 Page 7 of 54
If the Micro 570 recommends "REPLACE BATTERY", replace the battery and recheck the charging
system.

[Charge and Retest method after battery charge]

Battery charge
Set battery charger to ‘Auto Mode’ (The Mode that charging current drops as the battery charges.) and charge battery until charging current
down close to zero or the charger alerts you with an alarm when charge is complete.
(Minimum charging time recommended: More than 3 hours with Auto Mode that explained above)
A. If battery is not fully charged, battery surface voltage will be high while the amount of current charged (CCA) in battery is low. If you
measure the battery under this condition, tester may misjudge that battery sulfation occurred because the amount of current in battery is
too low in comparison with battery voltage.
* Surface voltage: When battery is charged electrolyte temperature increases and chemical reaction become active resulting in an
excessive increase of battery voltage.
It is known that it takes approximate one day to subside this increased surface voltage completely.
Battery Test after charge
Do not test battery right after the charge. Test battery after battery surface voltage has subsided as instructed in the following procedure.
(1) When battery charge is complete, install the battery in the vehicle.
(2) Put IG key to ON position and turn on head lamp with low beam, and wait 5 minutes. (Discharge for 5 minutes)
(3) Turn off the head lamp and IG key, and wait 5 minutes. (Waiting for 5 minutes)
(4) Remove +, - cable from the battery and test battery.

Whenever filing a claim for battery, the print out of the battery test results must be attached.

Engine Electrical System

Descrition
Ignition timing is controlled by the electronic control ignition timing system. The standard reference ignition timing data for the engine operating
conditions are preprogrammed in the memory of the ECM (Engine Control Module).
The engine operating conditions (speed, load, warm-up condition, etc.) are detected by the various sensors. Based on these sensor signals and
the ignition timing data, signals to interrupt the primary current are sent to the ECM. The ignition coil is activated, and timing is controlled.

2. Close all doors except the engine hood, and then lock all doors.
(1) Disconnect the hood switch connector.
(2) Close the trunk lid.
(3) Close the doors.
3. Wait a few minutes until the vehicle’s electrical systems go to sleep mode.

For an accurate measurement of a vehicle parasitic current, all electrical systems should go to sleep mode. (It takes at least one hour or
at most one day.) However, an approximate vehicle parasitic current can be measured after 10~20 minutes.
4. Connect an ammeter in series between the battery (-) terminal and the ground cable, and then disconnect the clamp from the battery (-)
terminal slowly.
 Page 26 of 54
Be careful that the lead wires of an ammeter do not come off from the battery (-) terminal and the ground cable to prevent the battery
from being reset. In case the battery is reset, connect the battery cable again, and then start the engine or turn the ignition switch ON for
more than 10 sec. Repeat the procedure from No. 1.
To prevent the battery from being reset during the inspection,
1) Connect a jump cable between the battery (-) terminal and the ground cable.
2) Disconnect the ground cable from the battery (-) terminal.
3) Connect an ammeter between the battery (-) terminal and the ground cable.
4) After disconnecting the jump cable, read the current value of the ammeter.

5. Read the current value of the ammeter.

A. If the parasitic current is over the limit value, search for abnormal circuit by removing a fuse one by one and checking the parasitic
current.
B. Reconnect the suspected parasitic current draw circuit fuse only and search for suspected unit by removing a component connected with
the circuit one by one until the parasitic draw drops below limit value
Limit value (after 10~20 min.) :Below 50mA

Cleaning
1. Make sure the ignition switch and all accessories are in the OFF position.
2. Disconnect the battery cables (negative first).
3. Remove the battery from the vehicle.

Care should be taken in the event the battery case is cracked or leaking, to protect your skin from the electrolyte.
Heavy rubber gloves (not the household type) should be worn when removing the battery.

4. Inspect the battery tray for damage caused by the loss of electrolyte. If acid damage is present, it will be necessary to clean the area with a
solution of clean warm water and baking soda. Scrub the area with a stiff brush and wipe off with a cloth moistened with baking soda and
water.
5. Clean the top of the battery with the same solution as described above.
6. Inspect the battery case and cover for cracks. If cracks are present, the battery must be replaced.
7. Clean the battery posts with a suitable battery post tool.
8. Clean the inside surface of the terminal clamps with a suitable battery cleaning tool. Replace damaged or frayed cables and broken terminal
clamps.

