For safe usage
CAUTION
When working anywhere hardly visible, for example under the vehicle, always make the vehicle
starter switch (ignition switch) OFF to ensure that the vehicle cannot be moved.
Failure to do so could result in an accident.
When working near the engine compartment, be careful of the engine and other high-temperature
parts.
High-temperature parts can cause burns.
Do not route the cable of this product over the engine compartment, especially if the engine is
running.
Failure to follow this instruction could result in an accident by catching up the cable and clothes with the
belt and pulley.
Do not use this product in an extremely dusty environment.
Before connecting the datalink cable to this product and the vehicle side diagnosis connector,
inspect to see if each connector is contaminated with foreign materials or the connector pins are
damaged.
<Handling of the product and equipment>
Do not drop this tool or subject it to a strong impact.
When connecting the datalink cable to this product and the vehicle side diagnosis connector or
disconnecting it from them, ensure correct orientation of the connector and gently put it straight in.

For safe usage
WARNING
Do not use this product near medical devices or inside medical facilities as it may affect electronic
devices with medical applications.
Make sure to keep this product at least 22 cm away from persons wearing a pacemaker.
Radio wave could affect the performance of pacemaker.
Do not use this product near an automatic control device such as an automatic door or a fire
alarm.
Radio wave could effect its operation and result in an accident caused by malfunction.
Do not use this product in electric trains, airplanes, or places where flammable gasses are
present.
Failure to do so may result in accidents.
CAUTION
The communication range depends on any obstacles (i.e., human bodies, metal, walls) between
this product and the Bluetooth device, and the condition of the radio wave.
An antenna is built into this product. The sensitivity of the Bluetooth communication is maximized
when no obstacles exist between the connected Bluetooth device and the antenna of this product.
The communication distance becomes shorter should there be obstacles between the antenna of
the connected Bluetooth device and the built-in antenna of this product.
The following circumstances could affect the sensitivity of the Bluetooth communication.
- Obstacles such as human body, metal, wall, etc.
- In close proximity to established wireless networks, microwave ovens, and other devices that
emit radio waves.
Since Bluetooth devices and the wireless LAN (IEEE802.11 b/g) use the same frequency band
(2.4 GHz), radio wave interference could occur and cause degradation of communication speed,
noise and disconnection if a Bluetooth device is used near a wireless LAN equipped device.
To resolve poor communications, perform the following steps.
- Place this product as close to a Bluetooth device as possible.
- Keep a wireless LAN equipped device away from this product as much as possible.
- If communications do not improve, turn off any wireless LAN equipped devices nearby.
Use the USB cable for more data critical situation over the Bluetooth communication (wireless)
due to the greater possibility of loss of connection during data upload or download of the data
transmission.
Please note that we shall have no liability for any information leakage from the Bluetooth
communication.
