Driving Pattern B

Refer to "DIAGNOSIS DESCRIPTION : DRIVING PATTERN ".

Driving Pattern C

Refer to "DIAGNOSIS DESCRIPTION : DRIVING PATTERN ".

Example:

If the stored freeze frame data is as per the following:

Engine speed: 850 rpm, Calculated load value: 30%, Engine coolant temperature: 80°C (176°F)

To be satisfied with driving pattern C, the vehicle should run under the following conditions:

Engine speed: 475 - 1, 225 rpm, Calculated load value: 27 - 33%, Engine coolant temperature: more than 70°C (158°F)