When batteries are being charged, an explosive gas forms beneath the cover of each cell. Do not smoke near batteries being charged
or which have recently been charged. Do not break live circuit at the terminals of batteries being charged.
A spark will occur when the circuit is broken. Keep open flames away from battery.
Engine Electrical System

Description
Vehicles have many control units that use more electricity. These units control their own system based on information from diverse sensors. It is
important to have a stable power supply as there diverse sensors giving a variety of information. Battery sensor is mounted on battery (-)
terminal. It transmits battery voltage, current, temperature information to ECM. ECM controls generating voltage by duty cycle based on these
signals.

When battery sensor signal fault occurs, inspect the vehicle parasitic draw in advance after inspecting the sensor because the sensor will
behave abnormally when the parasitic draw is more than 100mA. (Refer to vehicle parasitic current inspection)

Perform the following process after replace the battery sensor.

- Ignition switch ON/OFF.
- Park the vehicle about 4 hours.
- After 4 hours later, check the SOC (State of charge) of battery using GDS.

For the vehicle equipped with a battery sensor, be careful not to damage the battery sensor when the battery is replaced or recharged.
1. When replacing the battery, it should be same one (type, capacity and brand) that is originally installed on your vehicle. If a battery of a
different type is replaced, the battery sensor may recognize the battery to be abnormal.
2. When installing the ground cable on the negative post of battery, tighten the clamp with specified torque of 4.0~6.0N.m (0.4~0.6kgf.m,
3.0~4.4lb-ft). An excessive tightening torque can damage the PCB internal circuit and the battery terminal.
3. When recharging the battery, ground the negative terminal of the booster battery to the vehicle body.
Engine Electrical System

Description
The starting system includes the battery, starter, solenoid switch, ignition switch, inhibitor switch (A/T), ignition lock switch, connection wires and
the battery cable.
When the ignition key is turned to the start position, current flows and energizes the starter motor's solenoid coil.
The solenoid plunger and clutch shift lever are activated, and the clutch pinion engages the ring gear.
The contacts close and the starter motor cranks. In order to prevent damage caused by excessive rotation of the starter armature when the
engine starts, the clutch pinion gear overruns.

Troubleshooting Starter Circuit

The battery must be in good condition and fully charged.

1. Disconnect the fuel pump connector
2. With the shift lever in N or P (A/T) or clutch pedal pressed (M/T), turn the ignition switch to "START"
If the starter normally cranks the engine, starting system is OK. If the starter will not crank the engine at all, go to next step.
If it won't disengage from the ring gear when you release key, check for the following until you find the cause.
A. Solenoid plunger and switch malfunction.
B. Dirty pinion gear or damaged overrunning clutch.
3. Check the battery condition. Check electrical connections at the battery, battery negative cable connected to the body, engine ground cables,
and the starter for looseness and corrosion. Then try starting the engine again.
If the starter cranks the engine normally, repairing the loose connection repaired the problem. The starting system is now OK.
If the starter still does not crank the engine, go to next step.
4. Disconnect the connector from the S-terminal of solenoid. Connect a jumper wire from the B-terminal of solenoid to the S-terminal of
solenoid.
If the starter cranks the engine, go to next step.
If the starter still does not crank the engine, remove the starter, and repair or replace as necessary.
5. Check the following items in the order listed until you find the open circuit.
A. Check the wire and connectors between the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box and the ignition switch, and between the driver's under-
dash fuse/relay box and the starter.
B. Check the ignition switch (Refer to ignition system in BE Group).
C. Check the transaxle range switch connector or ignition lock switch connector.
D. Inspect the starter relay.

Starter Solenoid Test

1. Disconnect the field coil wire from the M-terminal of solenoid switch.
2. Connect the battery as shown. If the starter pinion pops out (engages), it is working properly. To avoid damaging the starter, do not leave the
battery connected for more than 10 seconds.

