SCAN TOOL OPERATION
To diagnose a vehicle, connect the DLC and power adapter (if applicable) to the
scan tool. Refer to “Diagnostic Link Connectors (DLC)” on page 1-4 of Getting
Started.
If you just want to power up the tool to do its self-tests, code lookup, or review data
from the last vehicle tested, then you do not need to attach the cable to the Data
Link Connector. The internal battery provides power for this.
Tool Power-Up
Connect the tool to the vehicle using the appropriate DLC and power connections.
When the tool powers up, a series of
messages display on the screen
beginning with a “Welcome” screen and
ending with a “Key Button Help” screen. If
you wish to review the key button
definitions, push the
+(/3
key;
otherwise, press
(17(5
to continue.

If a list or message contains more than four lines, an arrow icon displays on the
last column of the display to indicate the scrolling direction available: up (

down (

83'2:1
arrow keys to move line-by-line through the display.
When the bottom of the list is reached, then only the
\ displays. At the top of the
list, only the
