1.2.1 Internal Battery Pack
The diagnostic tool (display unit) comes equipped with a rechargeable internal
battery pack that can be charged using the supplied AC power adapter. A fully
charged battery pack provides sufficient power for up to 5 hours of continuous
operation.

Insert the end of the AC power adapter cable into the DC power supply input jack
on the diagnostic tool, then connect the AC power adapter to an approved AC
power source.
IMPORTANT
Only use the supplied AC power adapter. Never connect the power
adapter to the diagnostic tool when the tool is communicating with a
vehicle.
Battery Status Indicator
An illuminated indicator is located in the power button, to indicate battery status and
charge level.

1.3.2 Turning Off
All vehicle communication must be terminated BEFORE turning off the
diagnostic tool. A warning message displays if you attempt to turn the
diagnostic tool off while communicating with the vehicle. Forcing a shut
down while communicating may lead to ECM problems on some
vehicles. Never disconnect the Compact Scan Module when the
diagnostic tool is communicating with the vehicle ECM.
Before turning the diagnostic tool off, it is highly recommended to back up personal
and saved data to a USB mass storage device on a regular basis to prevent loss in
the event of system corruption or hard disk drive failure, see
