4.1. READY page
After connecting the TranSERVE® to the vehicle’s
battery, the display will show Firmware version
and serial number of the machine. The following
message will be shown next:
Turn on the engine
before Proceeding
• Start the engine of the vehicle.
• Press . The display will show the READY page,
describing the situation of the machine at the time
it is started and at the end of every cycle:
New 15.0L
Used 3.9L
Auxiliary Empty
Generic ATF 30C
• New: indicates quantity present in the tank
that contains new fluid.
• Used: indicates quantity present in the tank
that contains used/old fluid.
• Auxiliary: indicates quantity of additive/fluid
present in the auxiliary tank, which is designed
to contain up to 3 litres of additives or fluids.
The last line usually reads ATF GENERIC; in
this case the TranSERVE® will assume an average
specific weight characteristic of the range of
lubricants for automatic transmission. The degree
of approximation of weight/volume calculations is
maximum ± 2 %, which makes the TranSERVE® an
extremely accurate instrument. The last line shows
type of fluid used during the operations (see ”5.2 -
Fluid Type” on page 16) and temperature (°C) of
the fluid in the circuit.
4.2. List of functions
• In the READY page press to display the list of
functions:
•ATF Exchange
Fluid Top Up
Fluid Drain
Additive Load
•Service...
• Scroll the functions page up or down using the
selection button .
• Press the selection button shortly (= OK) to
confirm the operation selected.
4.3. ATF exchange
⚠
Before proceeding with the
fluid replacement phase
ensure that the type of fluid shown
in the fourth line on the display is
the same as the fluid in the NEW
FLUID tank. If you want to change
fluid type, read “5.2 - Fluid Type”
on page 16.
⚠
Check the tank tare, if
different from the original
tanks supplied. IT IS IMPORTANT
that you do not change the original
USED FLUID tank supplied with
the TranSERVE®, with another
tank; if you need to do so you must
first follow the simple procedure
described in “5.4 - Used Tank Tare”
on page 16.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
a) There is NO system, including the
TranSERVE® which is unmatched in the service
of cleaning and replacing fluid in automatic
systems, that can detect how much fluid is
really present inside a transmission, or inside
the transmission-radiator system. Therefore
select the quantity of fluid to be replaced at
the beginning of the process (dry!), this WILL
NOT change the actual quantity of fluid already
present.
It is important to consider that at the end of
operations the transmission will also contain
the quantity given by the sum of the volumes of
additives. Example: Cleaner 325 ml + Protection
additive 325 ml = 650 ml.
b) As regards the characteristics of viscosity and
the specific weight, ATF fluids belong to the same
family. Therefore they can be mixed and the
presence of fluid residues inside the TranSERVE®
(including in connection hoses) will not cause
any problem when in the following operation a
different type of fluid is used.
