| STEPS
TO "READINESS" |
| "NJ
State Inspection and The Drive Cycle for 1996 and newer
Porsches" |
|
To achieve "Ready"
status to pass State Inspection, the drive cycle steps must
be completed two times. Some
systems may require more than 2 times.
Verify the status of the readiness with the appropriate
function scan tool from your service shop.
Begin the Drive Cycle:
The vehicle should be driven approximately 7.5
miles within a period of approx. 23 mins. from a cold start.
Operate the throttle smoothly to obtain the best results.
DO NOT turn the ignition off during the drive cycle. Note:
Extreme driving conditioning such as very high/low temperatures,
rough roads and high altitudes may prevent some monitors
from attaining a "Ready" status. Obey all traffic
laws. |
