SECTION 3 GETTING STARTED
Where is the battery of a car located?
Let's take the following picture as a reference:
Explanation of LCD Display:
Bluetooth icon. A ashing icon indicates the tester is
not connected to the App; a solid icon indicates the
tester is connected.
This symbol indicates NOT to test twice within 10
seconds.
This symbol indicates voltage is too low. Charge the
battery rst.
This symbol indicates an over temperature. Wait until
the temperature is normal, and then test again.
This symbol indicates a poor connection between the
battery and clamps. Please reconnect.
This symbol indicates the tester reset failed. Please
reconnect the battery and clamps.
This symbol indicates the tester is abnormal or the
battery capacity is beyond the test range. Please
reconnect the battery and clamps, and try again.
1) Most models hold the battery in the engine bay, under the
hood, in one of the front corners. See battery location
①
and
②
in Figure 3.1.1.
2) To balance uneven weight distribution, some manufacturers
hold the engine in the trunk. See battery location
⑤
,
⑥
, and
⑦
in Figure 3.1.1. In this case, the battery may have a plastic
cover that should be removed prior to any testing.
3) For some models, the battery might be stored underneath the
rear seat. See battery location
④
in Figure 3.1.1.
4) For other vehicles, the battery can be located underneath the
passenger seat. See battery location
③
in Figure 3.1.1.
WARNING:
DO NOT TEST THROUGH THE JUMPSTART POSTS. For
models that hold the battery under the seat or in the trunk,
the manufacturer usually includes jumpstart connector
conductor posts under the hood (see Figure 3.1.2) to make
jumpstarting easier. However, to ensure data accuracy and
operation safety, DO NOT CONNECT THE BATTERY TESTER
TO THE JUMPSTART POSTS.
