- The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) is more than 4.4°C (40°F).
Drive Pattern
1. Connect the scan tool to the DLC3 to check the monitor status and the preconditions.
2. Run the engine until the ECT is more the 75°C (167°F).
3. Run the engine at 3,000 rpm for 10 seconds.
4. Allow the engine to idle and turn on the air conditioning (A/C). Wait for 5 minutes.
5. Check the readiness monitor status.

NOTE: If the vehicle does not have A/C, put a slight electrical load on the engine by following the steps below:

Set the parking brake securely.
Use wheel chocks to secure the tires.
Move the shift lever to the D position and allow the engine to idle for 15 to 50 minutes.

Check the readiness monitor status.

If the status is displayed "INCMP", the monitor does not complete. Turn the ignition switch OFF, confirm the preconditions and perform the drive pattern again.
