1.4 – Safety Instructions for Wireless Units
Warning!
1. No antenna modifications, e.g. relocation or use of other antennas or transmitters, are permitted
on units approved for wireless operation.
2. Do not use a portable transmitter (e.g. wireless network (WLAN) or Bluetooth device) in the
vicinity of unshielded detonator caps or in an explosive atmosphere, unless the device has been
modified in a way that permits such use.
3. Information regarding Bluetooth and W-LAN approval in various countries may be found in the
device Operating Manual and the VAS 5054A / VAS5055 information located in the
Administration function of the VAS-PC diagnostic software.
Caution!
1. Line voltage fluctuations and deviations exceeding the permissible tolerance can result in
malfunction and damage to the diagnostic device.
2. When operating the VAS 6160-VPC in a workshop cart, ensure that the power adapter has
adequate ventilation. Remember that the charging circuit is operating even when the tester is
switched off. This is also true in the power saving mode.
3. When connecting other make vehicles:
The VAS 6160-VPC diagnostic tablet was developed and specified for vehicles manufactured
by the Volkswagen Group. Connecting the tester or remote diagnosis head interface directly
to a vehicle from another manufacturer, may cause damage to the vehicle's electrical system.
If attempting to use the generally applicable OBD functions for self-diagnosis of other make
vehicles, the OBD adapter cable VAS 5052/16 should be connected between the diagnostic
head and diagnosis connection in the vehicle.
4. When handling the rechargeable battery:
The rechargeable battery should be replaced only by properly trained personnel.
Never short-circuit the rechargeable battery.
Never throw the rechargeable battery into a fire.
Dispose of/recycle the rechargeable battery only when discharged and in accordance with
local regulations.
