Software Download Procedure This TSB will update the Consumer Interface Processor (CIP) to the latest (BD)/(13171) suffix level/software version V3.6. The software requires a one-time software download onto a USB flash drive. The software may be loaded on one or multiple USB flash drives. The USB flash drive(s) can then be used to update multiple vehicles following the Vehicle Software Install procedure. Minimum 2 gigabyte (GB) USB flash drive is required. USB flash drives previously provided for FSAs 11A02 and 11A03 are preferred for compatibility. Be sure to identify USB flash drives so the software level contained on the drive is known. This procedure will clear any saved data stored on the USB flash drive. Save any important data stored on the USB flash drive to another location prior to starting this procedure. If you previously performed this procedure on a different vehicle, and already have a USB flash drive loaded with this software update, proceed directly to the section for Vehicle Software Install.
