2. OVERVIEW
The Immobilizer System provides an additional theft deterrent to the vehicle in which it is installed and
prevents it from being started by unauthorized persons. The transponder integrated in the key and the
engine control unit has the same code. When the ignition key with the integrated transponder is turned to
the ON position, the ECU (Engine Control Unit) checks the crypto code of the key and, if correct, allows
your vehicle to start the engine.

2. CONFIGURATION
1) RPM Gauge
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute. Multiply 1,000 to the current number,
then it will be the current number of engine revolutions.
Under the normal engine operating temperature, the proper idling speed is 700 ~ 800 rpm. The red zone
(danger rpm range) starts from 4,500 rpm.
Connect the tachometer for tune-up test and start the engine.
Eliminate the hysteresis by tapping the tachometer.
Compare the values on the tester and tachometer and replace the tachometer if the tolerance is
excessive. 1.
2.
3.
If the tachometer (engine rpm gauge) pointer vibrates or stops moving at a certain range, or abnormal
noises are heard from the tachometer, the tachometer may have a malfunction. If you have reason to
suspect that the reading from the tachometer differs from the actual engine speed (rpm), connect a
diagnostic device and compare the value on tachometer with the reading from the diagnostic device.

ABS Warning Light
This warning light comes on
when the ignition switch is turned
to "ON" position and should go
out if the system is normal.
The vehicle with ABS performs
self-diagnosis. During this
diagnosis, brake pedal vibration
and noise may be apparent
when the driving motors
discharges the hydraulic
pressure from the internal
hydraulic device.4WD IndicatorLow Fuel Level

Auto Cruise Control
Indicator
Operating the cruise
control switch turns on
the indicator lamp to
indicate the cruise
control system is
activated.
Water Separator Warning Light
This lamp comes on to warn the driver of
water in the fuel tank which causes the loss
of engine power. When a certain amount of
water is accumulated, the lamp comes on
and a chime sounds.
Engine CHECK Warning Light
This warning light comes on when the
ignition switch is turned to "ON"
position and should go out if the
system related to engine control is
normal.

ignition switch is turned on and go off when
the engine is started.
If this light doesn't go off after engine starting,
it means there is a malfunction in the system.
Engine Hood Open Warning Light
When the engine hood is open, this light
comes on to inform the driver.

3. CAUTIONS ON RAIN SENSOR
When the wiper switch is in the AUTO position, the wiper will operate for 1 cycle if the initial engine
start is made. This may cause the wiper blades to wear prematurely. Therefore, other than rainy days,
set the switch to the OFF position. Especially during the winter time, check if the wiper blades are not
frozen to the windshield.
Operating the wiper with the blades frozen can damage the wiper motor.
If you operate the wipers when the windshield is dry without spraying washer fluid, the windshield can
be scratched and the wiper blades can wear prematurely. Use the wiper with the washer fluid when
the windshield is dry.
When it does not rain, turn the wiper switch to the OFF position.
Turn the wiper switch to the OFF position before any car wash to avoid unwanted operation of the
wipers. -
-
-
-
When cleaning the windshield over the sensor with damp clothes, the wiper may operate suddenly. It
could cause serious injury. Make sure to place the wiper switch to the OFF position and ignition
switch OFF when not in use.
Irregular operation (abrupt operation) ▶
Check if the sensor is off the position.
Check if the rain sensor cover is securely installed.
Check if the customer is familiar to how to control the wiper sensitivity.
Check if the wiper sensitivity control is set to the FAST side (step 5).
Check the wiper blade for wear.
If the wiper blade cannot wipe the glass uniformly and clearly, it may cause the rain sensor to work
irregularly. Therefore, in this case, replace the wiper blade with a new one. -

3) Transmission Control Monitoring System
TCU monitors all input and output signals to identify possible failures. If a fault is detected, TCU activates
<009b008f008c0047009a0088008d008c009b00a0004700940096008b008c0047009b009600470092008c008c00970047009b008f008c0047008b00990090009d008c009902c5009a0047009a0088008d008c009b00a0004700880095008b0047009b008f00

Monitoring the Supply Voltage ▶
Monitoring the Supply Voltage to Solenoid ▶
Monitoring the Gear Ratio ▶
Monitoring the Torque Converter ▶ If the battery voltage is too high or too low, the TCU sets the DTC.
TCU monitors the circuits for open or short to ground or supply. The monitoring function evaluates the
voltage characteristics while the switch is ON.
TCU monitors the gear is engaged properly in the allowed time.
TCU checks if the torque converter can be locked up properly. If it is failed, TCU releases the torque
converter clutch to activate the fail-safe operation.
4) Shift Energy Management
This function involves reducing or increasing the engine output torque during shifting. This reduces the
energy which is dissipated in the friction elements of the transmission during up-shift. This is done by
reducing the engine torque during the gear ratio change without interrupting the tractive drive.
This function is used for:
Increasing the life span of transmission by shortening the slipping time
Improving the shift comfort by reducing the step changes due to gearshift
Transferring a higher engine power -
-
-
Real-time control of engine torque is required to maintain the proper shift operations and the durability of
transmission. TCU controls the engine torque during the gearshift by synchronizing the operation of
transmission clutches.
