Default Secondary Air Injection

I am reciving a DTC Code of 16795 - which says it is a Secondary Air Injection problem......Just what is this .....sorry guys just a novice here and trying to figure out.

Problem occurs when I take car on a longer run say about 150 miles or so then when I go to start the following day, car hard starting, then when starts Engine light comes on with this code. Any help....thanks

I had that issue and my dealership had a problem diagnosing it. They finally isolated the problem to a faulty valve located between the air injection pump and the catalytic converter. I was told that this code could also result from a dying air injection pump.
