FCC WARNING
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. End user must follow the specic operating instructions for satisfying RF
exposure compliance. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
The mobile device is designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio waves
established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA). These requirements
set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value
reported under this standard during product certication for use when properly worn on
the body is 0.733 W/kg.
For body operation, this device has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines
when used with any accessory that contains no metal and that positions a minimum of
15mm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.

2. How To Use
2.1 Data Link Connector (DLC) Location
The DLC (Data Link Connector or Diagnostic Link Connector) is typically a 16pin connector
where diagnostic code readers interface with the vehicle’s onboard computer. The DLC is
usually located 12 inches from the center of the instrument panel (dash), under or around the
driver’s side for most vehicles. If Data Link Connector is not located under dashboard, a label
should be there telling location. For some Asian and European vehicles, the DLC is located
behind the ashtray and the ashtray must be removed to access the connector. If the DLC cannot
be found, refer to the vehicle’s service manual for the location.
Note: Turn on the ignition of the vehicle, the voltage range of the device should be 9-18V, and
the throttle should be in the closed position.

EN 2.2 Application Overview
When the code reader boots up, the Home screen opens. This screen shows all applications
loaded on the unit. Following applications are preloaded into the code reader:
● Diagnostics : leads to OBDII screens for all 9 generic OBD system tests.
● IM Readiness:option allows to view a snapshot of the operations for the emission system on
OBDII/EOBD vehicles.
● Lookup : leads to screens for diagnostic trouble code lookup.
● Review Data : leads to screens for access to tested data les.
● Print : leads to screens for access to printing function
● Help : You will nd the device OBD function and system instructions
● Setup :leads to screens for adjusting default settings to meet your own preference when using
the code reader.
● Info : leads to screen that shows information about the code reader.
Note: Not all function options of the protocol listed in this device are applicable to all vehicles. The
available options may vary depending on the year, model, and make of the vehicle tested. If this option
is not applicable to the vehicle under test, "X" will be displayed. When the barcode reader is connected
to the vehicle, it will automatically check the status of the I/M monitor and give a summary report on
the display, as shown in the gure below.
1.1.1 Select "Diagnosis", click "OK" to enter the system diagnosis, select the vehicle
type, and enter the diagnosis function list.

EN
1.1.2 Select "READ CODE" and click "OK" to select vehicle type to view DTC diagnostic
data.

EN
1.2 Select "ERASE CODES" to clear the fault code
Note: Erase Codes menu lets you to clear all current and stored DTCs from the control module.
Also it erases all temporary ECU information, including freeze frame. So make sure that the
selected system are completely checked and serviced by technicians and no vital information
will be lost before clearing codes.
1.3 Select” I/M READINESS” and click "OK" to view the I/M data ow.

EN
NOTE :
● To review I/M Readiness status, make sure that the ignition key is switched to ON with the engine o.
● Not all monitors are supported by all vehicles.
I/M Readiness is a useful function used to check if all monitors are OK or N/A. The vehicle’s
computer performs tests on the emission system during normal driving conditions. After a
specic amount of drive time (each monitor has specic driving conditions and time required),
the computer’s monitors decide if the vehicles emission system is working correctly. When the
monitor’s status is:
● OK - vehicle was driven enough to complete the monitor.
● INC (Incomplete) - vehicle was not driven enough to complete the monitor.
● N/A (Not Applicable) - vehicle does not support that monitor. There are two types of I/M
Readiness tests:
● Since DTCs Cleared - shows status of the monitors since the DTCs were last cleared.
● This Drive Cycle - shows status of monitors since the start of the current drive cycle. Below is
a list of abbreviations and names of OBD II monitors supported by the code reader.
There are two ways to retrieve I/M Readiness Status data:
● One-click I/M readiness key
● Typical way: select I/M Readiness from Diagnostic Menu
1.4 Select "DATA STREAM" View all data streams,Next click "OK", and nally you can view the
graphics data ow.
Tips: Use the BACK key to return to diagnostic menu.
1.5 Select "FREEZE FRAME" and click "OK" to view the freeze frame data stream.

EN
Freeze Frame menu displays freeze frame data, a snapshot of critical vehicle operating
conditions automatically recorded by the on-board computer at the time of the DTC set. It is a
good function to help determine what caused the fault.
1.6 Select "O2 SENSOR TEST" and click "OK" to view O2 Sensor data Stream.
OBD II regulations require certain vehicles monitor and test oxygen (O2) sensors to isolate fuel
and emissions related faults. The O2 Monitor Test function is used to retrieve completed O2
sensors monitor test results.
The O2 Monitor Test is not an on-demand test. O2 sensors are not tested when selected via the
menu but tested when engine operating conditions are within specied limits.
