Beyond the Basics
care
Keep the scanner dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry
immediately. Use and store the scanner only in normal
temperature environments. Handle the scanner
carefully; do not drop it. Keep the scanner away
from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth
occasionally to keep it looking new.
replacing fuse
Frist, turn off the scanner and your vehicle’s ignition.
Make sure you replace the fuse only with another fuse
of the same type and rating (2-amp, fast-acting glass
fuse).
resetting/initializing your scanner
If the scanner’s display locks up or does not work
properly after you connect a power source, you might
need to reset or initialize it. If you have problems with
the scanner, fi rst try resetting it, which will retain items
stored in memory. If that does not work, initialize the
scanner. You may be able to save the information in
your scanner’s memory to your computer, or another
scanner before initializing it. See “Cloning Programmed
Data”.
Warning!
Unspecifi ed key operations may clear your
scanner’s memory.
resetting your scanner
1. Turn off your scanner, and then turn it on again.
2. Insert a pointed object into the reset hole on the
back of the scanner. Then, gently press and release
the reset button.
