ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING
GENERAL INFORMATIONM2370000100862
Vehicle-speed sensitive electric power steering 
(whole range type) has been adopted. This system 
allows a light steering force during stationary steer
-
ing manoeuvre or low speed driving, and a moderate 
steering force during medium or high speed driving.
For vehicles with this system, the electric power 
steering-ECU controls the motor current according to 
the vehicle speed and steering force of the steering 
wheel.
CAN* communication has been adopted in order to 
communicate with another ECUs for obtaining nec
-
essary information related to this control, achieving 
wiring harness saving and secure data communica
-
tion.
NOTE: *: For more information about CAN (Control-
ler Area Network), refer to GROUP 54C, General 
Information 
P.54C-2.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET
For more information about diagnosis code output, 
refer to the Workshop Manual.
SWS INPUT SIGNAL CHECK USING 
M.U.T.-III
When the M.U.T.-III is connected to the diagnosis 
connector and any of the SWS-linked switches is 
operated, the PC buzzer sounds to evaluate whether 
the switch is normal or not.
SWS INPUT SIGNAL CHECK AND ECU 
CHECK BY USING SWS MONITOR
The switch signals sent by ECUs and the operations 
of these ECUs can be confirmed by using the SWS 
monitor and the M.U.T.-III.

GENERAL INFORMATION
BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM35A-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
M2350000100848
FEATURES
Brake system with high reliability and durability have 
achieved distinguished braking performance.
BRAKING PERFORMANCE
•Brake booster with 9-inch variable amplification 
ratio mechanism by which greater braking force 
can be obtained with a less pedal pressure has 
been installed (with brake assist function).
•14-inch disc brake is installed on the front 
wheels. 
•15-inch disc brake is installed on the front 
wheels. 
•8-inch leading trailing type drum brake is installed 
on the rear wheels. 
•14-inch disc brake is installed on the rear wheels. 
STABILITY
•4-wheel anti-lock braking system (4ABS) is 
adopted to prevent slipping caused by the vehicle 
wheels locking up, in order to maintain appropri
-
ate braking distance, and also to maintain vehicle 
stability and steering function.
•Electronic brake-force distribution (EBD) is 
adopted to maintain the maximum amount of rear 
braking force even when the vehicle's load is var
-
ied.
•Diagonal split (X-type) brake fluid line is adopted.
•Ventilated discs have been adopted to front 
brakes to improve anti-fading performance.
•A brake pedal retraction suppression structure 
that restrains the retraction of the brake pedal 
and reduces the shock to the feet of the driver in 
the event of a frontal collision has been adopted.
SERVICEABILITY
•Diagnosis function is adopted for the ABS system 
in order to make inspection easier.
•For the front disc brakes, brake disc separated 
front hub is adapted to make removal and instal
-
lation easier.
•ABS-ECU and hydraulic unit have been inte-
grated to make them more compact and lighter.

TRANSMISSION CONTROL
CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT)23-6
TRANSMISSION CONTROL
GENERAL INFORMATIONM2232000100447
•A smart shift type selector lever has been 
adopted in order to facilitate walkthrough 
between the seats.
•A gun grip type selector lever knob has been 
adopted for better operation and easier visual 
recognition of the switches arranged in the centre 
panel.
•The selector lever assembly has been a single 
unit made by aluminium die casting for better 
accuracy and fewer parts, resulting in the light
-
weight and compact structure. 
•The selector lever has been designed to be com-
pact and appropriately configured not to interfere 
with the energy absorbing mechanism on the 
steering column upon impact of the vehicle.
•In order to prevent abrupt start by erroneous 
operation of selector lever, a CVT erroneous 
operation prevention mechanism (the shiftlock 
mechanism and key interlock mechanism) has 
been adopted.
