    8. Make sure that "COOLANT TEMP/S" indicates more than 70 deg.C (158 deg.F).

      If not, warm up engine and go to next step when "COOLANT TEMP/S" indication reaches 70 deg.C (158 deg.F).

    9. Open engine hood.
    10. Select "DTC & SRT CONFIRMATION" then "SRT WORK SUPPORT" mode with CONSULT.
    11. Rev engine up to about 2, 000 RPM and hold it for 3 consecutive minutes then release the accelerator pedal completely.
