The clutch has a traditional design with one damped driving disc and a self-adjusting diaphragm spring of the clutch cover, the hydraulic drive is actuated by the clutch pedal.

When the clutch pedal is depressed, pressure is created that acts on the hydraulic fluid in the master cylinder. The hydraulic fluid pressure is transmitted through a pipe from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder in the gearbox. The hydraulic fluid pressure actuates the slave cylinder, which in turn pushes the fingers on the clutch cover, releasing the drive plate and disconnecting the engine crankshaft from the gearbox.
The hydraulic clutch purge adapter is located at the front of the gearbox. The adapter provides a connection between the pressure line running from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder. The adapter has a screw that is used to bleed air from the hydraulic clutch system after replacing one of the hydraulic elements during maintenance. In addition, the adapter has a peak torque limiter. It prevents instant engagement of the clutch if the driver accidentally releases the clutch lever, eliminating possible damage to the transmission components.
Vehicles equipped with the Stop/Start system - starting from 2010 MY
The linear clutch sensor, located in the clutch master cylinder and hardwired to the central junction box, is used to detect the position of the clutch pedal. It is used in conjunction with other sensor output signals to restart the engine, stop it, or restart it after the engine has stalled on vehicles with a Stop/Start system. It is also used with the first and reverse switches to check the validity of the clutch signal.
The linear clutch sensor receives information about the clutch pedal position from a magnet in the clutch master cylinder. Therefore, if the master cylinder is replaced, it must be selected and installed correctly. For more information, refer to the chapter: Starting system (303-06C Starting system - 2.2L Duratorq - Td4, Vehicles manufactured from 03/2009, Description and operating principle).
