SUBJECT: | Reprogramming File Availability for Optimization of Gen 4 Denso CP1 Infotainment Systems |
INTRODUCTION:
The following information announces reprogramming file availability and provides a software update installation procedure to optimize the new Gen 4 Denso CP1 Audio and Navigation head units utilized in the models listed above. As in previous models, the procedure will involve either downloading the software update files from Subarunet or using those sent directly from Nuspire to the SDS Notebook and transferring them onto a USB flash drive for head unit installation.
It is VERY IMPORTANT to read and understand this information completely before proceeding.
CAUTION: VEHICLE SERVICE PERFORMED BY UNTRAINED PERSONAL COULD RESULT IN THE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE OR EVEN SERIOUS INJURY.
Service Bulletin is intended for use by trained technicians ONLY. It informs technicians of conditions, which may occur in some vehicles or provides information, which could assist with proper servicing of the vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do the job correctly and safely.
A time line chart along with a complete list of all the conditions addressed and enhancements included in this and previous Denso software updates are provided in “Appendix D” and “Appendix E” located at the end of this bulletin.
IMPORTANT NOTE: For 2022MY the update contains four (3) files. When performing an update, the USB must contain the matching number of files and all files must be replaced. ALWAYS use the latest files together as a set.
NEVER reuse or combine files from a prior update with a newer version.
PART INFORMATION:
Materials Required:
An empty, USB 2.0 or 3.0 storage device (flash drive) will be needed to perform the update procedure. The device should be dedicated to storing and transferring these updating files only. It must be a minimum of 8GB or more in size and contain a NTFS file format before downloading the update files onto it. Be sure to locate and re-format any existing USB drives used for updating audio units. They must be fully cleared before adding these new update files to them.
IMPORTANT NOTES:

Example: 7 CID restarts when Navigation system is re-routing the route crossing the border of the states. When the customer veered off navigated route and the re-routed route includes the roads across the boarder of states, the calculation is not properly processed and the CID restarts. 8 CID restarts, while it is connected to Wi-Fi. It occurs when Wi-Fi signal includes illegible data. 9 CID restarts after the ignition switch is turned off and on again before the CID shuts off. 10 No functional response on touch screen in Radio mode even though the touch sound and visual reaction are confirmed. 11 Reprogramming process takes extensive time (40 minutes or more.) After the ignition switch is turned off and on again, the combination meter display mode changes itself and shows the ECO gauge (Current fuel consumption/Driving range on remaining fuel.) Both attribute to processing errors in CCU. 12 When conducting USB reprogramming, the screen transition to error screen instead of confirmation screen.

Even if the customer tap “OK,” it does not transit to another screen. As the improvement for this inconvenience, the message is changed so that the customer finds the reason why the FOTA operation has been paused. Also a “Resume” button is prepared so that the customer can do the rest of operations after necessary action (moving the vehicle to another place with better Wi-Fi connection**, or tethering the CP1 to a mobile phone, etc.) Note** The FOTA operation can be paused when the Wi-Fi indicator at the upper right corner of the CID is not in “Good” or “Excellent” as shown below. 4 To prevent the overall CID system (CCU) from being reset whenever its individual function fails, the robustness of the software has been improved. 5 CD returns to CD deck too fast to pick it out after ejection button has been pressed. As the countermeasure, the pausing time is extended to ease the operation. 6 Past DTC stored in the CCM cannot be captured by SSM when new current DTC is detected. Both DTC’s can be captured by SSM after letting the system into sleep mode and turning the Ignition Switch on again. 7 Music in the different folder in a USB stick can be selected by Track-UP/Down operation. 8 Music in multiple folders in a USB stick can now be played continuously whereas they could not be played unless they were in the root area of the USB stick.
