Warm up cycle

The warm-up cycle is the time for the engine to warm up. To fulfill the condition "warm-up cycle", the engine temperature may not be higher than a specified value (for instance 30° C). The engine operating phase has to be long enough to reach a specified temperature (for instance 70° C). The "warm-up cycle condition" is needed to count down or reduce the erase counter in the case of faults which have been recognized as corrected.
