Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.
Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards.
Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equi pment, etc. away from all
moving or hot engine parts.
Operate the vehicle in a well ventilated work area: Exhaust gases are
poisonous.
Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle
unattended while running tests.
Use extreme caution when working around the ignition coil, distributor cap,
ignition wires and spark plugs. These components create hazardous voltages
when the engine is running.
Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or NEUTRAL (for
manual transmission) and make sure the parking brake is engaged.
Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline/ chemical/ electrical fires
nearby.
Don't connect or disconnect any test equi pment while the ignition is on or
the engine is running.
Keep the scan tool dry, clean, free from oil/water or grease. Use a
mild detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the scan tool, when
necessary.
1.3 Vehicle Coverage
The T55e VW/AUDI Code Scanner is specially designed to work with most
Volkswagen and Audis sold worldwide of 1990 or newer models. If a VW/
AUDI has a 16 pin”OBDII style Data Link Connector (DTC), the scanner tool
will certainly work. If it has an old-style 2x2 Data Link Connector (DTC), then
it depends on whether there are 4 or 3 wires connecting to the pins. If there
are 4 wires, each connecting a pin, then it will work. If there are only 3 wires
leaving one pin disconnected then it will not work. For VW/AUDI with old-style
2x2 Data Link Connector (DTC), you need to have a 2x2 cabling adapter
which is not included in this product package.
