3. Restart the engine.
4. Turn off the air conditioning (if so equipped).
5. Allow the engine to warm up until the needle in the water temperature gauge stabilizes near the centre of the gauge.
6. Stop and restart the engine.
7. Allow the engine to idle for approximately 10 minutes.
8. When the engine speed stabilizes, the resetting procedure is complete.

NOTE
