(1) Function
a. ECU Function
ECU receives and analyzes signals from various sensors and then modifies those signals into
permissible voltage levels and analyzes to control respective actuators.
ECU microprocessor calculates injection period and injection timing proper for engine piston speed and
crankshaft angle based on input data and stored specific map to control the engine power and emission
gas.
Output signal of the ECU microprocessor drives pressure control valve to control the rail pressure and
activates injector solenoid valve to control the fuel injection period and injection timing; so controls
various actuators in response to engine changes. Auxiliary function of ECU has adopted to reduce
emission gas, improve fuel economy and enhance safety, comforts and conveniences. For example,
there are EGR, booster pressure control, autocruise (export only) and immobilizer and adopted CAN
communication to exchange data among electrical systems (automatic T/M and brake system) in the
vehicle fluently. And Scanner can be used to diagnose vehicle status and defectives.
Operating temperature range of ECU is normally -40 to +85°C and protected from factors like oil,
water and electromagnetism and there should be no mechanical shocks.
To control the fuel volume precisely under repeated injections, high current should be applied instantly
so there is injector drive circuit in the ECU to generate necessary current during injector drive stages.
Current control circuit divides current applying time (injection time) into full-in-current-phase and hold-
current-phase and then the injectors should work very correctly under every working condition.
b. Control Function
- Controls by operating stages
To make optimum combustion under every operating stage, ECU should calculate proper injection
volume in each stage by considering various factors.
- Starting injection volume control
During initial starting, injecting fuel volume will be calculated by function of temperature and engine
cranking speed. Starting injection continues from when the ignition switch is turned to ignition
position to till the engine reaches to allowable minimum speed.
- Driving mode control
If the vehicle runs normally, fuel injection volume will be calculated by accelerator pedal travel and
engine rpm and the drive map will be used to match the drivers inputs with optimum engine power.
15-12
b. Pilot Injection
Injection before main injection. Consists of 1st and 2nd pilot injection, and Pre-injection
Inject a small amount of fuel before main injection to make the combustion smooth. Also, called as
preliminary injection or ignition injection. This helps to reduce Nox, engine noise and vibration, and to
stabilize the idling.
The injected fuel volume is changed and stopped according to the coolant temperature and intake air
volume.
Stop conditions
- Pilot injection is much earlier than main injection due to higher engine rpm
- Too small injection volume (insufficient injection pressure, insufficient fuel injection volume in main
injection, engine braking)
- System failure (fuel system, engine control system)

2. Main injection
1a.Combustion pressure with pilot injection
2b.Combustion pressure without pilot injection
15-14
c. Main Injection
The power of the vehicle is determined by the main fuel injection volume.
Main injection calculates the fuel volume based on pilot injection. The calculation uses the value for
accelerator pedal position, engine rpm, coolant temperature, intake air temperature, boost pressure,
boost temperature and atmospheric pressure etc.
d. Post Injection
Injection after main injection. Consists of After injection, Post 1, Post 2 injection.
Post injection reduces PM and smoke from exhaust gas. No actual output is generated during these
injections, instead, fuel is injected to the unburned gas after main injection to enable fuel activation. The
PM amount in the emission and smoke can be reduced through these processes.
Only up to 5 types of injections can be performed within 1 cycle. If these 7 injections are all performed,
fuel economy and emission performance becomes poor.
0000-00 15-15
Fuel pressure is controlled by IMV opening according to the calculated value by ECU.
▶ Pressure in the fuel rail is determined according to engine speed and load on the engine.
▶ Open loop determines the current which needs to be sent to the actuator in order to obtain the
flow demanded by the ECU.
▶ Closed loop will correct the current value depending on the difference between the pressure
demand and the pressure measured.
- If the pressure is lower than the demand, current is reduced so that the fuel sent to the high pressure
pump is increased.
- If the pressure is higher than the demand, current is increased so that the fuel sent to the high
pressure pump is reduced.

