHTS AND INDICATORS
ESP OFF Indicator
This lamp comes on when
pressing the "ESP OFF" switch or
the ESP system is defective.
When the ESP system is
activated, this lamp blinks and a
chime sounds.
Immobilizer Indicator
This indicator comes on
when the ignition key is
communicating with the
engine control unit for
approx. 0.5 seconds.Glow Indicator
When the ignition key is turned
ON, this indicator lamp comes on
and the combustion chamber is
warmed up. In the vehicle
equipped with direct injection type
engine, this indicator may come
on very shortly or may not come
on.
Fog Lamp / Headlamp
High Beam Indicator
This lamp comes on when
the fog lamp or high beam
headlamp operates to
indicate the operating
status.Engine Oil Pressure Warning
Light
This lamp comes on if there is any
fault in the engine oil system and
goes off when a certain amount of
time has elapsed after turning ON
the ignition switch.
Door ajar warning
light
This light comes on
when a door or
tailgate is either
opened or not closed
completely.Brake warning light
This warning light comes on
and warning buzzer sounds
when the parking brake is
applied and/or the brake fluid
level is lower than specified
level.Seat belt warning lamp
The seat belt warning light comes on and
the seat belt warning chime sounds for 6
seconds when the ignition switch is
turned to "ON" position unless the
driver's seat belt is securely fastened.
This reminding operation stops when the
driver fastens the seat belt.
Engine Coolant Overheat
Warning Light
When the coolant temperature is
abnormally hot (over 120℃), this
warning light blinks and a warning
buzzer sounds at 1 Hz. (check
cooling system)
SSPS warning light
This warning light comes on when
the SSPS system is defective.
When this warning light comes
on, the steerability becomes
heavier.

1. OVERVIEW
The six speed automatic (M78) transmission is
available in two variants: four wheel drive and
two wheel drive.
The transmission has the following features:
Six Forward Speeds
One reverse gear
A torque converter with an integral converter lock-up clutch
Electronic shift and pressure controls
A single planetary gear-set
A double planetary gear-set
Two hydraulically controlled brake bands
Three multi-plate clutches
All hydraulic functions are directed by electronic solenoids to control: -

-
-
-
-
-
-
-
Engagement feel
Shift feel
Shift scheduling
Modulated torque converter clutch applications ·
·
·
·
The transmission contains fully synthetic automatic transmission fluid (ATF) and is filled for life; therefore
it does not require periodic servicing.
Engine power reaches the transmission via a torque converter with integral converter lock-up clutch.
The six forward gears and one reverse gear are obtained from a single planetary set, followed by a
double planetary set. This type of gear-set arrangement is commonly known as Lepelletier type gear-set.
The automatic transmission is electronically controlled. The control system is comprised of the following
elements:
External transmission control unit (TCU)
Internal embedded memory module (EMM)
Input and output speed sensors
Valve body unit comprised of four on/off solenoid valves and six variable bleed solenoids

2. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
1) Terms and Definition
CBS: Conventional Brake System
ABS: Anti-Lock Brake System
EBD: Electronic brake-Force Distribution
ESP: Electronic Stability Program
ABD: Automatic Braking Differential
ASR: Acceleration Slip Regulation
AYC: Active Yaw Control (Understeer and Oversteer Control)
HBA: Hydraulic Brake Assistant
ARP: Active Rollover Protection
HSA: Hill Start Assistant
Brake pad: Brake pad is a component of disk brakes used in automotive and other applications.
Brake pad is steel backing plates with friction material bound to the surface that faces the brake disc.
Brake disc: The brake disc is a device for slowing or stopping the rotation of a wheel while it is in
motion.
Brake caliper: To stop the wheel, friction material in the form of brake pads (mounted on a device
called a brake caliper) is forced hydraulically against both sides of the disc. Friction causes the disc
and attached wheel to slow or stop.
Brake master cylinder: The brake master cylinder is a control device that converts non-hydraulic
pressure (commonly from a driver's foot) into hydraulic pressure, in order to move other device(s)
which are located at the other end of the hydraulic system, such as one or more slave cylinders. As
piston(s) move along the bore of the master cylinder, this movement is transferred through the
hydraulic fluid, to result in a movement of the slave cylinder(s). The hydraulic pressure created by
moving a piston (inside the bore of the master cylinder) toward the slave cylinder(s) compresses the
fluid evenly, but by varying the comparative surface-area of the master cylinder and/or each slave
cylinder, one will vary the amount of force and displacement applied to each slave cylinder (relative to
the amount of force and displacement that was applied to the master cylinder). -

4. AIR BLEEDING
Fill up the brake fluid up to "MAX" line on the
reservoir. 1.
Fill the reservoir with brake fluid and pump the
brake pedal several times. Then keep it
depressed. 2.
Loosen the bleed screw and collect the
bleeding brake fluid from the brake line with
the order in the figure. 3.
Fill the reservoir with the brake fluid as much
as it bleeded, and continue to bleeding
operation. Never reuse the used brake fluid.
Use only specifies brake fluid (DOT 4). Add brake fluid between MAX and MIN lines on the
reservoir (0.7 to 0.8 liters).
Be careful not to splash the brake fluid on painted area or body.
Make sure that any foreign material does not get into brake line.
Always work with another staff. -

Maximum Stroke of Brake Pedal ▶
Check the brake pedal with below procedures: -
Start the engine.
Pump the brake pedal around 3 times.
Depress the brake pedal with approx. 30 kg
and measure the distance (A) between the
upper surface of pedal pad and the lower
dash panel.
If the measured value is out of the specified
value, adjust the length. 1.
