Safety Precautions and Warnings
To avoid injury or damage to the vehicle and/or scan tool, first read this manual
and observe the following safety precautions when working on a vehicle:
First, turn off the ignition. Connect the 16-pin connector, and then turn on the
ignition.
Always perform vehicle tests in a safe environment.
Do not attempt to operate or observe the unit while driving a vehicle.
Operating or observing the device distracts to the driver and may result in a
fatal accident.
Wear safety glasses that meet the standards of ANSI.
Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away from all moving or
hot engine parts.
Operate the vehicle in a well-ventilated area: Exhaust fumes are toxic.
Place blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle
unattended while performing tests.
Use extreme caution when working near the ignition coil, distributor cap,
ignition wires and spark plugs. These components generate dangerous
voltages when the engine is running.
Keep a fire extinguisher nearby that is suitable for gasoline, chemical, and
electrical fires.
Keep the scan tool dry, clean, and free of oil/water or grease. If necessary,
use a mild detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the scan tool.

Questions and answers
Does the ad410 need to be fully charged the first time in use?
why is my MIL off?
The MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light) on your ANCEL AD410 is off because the scan tool indicates that there are no active fault codes in the vehicle's system. According to the manual, when the MIL status is shown as gray on the dashboard, it means the MIL is off, indicating no detected issues.