Cruise Control
Cruise control system is engaged by the "ON/OFF" main switch located on right of steering wheel column. The system has the capability to
cruise, coast, resume speed, and accelerate, and raise "tab-up" or lower "tab-down" set speed.
It also has a safety interrupt, engaged upon depressing brake or shifting select lever.
The ECM is the control module for this system.
The main components of cruise control system are mode control switches, transaxle range switch, brake switch, vehicle speed sensor, ECM and
ETS motor that connect throttle body.
The ECM contains a low speed limit which will prevent system engagement below a minimum speed of 40km/h (25mph).
The operation of the controller is controlled by mode control switches located on steering wheel.
Transaxle range switch and brake switch are provided to disengage the cruise control system. When the brake pedal is depressed or select
lever shifted, the cruise control system is electrically disengaged and the throttle is returned to the idle position.
Cruise main switch
Cruise control system is engaged by pressing the "ON/OFF" push button. Releasing the "ON/OFF" push button will release throttle, clears cruise
memory speed, and puts vehicle in a non-cruise mode.
Coast/Set switch
COAST/SET switch located on right of steering wheel column has two positions - "Normal" and "Depressed". The set position - With
COAST/SET switch depressed and then released the cruise speed will be set at the speed the vehicle was going when COAST/SET switch was
released. The coast position - With COAST/SET switch fully depressed, driver can lower cruise speed. To decrease cruise speed, COAST/SET
switch is held in, disengaging cruise control system. When vehicle has slowed to required cruise speed, releasing COAST/SET switch will re-
engage system at new selected speed.
The tab down - To lower vehicle speed, cruise must be engaged and operating. Tab down is done by quickly pressing and releasing
COAST/SET switch. Do not hold COAST/SET switch in depressed position.
Tab down is a function in which vehicle speed is decrease by 1 mph (1.6km/h)
Resume/Accel switch
RES/ACCEL switch located on right of steering wheel column has two positions - "Normal" and "Depressed".
The resume position - With RES/ACCEL switch depressed and then release, this switch also returns cruise control operation to last speed
(Which is temporarily disengaged by Cancel switch or Brake pedal), setting when momentarily operating RES/ACCEL switch by constant
acceleration.
The accel position - With RES/ACCEL switch depressed and held in, disengaging cruise control system, when vehicle has accelerated to
required cruise speed, releasing RES/ACCEL switch will re-engage speed at new selected speed.
The tab up - To increase vehicle speed, the cruise must be engaged and operating.
Tab up is done by quickly pressing and releasing RES/ACCEL switch less than 0.5 second. Do not hold RES/ACCEL switch in depressed
position. Tab up is a function in which cruise speed can be increased by 1mph (1.6km/h).
Cancel switch
Cruise control system is temporarily disengaged by pressing "CANCEL" switch.
Cruise speed canceled by this switch will be recovered by RES/ACCEL switch

Engine Electrical System

Smart Cruise Control

Be careful when driving the vehicle using the smart cruise control system as follows.

• The smart cruise control system may have limits to detect distance to the vehicle ahead due to road and traffic conditions.
• On curves or inclines/declines
- On curves or inclines/declines, the smart cruise control system may not detect a moving vehicle in your lane, and then your vehicle may
accelerate to the set speed directly. Also, the vehicle speed may slow down abruptly when the vehicle ahead is recognized. Select the
appropriate set speed on curves or inclines/declines and control the vehicle speed by applying the brake pedal if necessary.
- Your vehicle speed can be reduced due to a vehicle in the adjacent lane. Apply the accelerator pedal and select the appropriate set
speed. Check to be sure that the road conditions permit.
 Page 44 of 54

• Lane changing
- A vehicle which moves into your lane from an adjacent lane cannot be recognized by the sensor until it is in the sensor's detection
range.
- If the vehicle which moves into your lane is slower than your vehicle, the speed may decrease to maintain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.
- If the vehicle which moves into your lane is faster than your vehicle, your vehicle will maintain the selected speed even the vehicle is in
the sensor's detection range.