Hot engine - Retarded to reduce Nox
Cold engine - Advanced to optimize the combustion
2. Atmospheric pressure
Advanced according to the altitude
3. Warming up
Advanced during warming up in cold engine
4. Rail pressure
Retarded to prevent knocking when the rail pressure is high
5. EEGR ratio
Advanced to decrease the cylinder temperature when EGR ratio increases
The pilot injection timing is determined as a function of the engine speed and of the total flow.
The elements are:
- A first correction is made according to the air and coolant temperatures. This correction allows the
pilot injection timing to be adapted to the operating temperature of the engine.
- A second correction is made according to the atmospheric pressure. This correction is used to adapt
the pilot injection timing as a function of the atmospheric pressure and therefore the altitude.
The pulse necessary for the main injection is determined as a function of the engine speed and of the
injected flow.
The elements are:
A switch makes it possible to change over from the supercharge fuel to the total fuel according to the
state of the engine.
- Until the stating phase has finished, the system uses the supercharged fuel.
- Once the engine changes to normal operation, the system uses the total fuel.
The main fuel is obtained by subtracting the pilot injection fuel from the total fuel.
A mapping determines the minimum fuel which can control an injector as a function of the rail pressure.
As soon as the main fuel falls below this value, the fuel demand changes to 0 because in any case the
injector is not capable of injecting the quantity demand.
15-18
B. Driver Demand
The driver demand is the translation of the pedal position into the fuel demand. It is calculated as a
function of the pedal position and of the engine speed. The driver demand is filtered in order to limit the
hesitations caused by rapid changes of the pedal position. A mapping determines the maximum fuel
which can be injected as a function of the driver demand and the rail pressure. Since the flow is
proportional to the injection time and to the square root of the injection pressure, it is necessary to limit
the flow according to the pressure in order to avoid extending the injection for too long into the engine
cycle. The system compares the driver demand with this limit and chooses the smaller of the 2 values.
The driver demand is then corrected according to the coolant temperature. This correction is added to
the driver demand.
0000-00 15-19
- The first module determines the required idle speed according to:
* The operating conditions of the engine (coolant temperature, gear engaged)
* Any activation of the electrical consumers (power steering, air conditioning, others)
* The battery voltage
* The presence of any faults liable to interface with the rail pressure control or the injection control. In
this case, increase the idle speed to prevent the engine from stalling.
- The second module is responsible for providing closed loop control of the engine's idle speed by
adapting the minimum fuel according to the difference between the required idle speed and the
engine speed.
D. Flow Limitation
The flow limitation strategy is based on the following strategies:
- The flow limitation depending on the filling of the engine with air is determined according to the
engine speed and the air flow. This limitation allows smoke emissions to be reduced during
stabilized running.
- The flow limitation depending on the atmospheric pressure is determined according to the engine
speed and the atmospheric pressure. It allows smoke emissions to be reduced when driving at
altitude.
- The full load flow curve is determined according to the gear engaged and the engine speed. It
allows the maximum torque delivered by the engine to be limited.
- A performance limitation is introduced if faults liable to upset the rail pressure control or the
injection control are detected by the system. In this case, and depending on the gravity of the fault,
the system activates:
Reduced fuel logic 1: Guarantees 75 % of the performance without limiting the engine speed.
Reduced fuel logic 2: Guarantees 50 % of the performance with the engine speed limited to
3,000 rpm.
Reduce fuel logic 3: Limits the engine speed to 2,000 rpm.
During starting, the pilot flow is determined on the basis of the engine speed and the coolant
temperature.
The pulse of each injector is corrected according to the difference in instantaneous speed measured
between 2 successive injectors.
The instantaneous speeds on two successive injections are first calculated.
The difference between these two instantaneous speeds is then calculated.
Finally, the time to be added to the main injection pulse for the different injectors is determined.
For each injector, this time is calculated according to the initial offset of the injector and the
instantaneous speed difference.
The cylinder balancing strategy also allows the detection of an injector which has stuck closed. The
difference in instantaneous speed between 2 successive injections then exceeds a predefined threshold.
In this case, a fault is signaled by the system.
0000-00 15-21
A. MDP Learning
When the pulse value that the injector starts injection is measured, it is called minimum drive pulse
(MDP). Through MDP controls, can correct pilot injections effectively. Pilot injection volume is very small,
1 to 2 mm/str, so precise control of the injector can be difficult if it gets old. So there needs MDP learning
to control the very small volume precisely through learning according to getting older injectors.
- Control the fuel injection volume precisely by MDP learning even for the old injector.
- ECU corrects the pilot injection effectively by MDP control.
- MDP learning is performed by the signal from knock sensor.
15-22
C. Learning Conditions
- If MDP learning is not properly performed, engine vibration and injection could be occurred.
- MDP learning should be performed after replacing ECU, reprogramming and replacing injector.
This is done periodically under certain operating conditions. When the resetting is finished, the new
minimum pulse value replaces the value obtained during the previous resetting. The first MDP value is
provided by the C3I. Each resetting then allows the closed loop of the MDP to be updated according to
the deviation of the injector.

