Safety Precautions and Warnings
To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the test tool,
read this instruction manual rst and observe the llowing saty
precautions at a minimum whenever working on a vehicle:
•Always perrm automotive testing in a sa environment.
•ar saty eye protection that meets ANSI standards.
•Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away om
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 dangerous voltages when the engine is running.
•Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or
NEUTRAL (for manual transmission) and make sure the parking
brake is engaged.
•Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline/chemical/electrical
fires nearby.
•Don't connect or disconnect any test equipment while the ignition is
on or the engine is running.
•Keep the tool dry, clean and free from oil/water or grease. Use a mild
detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the test tool, when
necessary.
•When the power switch in the tool is depressed battery current/
voltage is conducted directly to the tip which may cause sparks when
contacting ground or certain circuits. Therefore the tool should NOT
be used around flammables such as gasoline or its vapors. The spark
of an energized tool could ignite these vapors. Use the same caution
as you would when using an arc welder.

aphazardly applying voltage to certain circuits can cause damage to
a vehicle's electronic components. Therefore, it is strongly advised to
use the vehicle manufacturer's schematic and diagnosing procedure
while testing.
