INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Check the operation of the control linkage. Refer to TM-21, "Inspection".
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leaks.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no lea ks of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec-
ified level, if necessary.
• Summary of the inspection items:
*Power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

Mechanism
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).
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.
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 divided 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.
Pulley gear shifting operation
• Pulley gear shifting operation The movable sheave slides on the shaft to change the groove width of the pulley. Input signals of engine
load (accelerator pedal opening), engine revolution and gear ratio (vehicle speed) change the operation
pressures of the primary pulley and the secondary pulle y, and controls the pulley groove width. Along with
change of the pulley groove width, the belt contact radi us is changed. This allows continuous and stepless

CVT FLUID COOLER SCHEMATIC
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
CVT Oil Warmer
• The CVT oil warmer (1) is installed on the front part of transaxle
assembly.
• When engine is started while engine and CVT are cold, engine coolant temperature rises more quickly than CVT fluid tempera-
ture. CVT oil warmer is provided with two circuits for CVT and
engine coolant respectively so that warmed engine coolant warms
CVT quickly. This helps shorten CVT warming up time, improving
fuel economy.
• A cooling effect is obtained when CVT fluid temperature is high.
CVT Fluid Cooler (Water-cooling)
• The CVT fluid cooler (water-cooling) is installed in the radiator side tank (right side).
• CVT fluid is cooled by engine coolant.
SHIFT LOCK SYSTEM
Manual valve Distributes the clutch and brake operation pressures (pilot pressure) corresponding to
each shift position.
High clutch/reverse brake switching valve Switches the circuit for the high clutch and the reverse brake.
Torque converter clutch control valve It is operated with the torque converter clutch solenoid valve and it adjusts the tighten-
ing pressure and non-tightening pressure of the torque converter clutch piston of the
torque converter.
Primary pressure control valve It is operated with the primary pressure solenoid valve and adjusts the feed pressure to
the primary pulley.

LINE PRESSURE CONTROL
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. From the 1GR, upshift to a certain gear ratio is only allowed.
Normal return condi-
tion Wheel spin convergence returns the control to the normal control.
ControlWhen 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 return condi-
tion The control returns to the normal control when CVT fluid temperature is lowered.
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 return condi-
tion Torque returns to normal by positioning the selector lever in a range ot
her than “R” position.
ControlThe reverse brake is controlled to avoid becoming engaged when the selector lever is set in “R” position while
driving in forward direction at more than the specified speed.
Vehicle behavior in
control If the selector lever is put at “R” position when driving with the forward gear, the gear becomes neutral, not
reverse.
Normal return condi-
tion The control returns to normal control when the vehicle is driven at low speeds. (The reverse brake becomes
engaged.)

LOCK-UP CONTROL : System Description
INFOID:0000000012431024
SYSTEM DIAGRAM
DESCRIPTION
• Controls for improvement of the transmission effi ciency by engaging the torque converter clutch in the
torque converter and eliminating slip of the converter. Achieves comfortable driving with slip control of the
torque converter clutch.
• The oil pressure feed circuit for the torque converter clutch piston chamber is connected to the torque con- verter clutch control valve. The torque converter clut ch control valve is switched by the torque converter
clutch solenoid valve with the signal from TCM. This controls the oil pressure circuit, which is supplied to the
torque converter clutch piston chamber, to the release side or engagement side.
• If the CVT fluid temperature is low or the vehicle is in fail-safe mode due to malfunction, lock-up control is
prohibited.
Lock-up engagement
In lock-up engagement, the torque converter clutch solenoi d valve makes the torque converter clutch control
valve locked up to generate the lock-up apply pressure. This pushes the torque converter clutch piston for
engagement.
Lock-up release condition
In lock-up release, the torque converter clutch solenoid valve makes the torque converter clutch control valve
non-locked up to drain the lock-up apply pressure. This does not engage the torque converter clutch piston.