C. Types of swirl
Swirl: One cylinder has two intake air ports, one is set horizontally and
the other one is set vertically. Swirl is the horizontal air flows in cylinder
due to the horizontal intake air ports.
Tumble: Tumble is the vertical air flows in cylinder due to the vertical
intake air port
Tumble: Tumble is the vertical air flows in cylinder due to the vertical
intake air port
D. Swirl control
In DI type diesel engine, the liquefied fuel is injected into the cylinder directly. If the fuel is evenly
distributed in short period, the combustion efficiency could be improved. To get this, there should be
good air flow in cylinder. In general, there are two intake ports, swirl port and tangential port, in each
cylinder. The swirl port generates the horizontal flow and the tangential port generates the longitudinal
flow. In low/mid load range, the tabgential port is closed to increase the horizontal flow. Fast flow
decreases the PM during combustion and increases the EGR ratio by better combustion efficiency.
15-28
Swirl valve
Swirl: This is the twisted (radial) air flow along the cylinder wall during the intake stroke. This
stabilizes the combustion even in lean air-fuel mixture condition.
E. Features
- Swirl and air intake efficiency
To generate the swirl, the intake port should be serpentine design. This makes the resistance in air
flow. The resistance in air flow in engine high speed decreases the intake efficiency. Eventually, the
engine power is also decreased, Thus, the swirl operation is deactivated in high speed range to
increase the intake efficiency.
- Relationship between swirl and EGR
To reduce Nox, it is essential to increase EGR ratio. However, if EGR ratio is too high, the PM also
could be very higher. And, the exhaust gas should be evenly mixed with newly aspired air. Otherwise,
PM and CO are dramatically increased in highly concentrated exhaust gas range and EGR ratio
could not be increased beyond a certain limit. If the swirl valve operates in this moment, the limit of
EGR ratio will be higher.

B. Components
D. Operation process
When the differential pressure sensor detects the pressure difference between the front and the rear
side of CDPF, the sensor sends signal indicating the soot is accumulated and the post injection is
performed to raise the temperature of exhaust gas. The amount of fuel injected is determined according
to the temperature of exhaust gas detected by the rear temperature sensor. If the temperature is below
600°C, the amount of fuel injected is increased to raise the temperature. If the temperature is over
600°C, the amount of fuel injected is decreased or not controlled. When the engine is running in
low load range, the amount of post injection and the amount of intake air are controlled. It is to raise the
temperature by increasing the amount of fuel while decreasing the amount of intake air.

E. Cautions
- Use only specified Engine Oil (approved by MB Sheet 229.51) for CDPF.
- The vehicle equipped with CDPF should use specific engine oil to improve the engine performance
and fuel economy, and ensure the service life of CDPF.
- Sulfur, one of the contents of engine oil is burned and generates soot that is not regenerated by the
DPF. This remains on the filter as ashes and keeps accumulating. Eventually, this ashes will block
the filter.
- Minimized the sulfur content of engine oil which reduces the service life.
- Improved fuel economy and emission level of CO2 with high performance and low viscosity.
- Increased service life of engine oil with high resistance to temperature.
- The service life of filter may be reduced by 30% or more by the ashes accumulated on the filter.
The fuel economy may be reduced because of engine rolling resistance, frequent regeneration of
- DPF.
* These problems are also caused by oil with high sulfur content, such as tax exemption oil and
heating oil, etc.

2) On-engine Service
- Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit, or when a
tool or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals.
Disconnecting this cable will help prevent personal injury and damage to the vehicle. The ignition
must also be in LOCK unless otherwise noted.
- Any time the air cleaner is removed, the intake opening should be covered. This will protect
against accidental entrance of foreign material, which could follow the intake passage into the
cylinder and cause extensive damage when the engine is started.

