Safety guideline
In order to ensure proper operation and satisfactory performance, observe the
cautions listed below.
DANGER
This equipment is designed to comply with IEC61010-1 safety standards, and
has been tested for safety prior to shipment. Excessive high voltage measurement
or improper operation could result in personal injury, as well as damage to the
equipment or the vehicle. Please read this manual carefully and be sure that you
understand its contents before using the equipment.
The manufacturer disclaims all responsibility for any accident except for that
resulting due to defect in its product.
WARNING
For safety reasons, this equipment should not be used to
measure circuits carrying more than 30Vrms or 42.4V peak.
To avoid electrical accident that could result in injury or
death, do not measure voltage in excess of these limitations.
Maximum rated measurable voltage is 30Vrms or 42.4V
peak.

II. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS -----------------------
DANGER
When an engine is running, keep the workshop area WELL
VENTILATED or attach a building exhaust removal system to the
engine exhaust system. Engines produce carbon monoxide, an
odorless and poisonous gas that causes slower reaction time
and may lead to serious injury or death.
WARNING
Brakes and wheel blocks
Apply the hand brake and block the wheels before using the test
equipment. It is highly recommended to block the wheels on
front-wheel drive vehicles because the hand brake does not hold
the driving wheels.
Drive Test
Do not drive the vehicle and operate the test equipment at the
same time. Any distraction may cause an accident. Have one
person operate the test equipment while the other person drives
the vehicle.
Never place the test equipment in front of you when driving the vehicle because the
test equipment may hit your body and cause serious injury when
the air bag inflates.
Do not try to test the SRS air bag system while driving the
vehicle as unintended air bag inflation may result.

Chapter 1
Engine Compartment
Maintain sufficient clearance between moving components or
belts while using the test equipment in the engine compartment.
Moving components and belts may catch loose clothing, test
cables or a part of your body and cause damage or personal
injury.
Electrical Components
Always turn the ignition key OFF when connecting or disconnecting electrical
components unless otherwise instructed.
Vehicle Battery
ULTRASCAN PLUS equipments are designed to prevent damage from reverse polarity
battery cable connection, however, it is always highly recommended to always ensure
correct polarity terminal connection.
Never lay the test equipment on vehicle battery. You may short the terminals and may
cause damage to your body, the test equipment or the battery.
To avoid damaging the test equipment or displaying false data, make sure the vehicle
battery is fully charged and the connections to the electronic control module are clean
and tight.
The warning messages above and the safety messages contained hereinafter cover
situations Hanatech is aware of. Hanatech cannot know, evaluate or advise you as to
all of the possible hazards. You must make sure that any conditions or service
procedures encountered do not jeopardize your personal safety.