• Vehicle recognition
- Small vehicles, such as motorcycles or bicycles, ahead in your lane may not be recognized by the sensor as the vehicles are out the
detection of range of the sensor. Vehicles offset to one side also may not be recognized by the sensor.

• If the smart cruise control is left on (CRUISE indicator light ON), the smart cruise control can be switched on accidentally. Keep the
smart cruise control system off (CRUISE indicator light OFF) when the smart cruise control is not in use, to avoid inadvertently setting a
speed.
• Observe a regulation speed on road when setting the cruise speed.
•
 Page 45 of 54
Use the smart cruise control system only when traveling on open highways in good weather. Do not use the smart cruise control when it
may not be safe to keep the car at a constant speed, for instance, driving in heavy or varying traffic, or on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-
covered) or winding roads or over 6% up-hill or down-hill roads.
• Pay particular attention to the driving conditions whenever using the smart cruise control system.
• The vehicle cannot be stopped by using the smart cruise control system. If emergency stop is necessary, you should apply the brakes.
• Keep the safety distance according to road conditions and vehicle speed. If the following distance is too close at a high speed driving, it
is dangerous.
• The smart cruise control system can not recognize a stopped vehicle, pedestrians or an oncoming vehicle. Always look ahead
cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations from occurring.
• The smart cruise control system is not a substitute for safe driving practices but a supplementary function only. It is the responsibility of
the driver to always check the speed and the distance to the vehicle ahead.
• In front of you, vehicles moving with a frequent lane change may cause a delay in the system's reaction or may cause the system to
react to a vehicle actually in adjacent lane. Always look ahead cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations from occurring.

Engine Electrical System

Description
The smart cruise control system allows a driver to program the vehicle to control the speed and following distance detecting the vehicle ahead
without depressing the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal.
1. Cruise speed control: The vehicle maintains the selected speed if there are not vehicles ahead.
2. Retardation control: The vehicle decelerates if a vehicle ahead is detected.
3. Following distance control: The vehicle maintains the selected following distance.
4. Acceleration control: The vehicle accelerates to the selected speed if a vehicle ahead is not detected.
 Page 46 of 54

5. Control on curves
(1) The sensor may not detect a vehicle ahead or may detect a vehicle on other lanes because the detection range of the sensor is limited.
(2) On curves, if the vehicle equipped the SCC is driving at high speed, the vehicle can slip outside. Therefore reduce the speed on curves
even there is not a vehicle ahead. (There is no brake control by SCC.)
(3) While the vehicle follows a vehicle ahead on straight road, if the vehicle ahead enters on curve, the vehicle equipped the SCC may
accelerate to follow the vehicle ahead.
(4) On curves, if a vehicle ahead followed is out of range, the vehicle does not accelerate to the set speed and maintain the following speed
to prevent from accelerating and decelerating repeatedly. (If the vehicle equipped the SCC changes the lane or apply the accelerator
pedal, the vehicle will accelerate.)
6. Warning alarm
If the vehicle equipped the SCC decelerates because a vehicle ahead decelerates or moves into your lane, the warning will operate.
(1) In case that the vehicle equipped with SCC is able to decelerate properly by the system – No warning
(2) In case that the vehicle equipped with SCC is not able to decelerate properly by the system – Indicator in the cluster will blink and the
warning buzzer will sound. (The warning and deceleration by the system will go on until the brake pedal is applied.)
7. Accelerating by driver
Even the vehicle is being decelerated by the SCC system, the vehicle can be accelerated by applying the accelerator pedal. If the vehicle is
accelerated above the set speed, the indicator in the cluster will blink.

• Smart cruise control operating conditions

- Vehicle speed at more than approximately 10km/h (6.2mph) or less than approximately 180km/h (111.8mph)

Smart Cruise Control(SCC) Sensor Alignment

The objective of the alignment is to ensure correct SCC performance. In order for the sensor to perform correctly, the sensor must be aligned
correctly. The sensor alignment has major impact on road estimation, lane prediction, and target processing. When the sensor is misaligned, the
performance of SCC cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, when the sensor is reinstalled or a new sensor is installed on a vehicle, the sensor shall
be aligned by service personnel.

