Storage and Maintenance
It is NOT recommended to store your programmer in your vehicle in extreme heat, direct
sunlight or extreme cold (temperatures near or below freezing). These conditions can
cause malfunction or damage to the programmer.
Pay attention to your programmer during vehicle programming. A status screen or prompt
may require action or attention.
Do NOT remove the programming cable during any sequence. Doing so may result in a
vehicle no start condition. Please follow the programmer display screens. If the cable is
removed during a programming sequence, the programmer is designed to go into recovery
mode which returns your vehicle to factory stock settings. You will have to restart your
programming sequence from the beginning.
Turn off all power-draining accessories during programming sequence, (including radio,
lights, wipers, cell phones, A/C & heater controls, etc.) The programmer needs full battery
voltage to program your vehicle. Ensure your vehicle is fully charged, and if connected to
a battery charger, it is set to low/trickle charge only.
Follow these steps to keep your programmer looking factory new. Ensure the programmer
is unplugged from all power sources. Lightly dampen a soft cloth with water and gently
wipe away any dirt. Do not use any alcohol or solvents. Although your programmer has
a durable design, strong chemicals or excessive water could damage the unit.
