STEP 03

Confirm the success state

The wheels turn green and the display reports successful completion. A trip interruption is allowed; the reset resumes when driving continues. Until success is shown, record the reset as incomplete. If a warning remains, follow its instructions rather than repeatedly replacing the baseline.
