Plugging the Nanocom into a PC/Laptop via it’s mini-USB cable, when using this method, you will see 4 on-
screen icons, please select the “Nanocom Diagnostics” option.
Connection via the supplied OBD lead to the OBD socket in the vehicle.

the Nanocom to the car in the following way:

2- Connect the OBD end of the cable to the vehicles OBD socket.

STEP 1: Obtaining your Nanocom ID and order number
You can locate the Nanocom ID by powering the Nanocom using one of the three methods detailed above. Once the
Nanocom powers up, from the home screen you can see arrows and a scroll bar at the bottom, press the right arrow
to go to the 2nd page and then follow these menu steps:
NANOCOM > SETUP > NANOCOM ID
This screen shows you the Nanocom unique 6-digit ID. Please be aware as it is case sensitive and must be written
exactly as it is shown on the screen. Please make a written note of this ID number and keep it somewhere safe.
You can find the order number of your NANOCOM in your order confirmation email, in the link we sent to view
your order online and when the status of your order was changed to paid. If this is a second hand unit that was
already registered this field is not required.
For any problems please send an email to support from the contact us page.
STEP 2: Register your Nanocom
Please be aware that you must supply a valid email address to be able to receive a confirmation email for your
registration. Failure to provide a valid email address will result in you not being able to access your Members Area
and therefore you will not be able to obtain the unlock codes for your Nanocom.
Please register here: http://www.nanocom-diagnostics.com/register
Note: If you do not receive your confirmation email, then please check your SPAM and TRASH folders.
The Nanocom ID is not the
number on the back of the
Nanocom.

STEP 3: Obtaining your Unlock Codes (license codes)
Once you receive your new login details and password via email, you can then login to the Restricted Members Area
and acquire your unlock codes (named “My Licenses”in the Restricted area). Here you will see a list of all of your
Unlock Codes. Restricted area link: http://www.nanocom-diagnostics.com/restricted
STEP 4: Storing your unlock codes
To input your Unlock Codes, please go to the second page of the Nanocoms home screen and follow this menu path:
NANOCOM > SETUP > UNLOCK CODES
Upon entering this section, you will notice 5 fields that all contain six ‘?’ marks each, there are 4 pages with 5 code
fields on each, these are the total unlock codes 1-20. To enter your codes to the appropriate fields, please note that
“License 3” goes in to the third box “Unlock 03” and “License 11” would go in to “Unlock 11”.
Please note: You MUST touch the screen after the last of the “?” marks that are already showing in the white boxes,
then use the “Delete” button to remove all of them. Only then will you be able to input your code. The Nanocom
DOES NOT overwrite the information already in the box.

to scroll right to the last page and press the “Save unlock codes” button. Once saved, you will need to power down
and then restart the Nanocom.

finger, we recommend using an object such as plastic toothpick or pencil but nothing that will scratch the surface of
the screen. Remember this is a TOUCH screen and as such will not withstand excessive pressure. Replacement
screens are ONLY available by returning your unit under a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) as described
in the Returns and Warranty Policy on the link below.