1. FUEL SYSTEM
The function of the fuel metering system is to deliver the correct amount of fuel to the engine under all
operating conditions.
The fuel is delivered to the engine by the individual fuel injectors mounted into the intake manifold near
each cylinder.
The main fuel control sensors are the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor and the oxygen (O2) sensors.
The MAF sensor monitors the mass flow of the air being drawn into the engine. An electrically heated
element is mounted in the intake air stream, where it is cooled by the flow of incoming air. Engine Control
Module (ECM) modulates the flow of heating current to maintain the temperature differential between the
heated film and the intake air at a constant level. The amount of heating current required to maintain the
temperature thus provides an index for the mass air flow. This
concept automatically compensates for variations in air density, as this is one of the factors that
determines the amount of warmth that the surrounding air absorbs from the heated element. MAF
sensor is located between the air filter and the throttle valve.
Under high fuel demands, the MAF sensor reads a high mass flow condition, such as wide open throttle.
The ECM uses this information to enrich the mixture, thus increasing the fuel injector on-time, to provide
the correct amount of fuel. When decelerating, the mass flow decreases. This mass flow change is
sensed by the MAF sensor and read by the ECM, which then decreases the fuel injector on-time due to
the low fuel demand conditions.
The O2 sensors are located in the exhaust pipe before catalytic converter. The O2 sensors indicate to
the ECM the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas, and the ECM changes the air/fuel ratio to the engine
by controlling the fuel injectors. The best air/fuel ratio to minimize exhaust emissions is 14.7 to 1, which
allows the catalytic converter to operate most efficiently. Because
of the constant measuring and adjusting of the air/fuel ratio, the fuel injection system is called a "closed
loop" system.
The ECM uses voltage inputs from several sensors to determine how much fuel to provide to the engine.
The fuel is delivered under one of several conditions, called "modes".
02-6
1) Starting Mode
When the ignition is turned ON, the ECM turns the fuel pump relay on for 1 second. The fuel pump then
builds fuel pressure. The ECM also checks the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor and the
Throttle Position (TP) sensor and determines the proper air/fuel ratio for starting the engine. This ranges
from1.5 to 1 at -36 °C (-33 °F) coolant temperature to 14.7 to 1 at 94 °C (201 °F) coolant
temperature. The ECM controls the amountof fuel delivered in the starting mode by changing how long
the fuel injector is turned on and off. This is done by ''pulsing" the fuel injectors for very short times.
2) Run Mode
The run mode has two conditions called ''open loop" and ''closed loop".
3) Open Loop
When the engine is first started and it is above 690 rpm, the system goes into "open loop" operation. In
"open loop", the ECM ignores the signal from the HO2S and calculates the air/fuel ratio based on inputs
from the ECT sensor and the MAF sensor. The ECM stays in "open loop" until the following conditions
are met:
- The O2 has a varying voltage output, showing that it is hot enough to operate properly.
- The ECT sensor is above a specified temperature (22.5 °C).
- A specific amount of time has elapsed after starting the engine.
4) Closed Loop
The specific values for the above conditions vary with different engines and are stored in the
Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM).
When these conditions are met, the system goes into "closed loop" operation. In "closed loop", the ECM
calculates the air/fuel ratio (fuel injector on- time) based on the signals from the O2 sensors. This allows
the air/fuel ratio to stay very close to 14.7 to 1.
5) Acceleration Mode
The ECM responds to rapid changes in throttle position and airflow and provides extra fuel.
6) Deceleration Mode
The ECM responds to changes in throttle position and airflow and reduces the amount of fuel. When
deceleration is very fast, the ECM can cut off fuel completely for short periods of time.

could permit exhaust fumes to seep into the trunk may be an indication of a problem in one of these
areas. Any defects should be corrected immediately.
NOx is generated a great deal in case that combustion temperature and excess air factor are high. EGR
valve can decrease NOx (30 to 35% decrease) by making temperature of combustion chamber fall by
means of exhaust gas re-circulation.
- EGR valve is installed on the diesel engine of Musso, Korando, Istana and Rexton.
And micro switch is installed together to control EGR valve.
- The setting method of micro switch is identical with the existing one.

