Step 1 – Establish Flash Preconditions

IMPORTANT!

PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE PRECONDITIONS LISTED BELOW. ENSURE THAT ALL OF THE
PRECONDITIONS ARE MET PRIOR TO STARTING THE FLASH. FAILURE TO ESTABLISH THESE
PRECONDITIONS CAN LEAD TO FLASH FAILURE.
•

The driver door must remain open for the duration of the flashing procedure.

•

Before entering the SVM code, check if the current date/time is displayed in the vehicle. If it is not, move the
vehicle to a location where there is GPS reception, or set the date and time manually. If the current date/time
is not displayed, the software update will not be possible, or it will be aborted.

•

Activate privacy mode by switching the mobile data off:

•

o

Home screen menu > Settings > Privacy settings > Switch Mobile Data Off.

o

Advise customer that privacy mode has been deactivated and may need to be reactivated.

o

See Appendix A for specific HMI paths.

Switch off the background lighting in the HMI to prevent negative interference:
o

Home screen menu > Vehicle > Lights > Interior lighting > Select the “off” tab at the lower right area of
the screen.

o

See Appendix A for specific HMI paths.

•

Only one vehicle key is permitted inside the vehicle during the software update. The key must be positioned
on the hazard warning light switch and not in the cupholder.

•

The sunroof (if equipped) must be in the closed position.

•

Switch off all consumers, air conditioning, heater blower motor, lights, heated seats, etc.

•

Connect the -VAS5908- battery charger.

The SVM progress bar may remain at 0% for up to 15 minutes before advancing.
This is normal and not an indication of a failed attempt.
WARNING!
Irreparable damage may occur if the background lighting is not deactivated prior
to starting the software update.
•

Verify that the ODIS version is 24.3.0 or later. If the current ODIS
version is below 24.3.0, do not start the flash until the scan tool has
been updated to ODIS version 24.3.0 or higher.

•

Ensure charger is set to charging voltage of 14.8V; voltage shown in
ODIS must be over 14V.

•

Use operating mode, FLASH.
o

Communication path = DoIP

•

Select “SVM – Code Input”.

•

Finish the current test plan.

o

Verify all preconditions are met.

o

Perform the SVM again.

If the SVM fails after the second attempt:
o

Send the diagnostic protocol online.

o

Submit an ODIS feedback.

o

Do not perform the SVM again or attempt any other repairs.

o

Create a TAC web ticket for further assistance.

•

Switch the ignition off and on again after performing the update (before
exiting the flash program).

•

Ensure the diagnostic log is sent to GFF Paperless after completion.
