This technical bulletin must be read in its entirety before attempting the software update.
– If software updates or flash campaigns/actions are performed on a vehicle, a charger with at least 70A
charging current MUST be connected to the vehicle’s 12-volt battery in order to avoid problems during
the updates and flash campaigns/actions.
Technical Background

performing the update, it becomes necessary at any point to replace the ICAS3 (-J794-), the spare part
received will require an update to software version 1771.
