• When performing the initial learning, apply the parking brake securely and block the front and rear wheels using wheel blocks so that the vehicle does not move. Otherwise, the vehicle may move which could lead to an accident because the gears are forcibly changed with the engine running and the shift lever in the drive position while in the initial learning.
Note
• While the initial learning is being performed, the following phenomena may occur.
― Shift shock occurs intermittently.
― Indications such as selector lever positions differ from those displayed normally.
• The automatic transaxle initial learning can be performed using the M-MDS.
Introduction
• If the initial learning is not completed, perform the initial learning if any of the following parts is replaced. Otherwise, engine racing may occur or shift shock may increase.
― Control valve body
― Oil pressure switch
― Clutch (low clutch, high clutch, R-3-5 brake, 2-6 brake, and low and reverse brake)
― Automatic Transaxle
