CHASSIS AND BODY MAINTENANCE
1. Remove filler plug (1). Fill with new oil until oil level reaches the
specified limit at filler plug hole as shown.
2. After refilling oil, check oil level. Install a new gasket on filler plug
(1), then install it into transaxle. Tighten filler plug to specifica-
tion. Refer to MT-17, "
Disassembly and Assembly" .
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
Checking A/T FluidINFOID:0000000001704747
1. Warm up engine.
2. Check for A/T fluid leakage.
3. Before driving, A/T fluid level can be checked at A/T fluid tem-
peratures of 30 to 50°C (86 to 122°F) using the “COLD” range
on A/T fluid level gauge.
a. Park vehicle on level surface and set parking brake.
b. Start engine and move selector lever through each gear posi-
tion. Leave selector lever in “P” position.
c. Check A/T fluid level with engine idling.
d. Remove A/T fluid level gauge and wipe clean with lint-free cloth.
CAUTION:
When wiping the A/T fluid level gauge, always use lint-free
cloth.
e. Re-insert A/T fluid level gauge into A/T fluid charging pipe as far
as it will go.
CAUTION:
Firmly fix the A/T fluid level gauge to the A/T fluid charging
pipe using the stopper attached.
f. Remove A/T fluid level gauge and note reading. If reading is at
low side of range, add A/T fluid to the A/T fluid charging pipe.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill.
4. Drive vehicle for approximately 5 minutes.
5. Re-check A/T fluid level at A/T fluid temperatures of 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F) using “HOT” range on A/T
fluid level gauge.
CAUTION:
• When wiping the A/T fluid level gauge, always use lint-free cloth.
• Firmly fix the A/T fluid level gauge to the A/T fluid charging pipe using the stopper attached.
6. Check A/T fluid condition and make any necessary repairs. Refer to AT-48, "
Inspections Before Trouble
Diagnosis" . If the A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.), or if the A/T is repaired,
overhauled, or replaced, inspect and clean the A/T fluid cooler mounted in the radiator. Refer to AT-16, "
A/
T Fluid Cooler Cleaning" .
7. Install the removed A/T fluid level gauge into the A/T fluid charging pipe.
CAUTION:
Firmly fix the A/T fluid level gauge to the A/T fluid charging pipe using the stopper attached.

• Allow components stored in cool areas to warm to working area temperature before removing seal
caps. This prevents condensation from forming inside A/C components.
• Thoroughly remove moisture from the refrigeration system before charging the refrigerant.
• Always replace used O-rings.
• When connecting tube, apply the specified A/C oil to circle of the O-rings as shown. Be careful not to
apply oil to threaded portion. Refer to MTC-88, "
Oil".
• O-ring must be closely attached to dented portion of tube.
• When replacing the O-ring, be careful not to damage O-ring and tube.
• Connect tube until you hear it click, then tighten the nut or bolt by hand until snug. Make sure that
the O-ring is installed to tube correctly.
• After connecting line, perform leak test and make sure that there is no leakage from connections.
When the refrigerant leaking point is found, disconnect that line and replace the O-ring. Then tighten
connections of seal seat to the specified torque.
Precaution for Service of CompressorINFOID:0000000001704280
•Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
•When the compressor is removed, store it in the same position as it is when mounted on the car.
•When replacing or repairing compressor, follow “Maintenance of Oil Quantity in Compressor”
exactly. Refer to MTC-16, "
Maintenance of Oil Quantity in Compressor" .
•Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. If the surface is contaminated, with oil, wipe
it off by using a clean waste cloth moistened with thinner.
•After compressor service operation, turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in both
directions. This will equally distribute oil inside the compressor. After the compressor is installed,
let the engine idle and operate the compressor for one hour.
•After replacing the compressor magnet clutch, apply voltage to the new one and check for usual
operation.
Precaution for Service EquipmentINFOID:0000000001704281
RECOVERY/RECYCLING EQUIPMENT
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for machine operation and machine maintenance. Never
introduce any refrigerant other than that specified into the machine.

Maintenance of Oil Quantity in CompressorINFOID:0000000001704289
The oil in the compressor circulates through the system with the refrigerant. Add oil to compressor when
replacing any component or after a large refrigerant leakage occurred. It is important to maintain the specified
amount.
If oil quantity is not maintained properly, the following malfunctions may result:
• Lack of oil: May lead to a seized compressor.
• Excessive oil: Inadequate cooling (thermal exchange interference)
OIL
OIL RETURN OPERATION
Adjust the oil quantity according to the test group shown below.
1.CHECK OIL RETURN OPERATION
Can oil return operation be performed?
• A/C system works properly.
• There is no evidence of a large amount of oil leakage.
CAUTION:
If excessive oil leakage is noted, do not perform the oil return operation.

OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> GO TO 3.
2.PERFORM OIL RETURN OPERATION, PROCEEDING AS FOLLOWS
1. Start engine, and set the following conditions:
- Engine speed: Idling to 1,200 rpm
- A/C blower switch: ON
- Blower speed: Max. position
- Temp. control: Optional [Set so that intake air temperature is 25° to 30°C (77° to 86° F)].
- Intake position: Recirculation (REC)
2. Perform oil return operation for about 10 minutes.
3. Stop engine.
>> GO TO 3.
3.CHECK REPLACEMENT PART
Should the compressor be replaced?
YES >> GO TO "OIL ADJUSTING PROCEDURE FOR COMPRESSOR REPLACEMENT".
NO >> GO TO "OIL ADJUSTING PROCEDURE FOR COMPONENTS REPLACEMENT EXCEPT COM-
PRESSOR".

1.CONFIRM SYMPTOM BY PERFORMING OPERATIONAL CHECK - TEMPERATURE DECREASE
1. Turn temperature control dial clockwise to maximum heat position.
2. Check for hot air at discharge air outlets.
Can the symptom be duplicated?

NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK FOR ANY SYMPTOMS
Perform a complete operational check for any symptoms. Refer to MTC-30, "
Operational Check" .
Does another symptom exist?
YES >> Refer to MTC-22, "How to Perform Trouble Diagnosis for Quick and Accurate Repair" .
NO >> System OK.
3.CHECK FOR SERVICE BULLETINS
Check for any service bulletins.

.
2. Check hoses for leaks or kinks.
3. Check Radiator cap. Refer to CO-13, "
Checking Radiator Cap" .

Gauge indication Refrigerant cycle Probable cause Corrective action
Low-pressure side becomes nega-
tive.
Liquid tank or front/rear side of
expansion valve’s pipe is frost-
ed or dewed.High-pressure side is closed
and refrigerant does not flow.
↓
Expansion valve or liquid tank
is frosted.Leave the system at rest until
no frost is present. Start it
again to check whether or not
the malfunction is caused by
water or foreign particles.
• If water is the cause, initially
cooling is okay. Then the wa-
ter freezes causing a block-
age. Drain water from
refrigerant or replace refrig-
erant.
• If due to foreign particles, re-
move expansion valve and
remove the particles with dry
and compressed air (not
shop air).
• If either of the above meth-
ods cannot correct the mal-
function, replace expansion
valve.
• Replace liquid tank.
• Check oil for contamination.
