Hyundai Santa Fe: Automatic Transaxle Cooling System / ATF Warmer. Description and operation
The ATF warmer is mounted on the valve body cover to reduce oil viscosity friction
by increasing oil temperature under cold condition, which in turn improves fuel
efficiency. It is serial mounted on the entry of the Electronic Throttle Controller
(ETC), as shown in the diagram, and minimizes the effects of cabin heating system.
