Operating Instructions
Follow these steps to perform vehicle diagnostics:

- Turn Ignition ON: Turn the vehicle's ignition switch to the ON position (engine off).
- Select Function: Use the navigation buttons (e.g., Up/Down arrows) to scroll through the menu options and press the OK button to select.
- Read Codes: Navigate to the 'Read Codes' function and select the system (e.g., Engine, ABS). The tool will display any detected DTCs.
- Clear Codes: After addressing the issues indicated by the DTCs, navigate to the 'Clear Codes' function and follow the on-screen prompts to clear the fault codes. Ensure the engine is OFF when clearing codes unless otherwise instructed.
- View Data: Select 'Live Data' or 'Freeze Frame' to view relevant vehicle information.
- Disconnect: Once diagnostics are complete, turn the ignition OFF, then disconnect the scan tool from the vehicle's DLC.
Safety Precautions
- Always operate the scan tool in a well-ventilated area.
- Do not operate the scan tool while driving the vehicle.
- Ensure the vehicle's parking brake is engaged and the transmission is in Park (P) or Neutral (N) before performing diagnostics.
- Avoid exposing the tool to rain or moisture.
- Handle the tool with care; do not drop it or expose it to excessive force.
Troubleshooting
Issue: Tool does not power on.
Solution: Ensure the vehicle ignition is ON and the OBDII connector is securely plugged into the DLC. Check the vehicle's fuse for the OBDII port.
