Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve control will only be enabled during idle and cruising conditions while the following conditions are met:
- The intake air temperature (IAT) is more than 5.25°C (41.5°F). EGR valve control will remain enabled until the IAT is less than 0°C (32°F) and will not enable again until the IAT is more than 5.25°C (41.5°F).
- The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is between 60-96.75°C (140-206.15°F). EGR valve control will remain enabled until the ECT is less than 57°C (134.6°F) or more than 99.75°C (211.55°F) and will not enable again until the ECT is between 60-96.75°C (140-206.15°F).
