COMPONENT PARTS
• The principle of the linear solenoid valve utilizes the fa
ct that the force pressing on the valve spool installed
inside the coil increases nearly in proportion to the current . This allows it to produce a fluid pressure that is
proportional to this pressing force.
• The N/L (normal low) type does not produce hydr aulic control when the coil is not energized.
CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : Line Pressure Solenoid ValveINFOID:0000000009463975
• The line pressure solenoid valve is installed to control valve.
• The line pressure solenoid valve controls the pressure regulator valve. For information about the pressure
regulator valve, refer to TM-27, "TRANSAXLE : Component Description"
.
• The line pressure solenoid valve uses the linear solenoid valve [N/H (normal high) type]. NOTE:
• The principle of the linear solenoid valve utilizes the fa ct that the force pressing on the valve spool installed
inside the coil increases nearly in proportion to the current . This allows it to produce a fluid pressure that is
proportional to this pressing force.
• The N/H (normal high) produces hydraulic control when the coil is not energized.
CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : Overdrive Control SwitchINFOID:0000000009463976
• The overdrive control switch is inst alled to the selector lever knob.
• If the overdrive control switch is pressed when the O/D OFF indicator lamp on the combination meter is not
lit, the status changes to overdrive OFF and the O/D OFF indicator lamp illuminates.
• If the overdrive control switch is pressed when the O/ D OFF indicator lamp on the combination meter is lit,
the overdrive OFF status is canceled and the O/D OFF indicator lamp turns off.
CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : O/D OFF Indicator LampINFOID:0000000009463977
• O/D OFF indicator lamp is positioned on the combination meter.
• The O/D OFF indicator lamp illuminates when the overdrive function is deactivated (O/D OFF).
• For checking the bulb, this lamp turns on for a cert ain period of time when the ignition switch turns ON,
andthen turns off.
CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : Sh ift Position IndicatorINFOID:0000000009463978
TCM transmits shift position signal to combination meter via CAN communication. The actual shift position is
displayed on combination meter according to the signal.

TORQUE CONVERTER (WITH LOCK-UP FUNCTION)
In the same way as a conventional A/T, the torque c onverter is a system that increases the engine torque and
transmits the torque to the transaxle. A symmetr ical 3-element, 1-stage, 2-phase type is used here.
OIL PUMP
Utilizes a vane-type oil pump that is driven by the engi ne through the oil pump drive chain in order to increase
efficiency of pump discharge volume in low-speed zone and optimize pump discharge volume in high-speed
zone. Discharged oil from oil pump is transmitted to contro l valve. It is used as the oil of primary and second-
ary pulley operation, the oil of clutch operation, and the lubricant for each part.
PLANETARY GEAR
• A planetary gear type of forward/reverse selector me chanism is installed between the torque converter and
primary pulley.
• The power from the torque converter is input via the i nput shaft, operating a wet multi-plate clutch by means
of hydraulic pressure to switch between forward and reverse driving.
Operation of Planetary gear
BELT & PULLEY
It is composed of a pair of pulleys (the groove width is changed freely in the axial direction) and the steel belt
(the steel plates are placed conti nuously and the belt is guided with the multilayer steel rings on both sides).

STRUCTURE AND OPERATION
The groove width changes according to wrapping radius of
steel belt and pulley from low status to overdrive
status continuously with non-step. It is controlled wit h the oil pressures of primary pulley and secondary pulley.
Steel Belt
It is composed of multiple steel plates (A) and two steel rings (B)
stacked to a several number. The feature of this steel belt transmits
power with compression of the steel plate in contrast with transmis-
sion of power in pulling with a rubber belt. Friction force is required
with the pulley slope to transmit power from the steel plate. The force
is generated with the following mechanism:
Oil pressure applies to the secondary pulley to nip the plate. ⇒The
plate is pushed and extended outward. ⇒The steel ring shows with-
stands. ⇒Pulling force is generated on the steel ring. ⇒The plate of
the primary pulley is nipped between the pulley. ⇒Friction force is
generated between the steel belt and the pulley.
Therefore, responsibilities are divi ded by the steel plate that trans-
mits the power with compression and the steel ring that main tains necessary friction force. In this way, the
tension of the steel ring is distributed on the entire su rface and stress variation is limited, resulting in good
durability.
Pulley
The primary pulley (input shaft side) and the secondary pulley (output shaft side) have the shaft with slope
(fixed cone surface), movable sheave (movable cone surface that can move in the axial direction) and oil pres-
sure chamber at the back of the movable sheave.

