HOW TO SET SRT CODE
DescriptionINFOID:0000000009462564
OUTLINE
In order to set all SRTs, the self-diagnoses as in
the “SRT ITEM” table must have been performed at least
once. Each diagnosis may require actual driving for a long period of time under various conditions.
SRT ITEM
The table below shows required self-diagnostic items to set the SRT to “CMPLT”.
*1: Though displayed on the CONSULT screen, “HO2S HTR” is not SRT item.
*2: If completion of several SRTs is required, perfo rm driving patterns (DTC confirmation procedure), one by
one based on the priority for models with CONSULT.
