Safety Precautions and Warnings
To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the scan tool, read
this instruction manual first and observe the following safety precautions at
a minimum whenever working on a vehicle:
⚫ Always perform diagnosis or service in a safe environment.
⚫ Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards.
⚫ Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away from all
moving or hot engine parts.
⚫ Operate the vehicle in a well-ventilated work area: Exhaust gases are
poisonous.
⚫ Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle
unattended while running tests.
⚫ Use extreme caution when working around the ignition coil, distributor
cap, ignition wires and spark plugs. These components create
hazardous voltages when the engine is running.
⚫ Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline/chemical/electrical fires
nearby.
⚫ Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or
NEUTRAL (for manual transmission) and make sure the parking brake
is engaged.
⚫ Always turn the ignition off before connecting/disconnecting the OBD II
Cable to/from the TPMS tool; otherwise it may cause the Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL) to turn on.
⚫ Refer to the user’s manual for the vehicle being serviced and adhere to
all diagnostic procedures and precautions. Otherwise personal injury or
unneeded repairs may result.
⚫ Keep the TPMS tool dry, clean, free from oil, water and grease. Use a
mild detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the TPMS tool
when necessary.