Part name Function
Torque converter Increases engine torque and transmits it to the transaxle.
Oil pump Utilizes a vane-type oil pump that is driven by the engine through the oil pump drive chain in order to
increase efficiency of pump discharge volume in low-speed zone and optimize pump discharge volume
in high-speed zone. Discharged oil from oil pump is tr ansmitted to control valve. It is used as the oil of
primary and secondary pulley operation, the oil of clutch operation, and the lubricant for each part.
Forward clutch The forward clutch is wet and multiple plate type clutch that consists of clutch drum, piston, drive plate,
and driven plate. It is a clutch to move the vehicle forward by activating piston hydraulically, engaging
plates, and directly connecting sun gear and input shaft.
Reverse brake The reverse brake is a wet multiple-plate type brake that consists of transaxle case, piston, drive plate,
and driven plate. It is a brake to move the vehicle in reverse by activating piston hydraulically, engaging
plates, and fixing planetary gear.
Internal gear The internal gear is directly connected to forward clutch drum. It is a gear that moves the outer edge of
pinion planet of planet carrier. It transmits power to move the vehicle in reverse when the planet carrier
is fixed.
Planet carrier Composed of a carrier, pinion planet, and pinion shaft. This gear fixes and releases the planet carrier in
order to switch between forward and reverse driving.
Sun gear Sun gear is a set part with planet carrier and internal gear. It transmits transmitted force to primary fixed
sheave. It rotates in forward or reverse direction according to activation of either forward clutch or re-
verse brake.
Input shaft The input shaft is directly connected to forward clutch drum and transmits traction force from torque con-
verter. In shaft center, there are holes for hydraulic distribution to primary pulley and hydraulic distribution
for lockup ON/OFF.
Primary pulley It is composed of a pair of pulleys (the groove width is changed freely in the axial direction) and the steel belt. The groove width changes according to wrapping radius of steel belt and pulley from low status to
overdrive status continuously with non-step. It is controlled with the oil pressures of primary pulley and
secondary pulley.
Secondary pulley
Steel belt
Manual shaft When the manual shaft is in the P position, the parking rod that is linked to the manual shaft rotates the
parking pole. When the parking pole rotates, it engages with the parking gear, fixing the parking gear. As
a result, the secondary pulley that is integrated with the parking gear is fixed.

Control
When a wheel spin is detected, the engine output and gear ratio are limited and the line pressure is increased.
Limits engine output when a wheel spin occurs in any of right and left drive wheels.
Vehicle behavior in
control If the accelerator is kept depressing during wheel spin, the engine revolution and vehicle speed are limited to
a certain degree.
Normal retu rn condi-
tion Wheel spin convergence returns the control to the normal control.
Control Engine output is controlled according to a vehicle speed while reversing the vehicle.
Vehicle behavior in
control Power performance may be lowered while reversing the vehicle.
Normal retu rn condi-
tion Torque returns to normal by positioning the selector lever in a range other than “R” position.
Control
When the CVT fluid temperature is high, the gear shift permission maximum revolution and the maximum
torque are reduced than usual to prevent increase of the oil temperature.
Vehicle behavior in
control Power performance may be lowered, compared to normal control.
Normal retu rn condi-
tion The control returns to the normal control when CVT fluid temperature is lowered.
