6) Cooling Fan Control
(1) Overview of Cooling Fan and A/C Compressor
The cooling system maintains the engine temperature at an efficient level during all engine operating
conditions. The water pump draws the coolant from the radiator. The coolant then circulates through
water jackets in the engine block, the intake manifold, and the cylinder head. When the coolant reaches
the operating temperature of the thermostat, the thermostat opens. The coolant then goes back to the
radiator where it cools. The heat from automatic transaxle is also cooled down through the radiator by
circulating the oil through the oil pump. There are two cooling fans (180W+120W) in G20DF engine. ECU
controls the electric cooling fans with three cooling fan relays to improve the engine torque and air
conditioning performance.

Engine starting
When the START/STOP button is pressed with the brake pedal applied and gear selector lever in P or
N position, the SKM performs the immobilizer verification and sends the engine START request signal
to the EMS if a normal coded smart key is found.
When the .engine start request signal from the START/STOP switch is received, the SKM sends the
start request signal through the P-CAN and the vehicle power status signal to the BCM through the B-
CAN.
The SKM cuts the power for IGN2 and ACC relays while the engine is cranking as cutting the electric
load is necessary.
The SKM receives the engine start status signal from the EMS (ECU) through the P-CAN. 1.

ABS/ESPVehicle speed signal (wheel speed sensor on each wheel)
The SKM turns on the ACC/IGN2 relays after the engine cranking and sends the signal for IGN after
starting to the BCM through the B-CAN.
When the START/STOP button is pressed and engine cranking request1 signal is sent, the EMS
(ECU) cranks the engine after checking the engine warming up. If the engine cranking request2
signal is sent, the EMS cranks the engine without checking the engine warming up. 5.

Engine cranking request1
(engine start after
warming up)When the START/STOP button is pressed briefly under the start
conditions, the vehicle starts to warming up and then the engine is started
after a certain amount of time (warming up indicator ON to OFF).
Engine cranking request2
(engine start without
warming up)When the START/STOP switch is pressed once again while the engine
cranking request1 signal is sent, the engine is started (regardless of
warming up indicator)
It can be delayed by several seconds according to the engine
coolant temperature.
Starting engine while driving 7.
The engine start request signal is sent when the START/STOP switch is pressed, provided that the
vehicle speed is less than 10 Km/h or no vehicle speed signal is input, the gear selector lever is in
N position and the brake switch is ON with IGN ON (30 sec. verification is not required).
The engine start request signal is sent regardless of the brake signal when the START/STOP
switch is pressed, provided that the vehicle speed is 10 Km/h or more and the gear selector lever is
in N position with IGN ON (30 sec. verification is not required). -

Automatic Manual
1) Overview
3. INTEGRATED INSTRUMENT PANEL SWITCH
It is mounted to the instrument panel and combined with the cooler; which provides cooling and
dehumidification by repeating the cycles of compression -> condensation -> expansion -> evaporation,
and heater; which controls the heating systemically in the course of circulating the coolant heated by the
engine heat to the heater. This allows the driver to maintain the indoor comfortable conditions throughout
the year.

4) Basic Inspection
(1) Horn operation
Listen for the horn sound when pressing the horn pad on the steering wheel. -
(2) Brake operation
Check if there is any abnormal noise, unusually long braking distance, or uneven braking force. If the
brake warning lamp does not go out even after starting the engien or are flashing during driving,
have the brake system checked immediately.
Check the brake pipes and hoses for connection, oil leak, crack or interference after changing the
position of tires. When replacing the tires, check the brake disc for surface condition and wear.
Check the parking brake cable and brake operation. Shorten the checking interval if the parking
brake is used frequently. -
-
-
(3) Exhaust system
Be aware to any changes in sound or smell from the exhaust system. These may be caused by leak or
overheat. Have the exhaust system checked and repaired immediately.
Inspect the exhaust system including catalytic converter. Inspect all the components and body frame
near the exhaust system. -
-
(4) Tires
Unusual vibration of the steering wheel and seats or pulling to one side on the straight and level roads
may indicates the uneven tire inflation pressure or poor wheel balance. -
(5) Steering and suspension system
Inspect the front and rear suspension and the steering system for damage, looseness or missing
parts, signs of wear or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering line and the hoses for
connection, leak, crack and chafing. Inspect the drive axle boot and seals for damage, tear or leak.
Replace or repair the system if necessary. -
(6) Engine oil
Check the oil level when the engine is still warm and add the specified engine oil if necessary. -
(7) Coolant
Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir, coolant conditions (contamination, foreign material),
and hoses for damage and leak. Replace or add the Ssangyong genuine coolant, if needed. -
(8) Engine drive belt
Check all drive belts on the engine for wear, crack and looseness. Retighten or replace the belt, if
needed. -

5. TRANSAXLE ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
1) General Information
The transmission control unit (TCU) and its input/output network control the following transmission
operations:
Shift timing
Line pressure
Clutch pressure (shift feel)
Torque converter clutch -
-
-
-
also uses these signals when determining transaxle operating strategy. Using all of these input signals,
the TCU can determine when the time and conditions are right for a shift, or when to apply or release the
torque converter clutch. It will also determine the pressure needed to optimise shift feel. To accomplish
this, the TCU operates six variable bleed control solenoids and four on/off solenoids to control transaxle
operation.
2) TCU (Transmission Control Unit)
The transaxle control unit (TCU) is mounted
under the driver's seat and controls the operation
of the transaxle.
The TCU is activated and deactivated by the
ignition power supply and is connected to the
transaxle link harness by a 26 pin connector. The
TCU processes information received from internal
sensors and signals received across the CAN
bus in analogue and digital forms such as:
Transaxle input speed
Transaxle output speed
Accelerator pedal position
Gear selector position
Engine torque
Engine speed
Transaxle fluid temperature
Brake pedal status
Engine oil temperature
Engine coolant temperature
Ambient air temperature
Barometric pressure -

TCU is able to perform default action and inform the driver of the problem through the instrument cluster
warning lights. Detailed information is available via trouble codes which can be read with the service tool.

1) Exterior Layout
Liquid and suction pipe
The high/low-pressure A/C refrigerant flows
through this pipe. It is fitted with the refrigerant
pressure sensor.
Electric fan
It cools down the A/C condenser to speed up the
compression for the refrigerant in the condenser.
Refrigerant pressure sensor
It is mounted to the latter part of the right
headlamp. It converts the A/C refrigerant pressure
to voltage value and sends it to the engine ECU.
A/C compressor
It is installed to the left side of the engine
assembly, compresses the low-temperature and
low-pressure coolant and converts it to the high-
temperature and high-pressure coolant. Then, it
sends the coolant to the A/C condenser.

Auto control
When pressing the AUTO switch, "AUTO" is shown on the display and the fan speed and air distribution
mode are adjusted automatically to keep interior temperature to the set temperature. In full AUTO mode,
the FATC receives various signals such as the indoor temperature, ambient temperature, engine coolant
temperature, sunlight, from different sensors to control the A/C compressor, mode actuator, intake
actuator, temp actuator, blower motors, etc. to keep indoor environments fresh.
Max. cooling/heating control (AUTO mode)
If the temperature is set to the lowest level (Lo) or highest level (Hi), the system will go into the maximum
cooling or maximum heating mode regardless of the sensor signals.
