1. Safety Precautions and Warnings

To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the

TPMS tool, read this instruction manual first and observe the

following safety precautions at a minimum whenever working on

a vehicle:

z Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.

z Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards.

z Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away

from all moving or hot engine parts.

z Operate the vehicle in a well ventilated work area: Exhaust

gases are poisonous.

z Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the

vehicle unattended while running tests.

z Use extreme caution when working around the ignition coil,

distributor cap, ignition wires and spark plugs. These

components create hazardous voltages when the engine is

running.

z Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or

NEUTRAL (for manual transmission) and make sure the

parking brake is engaged.

z Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline/chemical/

electrical fires nearby.

z Don’t connect or disconnect any test equipment while the

ignition is on or the engine is running.

z Keep the TPMS tool dry, clean, free from oil/water or grease.

Use a mild detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the

code reader, when necessary.
