A plastic DLC cover may be found for some vehicles and you
need to remove it before plugging the OBD2 cable.
3) Plug OBD II cable to the vehicle‟s DLC.
When the scan tool is not connected to a vehicle, it can be powered
in the other three ways.
Auto power-off
Solely powered up by Li-ion battery, the tool will automatically turn
off after 15 minutes of inactivity.
Li-ion battery charging
You can charge your Li-ion battery by connecting it to an external
power adapter, by connecting it to the vehicle‟s DLC or by
connecting it to a USB port on your computer. The tool displays a
battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen to show
approximately how much charge is left.
Using a Power Adapter
If you're using an external power adapter, connect the tool to the
adapter. Then plug the adapter into a working electrical socket.
Using your computer
If you want to charge the tool using your computer, make sure
that your computer is turned on, it isn't sleeping (refer to the
computer's manual to find out how to turn sleep off), and that the
USB you connect the tool to provides power. Also, make sure to
use the high-powered USB ports which are typically found on the
computer itself ----- not on your keyboard, which is low-powered.
NOTE: If using a portable computer, make sure it is plugged into
power and that the lid or display is open because if the lid is
closed the computer may go into either standby, sleep, or
hibernation mode and the tool will not charge.
