- Välja 'Read Codes'.
- The scanner will display any stored, pending, or permanent codes along with their descriptions.
4.2 Rensa koder
This function erases DTCs from the vehicle's computer and turns off the Check Engine Light (MIL). Ensure any underlying issues are resolved before clearing codes, as they may reappear.
- Välj från huvudmenyn 'Diagnose'.
- Välja 'Erase Codes'.
- Confirm the action when prompted. The Check Engine Light should turn off.
4.3 I / M-beredskap
Den här funktionen kontrollerar statusen för fordonets utsläppsrelaterade övervakningssystem för att avgöra om de är redo för ett utsläppstest.
- Välj från huvudmenyn 'Diagnose'.
- Välja 'I/M Readiness'.
- The screen will display the status of various monitors (e.g., Misfire Monitor, Fuel System Monitor). 'OK' or 'Complete' indicates the monitor has run and passed; 'INC' or 'Incomplete' means the monitor has not yet run or completed its diagnostic cycle.
4.4 Data Stream (Live Data)

This function displays real-time operational data from the vehicle's engine control unit (ECU). This data can include engine RPM, vehicle speed, oxygen sensor readings, coolant temperature, and more.
- Välj från huvudmenyn 'Diagnose'.
- Välja 'Data Stream'.
- Use the Up/Down buttons to scroll through the various data parameters.
4.5 Frys ram
When an emission-related fault occurs, the vehicle's computer records a snapshot of operating conditions at the time of the fault. This data is called Freeze Frame data.
- Välj från huvudmenyn 'Diagnose'.
- Välja 'Freeze Frame'.
- Review the recorded parameters to understand the conditions under which the fault occurred.
4.6 DTC-sökning

This feature allows you to manually enter a Diagnostic Trouble Code and view its definition from the scanner's internal database.
- Välj från huvudmenyn 'DTC Lookup'.
- Use the navigation buttons to input the desired DTC.
- Trycka 'OK' till view the code definition.

7. Felsökning
7.1 Enheten slås inte på
- Ensure the diagnostic cable is securely connected to the vehicle's OBD2 port.
- Kontrollera att fordonets tändning är i läge 'ON' eller att motorn är igång.
- Check the vehicle's fuse for the OBD2 port (consult your vehicle's owner's manual).
7.2 Kommunikationsfel med fordonet
- Confirm the vehicle is OBDII-compliant (generally 1996 and newer for gasoline vehicles).
- Ensure the diagnostic cable is properly connected.
- Turn off the ignition, wait 10 seconds, then turn it back to 'ON' and try again.
- If possible, test the scanner on another compatible vehicle to rule out a device malfunction.
7.3 Codes Cannot Be Cleared
- Ensure the vehicle's ignition is in the 'ON' position (engine off).
- If the underlying fault that triggered the code is still present, the code may not clear or will reappear immediately. Address the vehicle's issue first.
8. Underhåll
- Rengöring: Använd en mjuk, torr trasa för att rengöra enheten. Undvik slipande rengöringsmedel eller lösningsmedel.
