IMPERATIVE: Never tow the vehicle with the wheels hanging (towing by the wheels).
Towing:
- It is necessary to raise the front of the vehicle, in order to tow it.
- If it is not possible to raise the front of the vehicle.
- It is essential to place the selection lever in position "N".
- Do not add any oil.
- Do not exceed a speed of 70 km/h(45 mph)on a journey of 100 Km (60 miles).
- Never tow the vehicle backwards.
- Check that the parking brake is released.

GEARBOX
TRANSMISSION
PROCEDURE PRIOR TO OPERATIONS: AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
If a gearbox malfunction occurs, there are two possible configurations
depending on the seriousness of the fault:
- Gearbox in back-up mode with a replacement programme of (the fault
values are taken in substitution).
- Gearbox in back-up mode with an emergency programme (3rd hydraulic).
WARNING: In the emergency programme, an impact is felt when
changing P/R or N/R.
Reception of the customer.
Discuss with the customer, to find out all the malfunction symptoms.
Oil quality.
If the gearbox has suffered a serious fault resulting in a malfunction or
the destruction of a clutch, the oil will overheat and become
contaminated with impurities: the oil is said to be «burnt».
This is characterised by a black colour and the presence of an
unpleasant smell.
ESSENTIAL: The gearbox must be replaced.Oil level.
Preliminary conditions:
- Vehicle horizontal, parking brake off.
- Check that the gearbox is not in back-up mode (using a diagnostic tool).
- The oil temperature should be 60°C (+8, -2)(using a diagnostic tool).
- Press on the brake pedal, change through all the gears.
- Place the gear lever in position P.
With the engine running at idle, without power consumers (aircon,
heating, etc.):
- Remove the oil level plug.
The oil should flow out, then drip-drip.
Refit the oil level plug (the oil level is correct).
The oil does not flow out through the oil level plug (see operation: drain
fill - bleed the gearbox).

CHECKING THE OIL PRESSURE IN THE AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
WARNING: Clean the flexible pipe of the tool [1] each time before use; the different
automatic gearbox oils cannot be intermixed.
Fit the tool [1]on the tool [2].
Perform the following operations:
- Raise the vehicle, wheels hanging.
- Apply the parking brake.
- Start the engine.
- Check the oil pressure.
WARNING: Wait for the gearbox oil to reach a temperature between 58°C and 68°C.
Check the level of oil in the gearbox (see corresponding operation).
NOTE:Check the temperature of the oil using the diagnostic tool in parameter measures.
Gear lever position: D.
Engine speed: Idling.
Principal oil pressure: 3.7 to 4.2 bars.
