Service Notice or Precautions for Clutch INFOID:0000000001180751 F

CAUTION:
• Recommended clutch fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”. Refer to MA-22, "Fluids and Lubricants".
G
• Never reuse drained clutch fluid.
• Never splash clutch fluid on painted areas.
• Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. It will ruin the rubber parts of the hydraulic sys-
tem. H
• If transaxle assembly is removed from the vehicle, always replace CSC (Concentric Slave Cylinder).
Return CSC insert to original position to remove transaxle assembly. Dust on clutch disc sliding
parts may damage seal of CSC and may cause clutch fluid leakage. I
• Never disassemble master cylinder and CSC.
WARNING:
After cleaning clutch disc, wipe it with a dust collector. Never use compressed air.

INSPECTION
1. Check to see if the master cylinder rod end moves freely. It C
should not be bound by the clutch pedal.
• If the rod end does not move freely, remove the rod end and
check for deformation or damage on the rod end. Leave the
CL
rod end removed for step 2.
2. Check the clutch pedal stroke for free range of movement.
a. With the master cylinder rod end removed, manually move the E
clutch pedal up and down to determine if it moves freely.
b. If any sticking is noted, replace the clutch pedal assembly.
Reverify that the master cylinder rod end moves freely.
PCIB1491E F
3. Inspect the ASCD clutch switch position. (With ASCD)
a. If the rod end does not move freely, check that the ASCD clutch switch is not applying pressure to the
clutch pedal causing the rod end to bind. To adjust, disconnect the ASCD clutch switch electrical connec-
tor and turn the ASCD clutch switch. G
b. Connect the ASCD clutch switch electrical connector.
4. Check the clutch hydraulic system components (master cylinder assembly, CSC) for sticking or binding.
H
a. If any sticking or binding is noted, repair or replace the related parts as necessary.
b. If any hydraulic system repair was necessary, bleed the clutch hydraulic system. Refer to CL-6, "Air
Bleeding Procedure".
I
NOTE:
Do not use a vacuum assist or any other type of power bleeder on this system. Use of a vacuum assist or
power bleeder will not purge all of the air from the system.
J
ADJUSTMENT

CLUTCH FLUID LEVEL

• Check that the fluid level in the reservoir tank is within the specified
range (MAX – MIN lines).
• Visually check for any clutch fluid leakage around the reservoir
tank.
• Check the clutch system for any leakage if the fluid level is
extremely low (lower than MIN).

Air Bleeding Procedure INFOID:0000000001180756

NOTE:
Do not use a vacuum assist or any other type of power bleeder on this system. Use of a vacuum assist or
power bleeder will not purge all the air from the system.
CAUTION:
• Monitor clutch fluid level in reservoir tank to make sure it does not empty.
• Keep painted surface on the body or other parts free of clutch fluid. If it spills, wipe up immediately
and wash the affected area with water.
• Bleed the air of bleeding connector (1).
1. Fill reservoir tank with new clutch fluid.
2. Connect a transparent vinyl hose to air bleeder of bleeding con-
nector.
3. “Depress” and “release” the clutch pedal slowly and fully 15
times at an interval of 2 to 3 seconds and release the clutch
pedal.