The sensor must be aligned when;

• The sensor is reinstalled after removing.
• A new sensor is installed on a vehicle.
• The sensor or nearby parts are impacted in a collision.
• The sensor can not recognize a vehicle ahead.

Preparation for sensor alignment:

 Page 50 of 54
• Remove heavy objects, such as luggage in the trunk, from the vehicle.
• Adjust the tire pressure properly.
• Check wheel alignment.
• If possible, adjust the vehicle’s height to the normal position.

Sensor Alignment Procedure (Parking Mode)

The SCC sensor can be aligned using a metal plate reflector.
The ignition switch should be ON for the alignment procedure.
1. Put the rear wheel of the vehicle on the dynamometer roll.

2. Rotate the rear wheel (approximately three revolutions) to make the rear axis be parallel to dynamometer axis. Make sure the steering wheel
is straight ahead to align the front wheels to the vehicle motion vector.

3. Put the metal plate reflector (09964-3N200) on the front of the sensor so the reflector is perpendicular to the vehicle motion vector.

• The reflector should be perpendicular to the floor. Use the bubble level on the reflector.
• Make sure that there is no other material except the reflector in a space around the reflector.
- Between the vehicle and reflector
- Within 1.0m (3.28ft) from the back of the reflector
- Within 0.5m (1.64ft) from the left of right side of the reflector
- Within 1.0m (3.28ft) from the top of the reflector
4. Connect the GDS to the vehicle. Select the model and the system and click the “Vehicle S/W Management”.
 Page 51 of 54

Erase the DTC code (C1620) before the sensor alignment procedure.
5. Select “Parking Mode” to start sensor alignment.

6. Check the alignment (0%) start on the GDS. The progress of the alignment is displayed on the GDS.

7. Make sure that the sensor alignment is completed (100%).

8. If the sensor alignment fails, delete the DTC code (C1620) and then repeat the above procedure.

Sensor Alignment Procedure (Driving Mode)

The SCC sensor can be aligned by driving the vehicle. The alignment is based on moving and stationary targets in front of the sensor.
1. Connect the GDS to the vehicle. Select the model and the system and click the “Vehicle S/W Management”.

Erase the DTC code (C1620) before the sensor alignment procedure.
2. Select “Driving Mode” to start sensor alignment.

3. Drive the vehicle after checking the alignment (0%) start on the GDS. The progress of the alignment is displayed on the GDS.
 Page 52 of 54

The sensor alignment will last about 10~15 minutes. Depending on the traffic situation or road condition, the duration of the procedure
can shorten or extend.
To complete the alignment in minimum time, if it is possible, drive the vehicle considering the driving/road conditions as follows.
• To shorten the duration of the alignment;
- Drive at more than 50km/h (31.1mph).
- Drive on a straight road without any curve and incline.
- Drive on a thick and wide asphalt road.
- Drive on a road with repetitive static targets.
- Drive behind a passenger car (not SUV, bus or truck) at a distance of about 30~90m (98.4~295.2ft).
- Drive on a dry and good road without rain and snow.
• The alignment process can be interrupted when the following condition exists;
- When the vehicle encounter curves with a radius smaller than 100m (328.0ft).
- When the vehicle accelerates/decelerates more than 2m/s² (6.6ft/s²).
- When the vehicle speed is lower than 10km/h (6.2mph).
- When the vehicle is in a tunnel or under pass.
- When there are excessive steering wheel actions such as turning to the right or left and sudden lane change.

Be careful when driving the vehicle for sensor alignment as follows;

• Observe a regulation speed on the road.
• Do not stick to the previous driving/road conditions excessively to shorten the duration of the alignment and drive the vehicle safely
considering traffic situations.
• When driving the vehicle, do not operate the GDS and look at the GDS display for a long time. You can lose your steering control.
• Operate the GDS only when the vehicle stops.
4. Make sure that the sensor alignment is completed (100%).

5. If the sensor alignment fails, delete the DTC code (C1620) and then repeat the above procedure.
