REMOVAL

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

The necessary procedures (adjustment, calibration, initialization, or registration) that must be performed after parts are removed and installed, or replaced during camshaft removal/installation are shown below.

Necessary Procedure After Parts Removed/Installed/Replaced

Replaced Part or Performed Procedure	Necessary Procedure	Effect/Inoperative Function when Necessary Procedure not Performed
Disconnect cable from negative auxiliary battery terminal	Perform steering sensor zero point calibration	Lane Control System
Disconnect cable from negative auxiliary battery terminal	Perform steering sensor zero point calibration	Pre-collision System
Replacement of throttle body assembly Replacement of camshaft (for intake or exhaust camshaft) Replacement of camshaft timing gear assembly Replacement of ignition coil assembly	Inspection After Repair	Poor idle, etc. Engine start function, etc.

NOTICE:

After the power switch is turned off, the radio and display receiver assembly records various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the power switch off, make sure to wait at least 85 seconds before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. (for Audio and Visual System (for HV Model))
