procedure
1. Engine: start
2. Accelerate until the vehicle speed is 72 km/h (45 mph).
3. Travel for 300 seconds or more while keeping the vehicle speed at 72
−
97 km/h (45 - 60
mph). (M/T = 5ht speed)
4. Decelerate until the vehicle speed is within 56
−
64 km/h (35
−
40 mph).
5. While keeping the accelerator pedal opening degree constant, keep the vehicle speed at
56
−
64 km/h (35
−
40 mph) and travel for 90 seconds or more. (During monitor)
6. Fully close the throttle and decelerate, and keep the deceleration state for 10 seconds.
Then, quickly accelerate until the vehicle speed reaches 56
−
64 km/h (35
−
40 mph).
Then, repeat steps 5 and 6, and complete six monitoring sessions.
7. Return the vehicle to the shop, then turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
8. Confirm that the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is not output.