1. COMPONENT LOCATOR
2) Radiator
This vehicle has a lightweight tube-and-fin aluminum radiator. Plastic tanks are mounted on the upper
and the lower sides of the radiator core.
On vehicles equipped with automatic transaxles, the transaxle fluid cooler lines run through the radiator
tank.
A radiator drain plug is on this radiator.
To drain the cooling system, open the drain plug.
3) Coolant Reservoir
The coolant reservoir is a transparent plastic reservoir, similar to the windshield washer reservoir.
The coolant reservoir is connected to the radiator by a hose and to the engine cooling system by another
hose.
As the vehicle is driven, the engine coolant heats and expands. The portion of the engine coolant
displaced by this expansion flows from the radiator and the engine into the coolant reservoir. The air
trapped in the radiator and the engine is degassed into the coolant reservoir.
When the engine stops, the engine coolant cools and contracts. The displaced engine coolant is then
drawn back into the radiator and the engine. This keeps the radiator filled with the coolant to the desired
level at all times and increases the cooling efficiency.
Maintain the coolant level between the MIN and MAX marks on the coolant reservoir when the system is
cold.
2112-01 06-7
4) Water Pump
The belt-driven centrifugal water pump consists of an impeller, a drive shaft, and a belt pulley.
The impeller is supported by a completely sealed bearing.
The water pump is serviced as an assembly and, therefore, cannot be disassembled.
5) Thermostat
A wax pellet-type thermostat controls the flow of the engine coolant through the engine cooling system.
The thermostat is mounted in the thermostat housing to the front of the cylinder head.
The thermostat stops the flow of the engine coolant from the engine to the radiator to provide faster
warm-up, and to regulate the coolant temperature. The thermostat remains closed while the engine
coolant is cold, preventing circulation of the engine coolant through the radiator. At this point, the engine
coolant is allowed to circulate only throughout the heater core to warm it quickly and evenly.
As the engine warms, the thermostat opens. This allows the engine coolant to flow through the radiator
wherethe heat is dissipated. This opening and closing of the thermostat permits enough engine coolant
to enter the radiator to keep the engine within proper engine temperature operating limits.
The wax pellet in the thermostat is hermetically sealed in a metal case. The wax element of the
thermostat expands when it is heated and contracts when it is cooled.
As the vehicle is driven and the engine warms, the engine coolant temperature increases. When the
engine coolant reaches a specified temperature, the wax pellet element in the thermostat expands and
exerts pressure against the metal case, forcing the valve open. This allows the engine coolant to flow
through the engine cooling system and cool the engine.
As the wax pellet cools, the contraction allows a spring to close the valve.
The thermostat begins to open at 87°C(188.6 °F) and is fully open at 102°C(215.6°F). The
thermostat closes at 85°C (187°F).
- Keep hands, tools, and clothing away from the engine cooling fans to help prevent personal injury.
This fan is electric and can turn on even when the engine is not running.
- If a fan blade is bent or damaged in any way, no attempt should be made to repair or reuse the
damaged part. A bent or damaged fan assembly should always be replaced with a new one to
prevent possible injury.
06-8
The cooling fans are mounted behind the radiator in the engine compartment. The electric cooling fans
increase the flow of air across the radiator fins and across the condenser on air conditioned (A/C)-
equipped vehicles.
This helps to speed cooling when the vehicle is at idle or moving at low speeds.
All models have two fans. The main fan is 320 mm (12. 6 inches) in diameter with seven blades to aid
the airflow through the radiator and the condenser. An electric motor attached to the radiator support
drives the fan.
The auxiliary fan is 320 mm (12.6 inches) in diameter.
▶ A/C On
- The ECM will turn the cooling fans on at low speed when the A/C system is on. The ECM will
change to high speed when the high side A/C pressure reaches 1860 kPa (269.8 psi).
The cooling fans will return to low speed when the high side A/C pressure reaches 1378 kPa
- (199.8 psi).

2) Ratings
▶ A battery has two ratings: (1) a reserve capacity rating designated at 27°C(80°F), which is the
time a fully charged battery will provide 25 amperes of current flow at or above 10.5 volts (2) a cold
cranking amp rating determined under testing at -18°C(0°F), which indicates the cranking load
capacity.
(1)Reserve Capacity
The reserve capacity (RC) is the maximum length of time it is possible to travel at night with the minimum
electrical load and no generator output. Expressed in minutes, the RC rating is the time required for a
fully charged battery, at a temperature of 27°C(80°F) and being discharged at a current of 25
amperes, to reach a terminal voltage of 10.5 volts.

