*Note: To detect more and accurate VINs, a stable network connection is highly

recommended for this funcon.

*CAUTION: Don’t connect or disconnect any test equipment with ignion on or engine

running.

A. Once the system successfully obtains the VIN (Vehicle Identication Number)

information of the currently identified vehicle, it will continue scanning the

vehicle systems. After the scanning is complete, a diagnostic report will be

automatically generated and sent to your email box (if bound).

B. If the tool failed to access the VIN information, the screen will display as

below:

Fig. 5-2

Input the VIN, and tap “OK”, the system will automatically identify the vehicle

model. If the vehicle VIN is successfully decoded, it will perform auto-

diagnosis until a diagnostic report is automatically output. Otherwise it will

enter manual diagnosis mode. For details on manual diagnosis, see Chapter

5.2.2.

*Notes:

• The most recognizable locaon for this number is in the top le corner on

the vehicle’s dashboard. Other locations include the driver’s door or post,

and the rewall under the hood.

• In general, vehicle identification numbers are standardized - all contain 17

characters. VIN characters may be capital leers A through Z and numbers

1 through 0; however, the leers I, O and Q are never used in order to avoid

mistakes of misreading. No signs or spaces are allowed in the VIN.
