Start Clutch Pressure Control Calibration by Driving the Vehicle

  1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on twice).
  2. Make sure that the MIL does not come on and the D indicator does not blink. If the MIL comes on or the D indicator blinks, check the fuel and emissions system or the CVT control system.
  3. Start the engine without a load (headlights, audio system, blower fan, rear window defogger, A/C, etc.), and let it idle.
  4. Check the IMA battery charge level. If the IMA battery level indicator displays no level, hold the engine speed between 3, 500 and 4, 000 rpm without load (in P or N) until the level in the indicator is half full.
  5. Drive the vehicle with the shift lever in D until the vehicle speed reaches 37 mph (60 km/h), then release the accelerator and decelerate without pressing the brake pedal for at least 5 seconds to reach completion.
  6. Test-drive the vehicle for several minutes, make sure the engine does not stall or flare when starting off, and verify that a problem does not occur on the start clutch pressure control system.
