DESCRIPTION
If the system detects some error while vehicle is running, it notifies
the driver of a malfunction
by turning ON the HICAS warning lamp,
and at the same time, it halts the normal control and enters the
fail-safe mode.

1. Start the engine.
2. Within 10 seconds after the engine has started, turn the steer-
ing wheel more than
20" right-to-left and repeat this
5 times or
more, and then depress the brake pedal
5 times or more.
