Safety Precautions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This guide contains important safety and operating instructions.
Read and understand all instructions before operating
the EMMIT.
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.
WARNING:
• Wear an American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) approved eye shield when testing or
repairing vehicles.
• Objects propelled by whirling engine
components or pressurized liquids escaping
may cause personal injury.
• Set the parking brake and block the wheels
before testing or repairing a vehicle. It is
especially important to block the wheels on
front-wheel drive vehicles because the parking
brake does not hold the drive wheels.
• Useonlyspecicallydesignedreplacement
parts (brake hoses and lines) for ABSequipped vehicles.
• Do not drive the vehicle and operate the
software at the same time. Any distractions
may cause an accident. Have one person
operate the software as another person drives
the vehicle.
• Maintain adequate clearance around moving
components or belts during testing. Moving
components and belts can catch loose
clothing, body parts, or test equipment and
cause serious damage or personal injury.
• Automotive batteries contain sulfuric acid and
produce explosive gases that can result in
serious injury.
• Refer to the service manual for the vehicle
being serviced. Adhere to all diagnostic
procedures and precautions. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury or otherwise
unneeded repairs.
• This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates and radiates radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
• When installing transmitting devices (Citizen
Band radio, telephone, etc.) on ABS-equipped
vehicles, do not locate the antenna near the
ABS control unit or any other control unit.
• To reduce risk of injury, charge the Scan Tool
only with the supplied charger. Other chargers
may cause injury to persons and damage to
property. May burst, causing injury to persons
and damage.
• Use of an attachment not recommended or
sold by the battery charger manufacturer may
resultinre,electricshock,orpersonalinjury.
• Do not operate the EMMIT with a damaged
cord or connector. Replace damaged cords
and connectors immediately.
• Do not operate the EMMIT or component part
if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped,
or otherwise damaged in any way. Consult a
service person.
• Do not disassemble the charger. Consult a
service person if service or repair is necessary.
Incorrect reassembly may result in electric
shock or Unplug charger before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning. Powering off controls
will not reduce this risk.
• To prevent possible hearing damage, avoid
using the tool at high volume levels for long
periods.
• Do not expose tool or charger to rain, moisture,
or snow.
• Verify that cords are located so as not to be
stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise become

• The battery poses a burn hazard if you handle
it improperly. Do not disassemble it. Handle a
damaged or leaking battery with extreme care.
If the battery is damaged, electrolyte may leak
from the cells and may cause personal injury.
• Keep the battery away from children.
• Do not store or leave your tool or battery
