4.2 Glossary
•Tool:NAVIGATOR TXB Zero
•Operator:qualified person responsible for using the diagnostic tool.
•Vehicle:any motorised means of transportation that can be diagnosed using the tool.
The definition of "operator" cannot be applied to minors or to
people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or
without any experience or knowledge required.
4.3 General Rules
The operator must have carefully read all the information and instructions in
thetechnicaldocumentsprovidedwith thetool.Ifthe operatorcannotread this
manual, it is responsibility of the owner of the tool/employer/person in charge
of the safety to illustrate the contents of this document and adequately train
the operator in relation to the operating instructions and safety measures for
a proper use of the tool.
•The operator that works on vehicles must have basic qualifications and knowledge of
mechanics, automotive engineering, vehicle repairing and of the potential dangers that
may arise during self-diagnosis operations.
en

•The operator must be completely clear-headed and sober when using the device; taking
drugs or alcohol before or when operating the tool is strictly forbidden.
•The operator must follow all the instructions provided in the technical documents.
•The operator is required to wear adequate personal protective equipment (PPE)
throughout the use of the tool.
•Theoperatormustmonitorthetoolduringtheoperatingphaseswhereverthisis possible
in compliance with the safety measures indicated below.
•The operator must periodically check the electrical connections of the tool, making sure
they are in good condition and immediately replacing any damaged cables.
•Theoperatormustperiodicallycheck the partsthataresubject to wearandreplacethem
if necessary, using only original spare parts or spare parts approved by the

•Do not remove or tamper with any safety devices the tool is equipped with.
4.4 Operator Safety
The airbags inflate with great force.
In case of explosion, a device located in the airbag's
expansion area will be thrown with force causing severe
damages and injuries.
Safety Measures:
•Do not place the tool in the airbags' expansion areas.
Some self-diagnosis operations allow you to activate/
deactivate certain actuators and safety systems on the
vehicle.
Failure to reactivate the actuators and safety systems
properly or at all may be a safety risk for the vehicle user.
Safety Measures:
•In order to avoid injuring people and/or damaging the device or the electronic systems
of the vehicle connected to the device, do not allow unqualified personnel to use the
device.
•Follow the instructions supplied by the software thoroughly.
The tool was designed to be electrically safe and to work
with specific supply voltage levels.
Improperuse mayexposethe operatorto theriskof electric
shock, even though of low intensity.
10

Safety Measures:
•Wear adequate personal protective equipment during all the operating phases.
•Do not handle or touch the tool or any accessories (e.g. cables) with wet hands.
The current used during the operating phases generates
electromagnetic fields (EMF) near the tool.
Even though of low intensity, these fields may interfere
with medical prostheses, such as pacemakers.
Safety Measures:
•Keep away from the tool after launching the operating phases.
•If you have a medical prosthesis (e.g.: pacemaker), check with your doctor as to the
appropriateness of using the tool or being near it.
4.5 Tool Safety
The tool was designed to be used in specific environmental
conditions.
Using the tool in environments with temperature and
humidity values that differ from those specified may impair
its efficiency.
Safety measures:
•Put the tool in a dry area.
•Do not expose or use the tool near heat sources.
•Put the tool where it can be properly ventilated.
•Do not use corrosive chemicals, solvents or harsh detergents to clean the tool.
The tool was designed to be mechanically sturdy and
suitable for use in the workshop.
Careless use and excessive mechanical strain may impair
its efficiency.
Safety measures:
•Do not drop, shake or bump the tool.
•Do not place the tool where it could fall into water. Avoid any contact with water.
•Do not place objects over the cables nor bend them.
•Do not perform any kind of intervention that may damage the tool.
•Do not open or disassemble the tool.
The tool was designed to be electrically safe and to work
with specific supply voltage levels.
Failure to comply with the specifications related to the
power supply may impair the tool's efficiency.
en
11

Safety measures:
•Do not wet the tool with water or other liquids.
•If not otherwise specified, use the device on vehicles with a 12/24 V DC power supply
and the chassis connected to the negative pole.
•The connection for the tool's power supply should always take place with the battery
system of the vehicle being tested.
•Do not use external batteries to supply the tool unless explicitly requested to do so by
the software.
•Pay the utmost attention to battery terminals and cables when setting up the connection
to the vehicle. This will avoid false contacts and/or accidentally connecting the cables
to metallic parts of the vehicle being tested.
The electromagnetic compatibility tests carried out on the
tool guarantee that it can be adapted to the technologies
normallyused on vehicles (e.g.: enginecheck,ABS, airbag,
etc.). Nevertheless, if malfunctions occur you should
contact the vehicle's dealer.

5 OPERATION OF THE RADIO DEVICES
Wireless connection with Bluetooth® technology
The wireless connection with Bluetooth technology is a technology that supplies a standard
and reliable method to exchange information between different devices, using radio waves.
Products such as cellular phones, portable devices, computers, printers, cameras, pocket
PCs etc. use this type of technology.
The Bluetooth interface searches for compatible electronic devices according to the radio
signal they generate and establishes a connection between them. The tools operate a
selection suggesting only compatible / enabled devices. This does not exclude the presence
of other sources of communication or interference.
THE EFFICIENCY AND THE QUALITY OF THE BLUETOOTH COMMUNICATION MAY BE
INFLUENCED BY THE PRESENCE OF RADIO DISTURBANCE SOURCES. THE
COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL HAS BEEN DEVELOPED TO MANAGE THESE TYPES
OF ERRORS; HOWEVER, IN THESE CASES COMMUNICATION MAY BECOME
DIFFICULT AND CONNECTION MAY REQUIRE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS.
SHOULD THE WIRELESS CONNECTION ENCOUNTER SERIOUS PROBLEMS THAT
MAY COMPROMISE A REGULAR COMMUNICATION, THE SOURCE OF THE
ENVIRONMENTAL ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE MUST BE IDENTIFIED AND
ITS INTENSITY REDUCED.
Position the product in order to guarantee the correct operation of its radio devices. In
particular, do not cover it with any shielding or metal materials in general.

vehicles, ensuring performances and speed.
The VCI allows you to perform a self-diagnosis on:
•motorcycles
•scooters
•quads
•personal watercrafts
•outboard engines
•inboard engines
Thanks to it, you can carry out the following operations:
•the self-diagnosis for the reading and the clearing of the errors, the display of the
engineering parameters and of the control unit's statuses;
•the activation, adjustment and configuration of the devices installed on the vehicle;
•the resetting of the warning lights,
•the configuration of the control units;
•the fuel trim and injection timing adjustment.
