 To meet government regulations and pro- mote cleaner air, your
vehicle is equipped

This data will be erased if the battery cable is disconnected, which could make a rapid diagnosis difficult.
Do not disconnect the
battery cable when the engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine
light”) is ON.
