DANGER

• When an engine is operating, keep the service area well-ventilated or attach

a building exhaust removal system to the engine exhaust system. Engines

produce various poisonous compounds (hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide,

nitrogen oxides, etc.) that cause slower reaction time and result in death or

serious personal injury.

battery is replaced with an incorrect type.

• DO NOT attempt to operate the tool while driving the vehicle. Have second

WARNING

 Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.

 Do not connect or disconnect any test equipment while the ignition is on or

the engine is running.

 Before starting the engine, put the gear lever in the Neutral position (for

manual transmission) or in the Park (for automatic transmission) position to

avoid injury.

 NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine. Do

 Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle unattended

while testing.

 Use extreme caution when working around the ignition coil, distributor cap,

ignition wires and spark plugs. These components create hazardous voltage

when the engine is running.

 To avoid damaging the tool or generating false data, please make sure the

vehicle battery is fully charged and the connection to the vehicle DLC (Data

Link Connector) is clear and secure.

 Automotive batteries contain sulfuric acid that is harmful to skin. In operation,

direct contact with the automotive batteries should be avoided. Keep the

ignition sources away from the battery at all times.

 Keep the tool dry, clean, free from oil, water or grease. Use a mild detergent

internal repairs must be done by an authorized repair facility or qualified

technician. If there is any inquiry, please contact the dealer.

 Keep the tool far away from magnetic devices because its radiations can

damage the screen and erase the data stored on the tool.

 Do not attempt to replace the internal rechargeable lithium battery. Contact

the dealer for factory replacement.

 Do not disconnect battery or any wiring cables in the vehicle when the ignition

switch is on, as this could avoid damage to the sensors or the ECU.

 Do not place any magnetic objects near the ECU. Disconnect the power

supply to the ECU before performing any welding operations on the vehicle.

 Use extreme caution when performing any operations near the ECU or

sensors. Ground yourself when you disassemble PROM, otherwise ECU and

sensors can be damaged by static electricity.

 When reconnecting the ECU harness connector, be sure it is attached firmly,

otherwise electronic elements, such as ICs inside the ECU, can be damaged.
