1.4 Connection to vehicle
1.5 Installation
Please note the following points, before connecting to the vehicle:
• The SIM card has already been inserted in the CAR OBD Finder 4G 2.0
• The CAR OBD Finder 4G 2.0 is designed to be plugged in the OBD port of your
vehicle, which is situated within the driver‘s cabin of your vehicle, typically found
in the driver‘s footwell, under the steering wheel, or in front of the center console
• Commonly, you can find the OBD port underneath the dashboard concealed
behind a removable panel or covered by a protective cap. If this is the case, the
cover must be opened before connecting the FINDER. If the cover cannot be
properly closed after connecting the FINDER, please employ an OBD extension
cable
The installation of the device should not cause damage or affect any
other components of your vehicle
Plugging the CAR OBD Finder 4G 2.0 into the OBD port may result in a drained
vehicle battery, as the Car OBD Finder 4G 2.0 is powered by the vehicle battery.
If the vehicle is driven regularly, this should not pose an issue to a healthy
car battery, as it will recharge adequately during operation. However, before
connecting, please verify if your battery has discharge protection and install it
if necessary. As a reference, the FINDER consumes approximately 10-20 mAh
in standby mode
In rare cases, specific electronic devices may not be allowed for permanent
connection to the vehicle‘s OBD port, as they could potentially trigger the
alarm system. For guidance, please check your vehicle‘s user manual or reach
out to the manufacturer
Locate the OBD port in your
vehicle. It is commonly posi-
tioned under a plastic cover.
