2. PERFORM SYSTEM CHECK (EVAP SYSTEM CHECK (AUTOMATIC OPERATION))
NOTICE:
- In EVAP SYSTEM CHECK (AUTOMATIC OPERATION), a series of 6 EVAP SYSTEM CHECK steps are performed automatically. A maximum of 15 minutes is required.
- Do not perform EVAP SYSTEM CHECK when the fuel tank is more than 90% full because the cut-off valve may be closed and the leak check of the fuel tank is unavailable.
- Do not run the engine.
- When the temperature of the fuel is 35°C (95°F) or more, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing an EVAP SYSTEM CHECK, keep the temperature below 35°C (95°F).
(a) Clear the DTCs with the intelligent tester.
(b) Remove the fuel tank cap and reinstall the fuel cap.
(c) Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / SYSTEM CHECK / EVAP SYS CHECK / AUTO OPERATION.
