Caution:
Perform this drive pattern on a level surface and strictly observe the posted speed limits and traffic laws while driving.
Hint:
Performing this drive pattern is one method to simulate the ect's malfunction detection conditions.
The dtcs may not be detected through ordinary, everyday driving. Also, dtcs may not be detected through this drive pattern.
Malfunction is not detected when the atmospheric temperature is less than -10°c (14°f).
Stop→1st → 2nd →3rd → o/d → o/d (lock-up on).