▶ State-of-Charge - A completely discharged battery requires more than twice as much charge as a
onehalf charged battery.
Because the electrolyte is nearly pure water and a poor conductor in a completely discharged
battery, the current accepted by the battery is very low at first. Later, as the charging current causes
the electrolyte acid content to increase, the charging current will likewise increase.

3. Continue to charge the battery until the charge current is measurable. Battery chargers vary in the
amount of voltage and current provided. The time required for the battery to accept a measurable
charger current at various voltages may be as follows:
· If the charge current is not measurable at the end of the above charging times, the battery
should be replaced.
· If the charge current is measurable during the charging time, the battery is good, and charging
should be completed in the normal manner.
It is important to remember that a completely discharged battery must be recharged for a sufficient
number of ampere hours (AH) to restore the battery to a usable state.
· If the charge current is still not measurable after using the charging time calculated by the above
method, the battery should be replaced.

In order to avoid damaging the vehicle make sure the cables are not on or near pulleys, fans, or
other parts that will move when the engine starts.
In order to avoid injury, do not use cables that have loose or missing insulation.
6. Clamp one end of the first jumper cable to the positive terminal on the booster battery. Make sure it
does not touch any other metal parts.
7. Clamp the other end of the same cable to the positive terminal on the discharged battery. Never
connect the other end to the negative terminal of the discharged battery.
8. Clamp one end of the second cable to the negative terminal of the booster battery.
9. Make the final connection to a solid engine ground, such as the engine lift bracket at least 450
millimeters (18 inches) from the discharged battery.
10.Start the engine of the vehicle with the good battery.
Run the engine at a moderate speed for several minutes.
11.Then start the engine of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
12.Remove the jumper cables by reversing the above sequence exactly, removing the negative cable
from the vehicle with the discharged battery first.
While removing each clamp, take care that it does not touch any other metal while the other end
remains attached.

6) Alternator
Alternators are equipped with internal regulators.
Unlike three-wire generators, the alternator may be used with only two connections: battery positive and
an "D+" terminal to the charge indicator lamp.
As with other charging systems, the charge indicator lamp lights when the ignition switch is turned to
RUN, and goes out when the engine is running.
If the charge idicator is on with the engine running, a charging system defect is indicated. This indicator
light will glow at full brilliance for several kinds of defects as well as when the system voltage is too high
or too low.
The regulator voltage setting varies with temperature and limits the system voltage by controlling rotor
field current.
Achieve correct average field current for proper system voltage control by varying the on-off time. At high
speeds, the on-time may be 10 percent and the off-time 90 percent.
At low speeds, with high electrical loads, the on-time may be 90 percent and the off-time 10 percent.
7) Charging System
Generators use a new type of regulator that incorporates a diode trio.
A Delta stator, a rectifier bridge, and a rotor with slip rings and brushes are electrically similar
to earlier generators.
A conventional pulley and fan are used.
There is no test hole.
8) Starter
Wound field starter motors have pole pieces, arranged around the armature, which are energized by
wound field coils.
Enclosed shift lever cranking motors have the shift lever mechanism and the solenoid plunger enclosed
in the drive housing, protecting them from exposure to dirt, icy conditions, and splashes.
In the basic circuit, solenoid windings are energized when the switch is closed.
The resulting plunger and shift lever movement causes the pinion to engage the engine flywheel ring
gear.
The solenoid main contacts close. Cranking then takes place.
When the engine starts, pinion overrun protects the armature from excessive speed until the switch is
opened, at which time the return spring causes the pinion to disengage.
To prevent excessive overrun, the switch should be released immediately after the engine starts.

9) Starting System
The engine electrical system includes the battery, the ignition, the starter, the generator, and all the
related wiring.
Diagnostic tables will aid in troubleshooting system faults. When a fault is traced to a particular
component, refer to that component section of the service manual.
The starting system circuit consists of the battery, the starter motor, the ignition switch, and all the related
electrical wiring.
All of these components are connected electrically.
