Safety Instructions
The safety messages herein cover situations Autel is aware of. Autel cannot

certain that any condition or service procedure encountered does not
jeopardize your personal safety.
DANGER
When an engine is operating, keep the service area WELL VENTILATED or
attach a building exhaust removal system to the engine exhaust system.
Engines produce carbon monoxide, an odorless, poisonous gas that causes
slower reaction time and can lead to serious personal injury or loss of life.
Do Not Turn the Volume Up Too Loud When Using Headphones
Listening at high volumes that over-stimulate the ear for long periods of time
may result in loss of hearing.
SAFETY WARNINGS
Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.

Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away from all
moving or hot engine parts.
Operate the vehicle in a well ventilated work area, for exhaust gases are
poisonous.
Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or NEUTRAL
(for manual transmission) and make sure the parking brake is engaged.
Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle
unattended while testing.
Be extra cautious when working around the ignition coil, distributor cap,
ignition wires and spark plugs. These components create hazardous
voltages when the engine is running.
Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline, chemical, and electrical
fires nearby.
Do not connect or disconnect any test equipment while the ignition is on
or the engine is running.
