Diagnostic procedure

Step 1-Step 8:

Initial Learning

Warning: When performing a initial learning, be aware of other vehicles, people, and other impediments to order to avoid an accident.

Note: While self-learning control gradually reduces shock during normal driving, initial learning is performed to initially learn a certain amount of driving conditions.

1. Warm-up Increase the ATF temperature by leaving the vehicle idling or performing city driving. Verify that the ATF temperature is between 50 - 120°C (122 - 248°F). It the ATF temperature is outside this range, work to bring it inside the range.

Caution: Do not raise the ATF temperature by stalling the engine.

Note: If the ATF temperature is not between 50 - 120°C (122 - 248°F), initial learning cannot be performed. Before learning, inspect for variable shift shock.

2. Gear shift control learning
^ In D range, with the throttle opening between 25 - 30%, drive until you reach 6th gear and a vehicle speed of 80 km/ha (50 mph) or higher. Then, release the accelerator pedal and coast, and bring the vehicle to a stop in at least 60 s. Repeat this procedure 10 times.
3. Inspect learning results
^ Verify that variable speed shock and shift shock have decreased compared to the conditions before learning.
