TRANSMISSION
At slow speed, in gears 1 and 2, in acceleration-deceleration
regime, an audible knock in the form of short clicks may occur
in the driving system.
When moving at higher gears of the gearbox and the transfer
case at speed higher than 60 km/h in engine braking regime,
as well as during free running (neutral position of the gearbox),
noise in the driving system in the form of a slight low-frequency
hum may occur;
During brisk acceleration of the motor vehicle, a slight knock
may occur during selection of air gaps in spline coupling of the
driving system.
Upon engine braking a slight knock may occur during selection
of air gaps in spline couplings of the driving system.
During free running and subsequent brisk acceleration of the
motor vehicle, a slight knocking of synchronizers rings of the
gearbox may occur.

WARNING!
Brake fluid is poisonous. Keep it in a tightly closed
container. While working with it follow these rules:
- avoid any operations as a result of which the liquid can enter
into the mouth cavity;
- do not let the fluid dry out on the skin; wash it off with soap
and warm water;
- wash away the spilled fluid with water, vent the room;
- remove contaminated clothing, dry it outside the room and
launder.
The level of fluid must be 15-20 mm lower than the upper
edge of the reservoir 2 (Fig. 9.20).
The clutch pedal position is adjusted by clutch master cylinder
push rod 5 length change. Clutch pedal full travel should be
130±10 mm. Free travel (5-30 mm) is clutch design feature and
is not adjusted.
Incomplete clutch release and pedal softness indicate air
presence in the hydraulic system. Perform system bleeding via
clutch release cylinder valve 2 (Fig. 9.21, 9.22) following the
hydraulic brake system bleeding instruction.
