Vehicle Programming Instructions
PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE INSTRUCTION SHEET BEFORE YOU PROCEED
Thank you for choosing the Superchips Model 1724
MAX Micro Tuner, a state-of-the-art instrument that
allows you to install a Superchips performance
program specifically tuned for your vehicle and your
driving requirements.
You can select between a Performance program when
you are using premium fuel and a program that provides
optimum performance when using 87 octane fuel.
You can custom tune your shift points and shift firmness,
and optionally adjust the vehicle rpm and speed limiters.
Vehicles with electronic speedometers allow for correction
to compensate for gear changes. Traction Control disable
and adjustment of electric fan turn on temperature is also
available on some vehicles.
This product is intended for use on unmodified stock
engines.
Your Vehicle's STOCK Program
The MAX MicroTuner stores a copy of your vehicle's
original stock computer program. Your vehicle computer
must contain the manufacturer's STOCK factory
program. If you have used a programmer from another
aftermarket company you must use their product to
return your computer back to STOCK condition before
proceeding. If you have a performance enhancing chip
installed, it must be removed.
Your Vehicle and Service Centers
If you need to return your vehicle to a service center, restore the vehicle program to its
STOCK program as described below. The service center might reprogram your vehicle with
an updated STOCK program without your knowledge. If your vehicle has not been returned
to its STOCK program prior to service, the Superchips MAX Micro Tuner will no longer be
able to program your vehicle. Such a failure is not covered by the Superchips Inc. warranty.
Vehicle Preparation
Before connecting the MAX Micro Tuner to your vehicle, make sure that all power draining
accessories are turned off. Radio, lights, cell phones, etc., all need to be turned off as the
MAX Micro Tuner needs full battery voltage to program. Ensure your vehicle battery is fully
charged and not connected to a battery charger. Do not leave the MAX Micro Tuner
connected and unattended for any length of time to prevent unnecessary battery drain. Do
not remove the programming cable during any programming sequence.
Important Note Regarding Storage of Your MAX Micro Tuner
It is recommended that you not store your MAX Micro Tuner in your vehicle if ambient
o
temperatures in your area fall below 32 F. Excessively low temperatures can cause
malfunction or damage to the MAX Micro Tuner that is not covered by the Superchips Inc.
warranty.
