a. NOTICES FOR WHEN TESTING WITH 2-WHEEL DRUM TESTER
1. When testing with a 2-wheel drum tester such as a speedometer tester, a combination tester for the speedometer and brake, a chassis dynamometer, enter maintenance mode, or switch to VSC OFF mode to turn TRC and VSC operation off. Then enter test mode, start the engine and perform measurements.
