Safety instructions
3.1
Risk of electric shocks
3.1.1
Low voltages, high voltages
Hazardous voltages occur in both the lighting
system and the electrical system of a motor
vehicle. If contact is made with live parts (e.g.
with the ignition coil), there is a risk of electric
shock from flashover voltages caused by
damaged insulation (e.g. ignition cables which
have been attacked by martens). These apply
to the secondary and primary sides of the
ignition system, the wiring harness with connectors, lighting system (Litronic) as well as
connection to the vehicle.
Safety measures:
¶¶ Only connect to a properly grounded outlet.
¶¶ Only the enclosed or a tested power supply cable is
to be used.
¶¶ All extension cables must be fitted with shock-proof
contacts.
¶¶ Any cables with damaged insulation must be replaced.
¶¶ First connect the lighting system and turn it on before connecting it to the vehicle.
¶¶ Before switching on the ignition connect the (B-)
cable to engine ground or the battery (B–) terminal.
¶¶ Always switch off the ignition before performing any
work on the electrical system of the vehicle. Intervention includes, for instance, connection to the
vehicle, replacement of ignition system components,
removal of equipment (e. g. alternators), connection
of equipment to a test bench.
¶¶ Wherever possible, tests and settings should always
be caried out with the ignition switched off and the
engine stationary.
¶¶ If tests or settings are carried out with the ignition
switched on or the engine running, care must be
taken not to touch any live parts. This applies to all
connection cables and leads as well as to connections of equipment to test benches.
¶¶ Test connections must always be made using suitable connectors (e.g. Bosch testing cable set or
vehicle-specific adapter cables).
¶¶ Make sure that all test connections are properly
plugged in and secure.
¶¶ Before disconnecting the (B-) cable from the engine
ground or battery (B–), switch off the ignition.
¶¶ Never open the enclosures.

3.1.2
High voltages in hybrid vehicles and electric vehicles as well as their high-voltage components
If high-voltage components or high-voltage
wires are inexpertly handled, there is a risk of
fatal injury from high voltages and the possible transmission of current through the body.
¶¶ Deenergization is only to be performed by
a qualified electrician, a qualified electrician for specific tasks (hybrid) or a power
systems engineer.
¶¶ Work on vehicles with high-voltage components is only ever to be performed in a safe,
deenergized condition by persons with the
minimum qualification "Trained to perform
electrical work".
¶¶ Even after deactivating the high-voltage
vehicle electrical system, the high-voltage
battery may still be live.
¶¶ Operating condition cannot be established
from any running noise, as the electric machine is silent when stationary.
¶¶ In gear positions "P" and "N" the engine or
electric motor may start spontaneously depending on the charge of the high-voltage battery.
Safety measures:
¶¶ Never open or damage high-voltage batteries.
¶¶ On accident vehicles, never touch high-voltage components or exposed high-voltage wires before deactivating the high-voltage vehicle electrical system.
¶¶ Avoid contact with any high-voltage components
and high-voltage wires (orange sheathing) when in
operation.
¶¶ Secure against unauthorized renewed start-up
(e.g. by means of a padlock).
¶¶ Always wait at least 10 seconds after deactivating
the high-voltage system.
¶¶ Visually inspect the high-voltage components and
high-voltage wires for damage. The power systems
engineer responsible should always be immediately notified of any irregularities, doubts or defects
found.
$$ High-voltage components must never exhibit signs
of external damage.
$$ The insulation of the high-voltage wiring must be
intact and undamaged.
$$ Watch out for any abnormal deformation of the
high-voltage wiring.

Danger of acid burning
When exhaust gas measurements are taken,
the sampling hoses which are used release a
highly caustic gas (hydrogen fluoride) that can
cause acid burning in the respiratory system
when heated to temperatures in excess of
250 °C (482 °F) or in the event of fire.
Rules of conduct:
¶¶ Consult a doctor immediately after inhaling!
¶¶ Always wear gloves made of neoprene or PVC when
removing residues left after a fire.
¶¶ Neutralize any residues left after a fire with a calcium hydroxide solution. This produces non-toxic
calcium fluoride, which can be washed away.
Acids and alkalis can cause severe burning on
unprotected skin. Hydrogen fluoride in combination with moisture (water) forms hydrofluoric acid. The condensate, which accumulates
in the sampling hose and in the condensate
container likewise contains acid.
Rules of conduct:
¶¶ When replacing the O2 measuring sensor, bear in
mind that it contains alkali.
¶¶ When replacing the NO measuring sensor, bear in
mind that it contains acid.
¶¶ Rinse any affected parts of the skin immediately in
water, then consult a doctor!
¶¶ NO and O2 measuring sensors are hazardous waste
and must be disposed of separately. Your Bosch specialist equipper can dispose of sensors in the proper
manner.
If liquid crystal escapes from a damaged liquid
crystal display, it is imperative to avoid direct
skin contact, inhalation and swallowing.
Rules of conduct:
¶¶ If you have inhaled or swallowed liquid crystal, consult a doctor immediately!
¶¶ Wash the skin and clothing thoroughly with soap and
water if it has come into contact with liquid crystal.
If fluid (electrolyte) escapes from batteries
and rechargeable batteries, avoid getting it on
your skin or in your eyes.
Rules of conduct:
¶¶ If contact with skin or eyes happens nevertheless,
wash the affected parts immediately with clean water and then consult a doctor.

Danger of injury, Danger of crushing
The vehicle has rotating and moving parts
that can injure fingers and arms.
If the vehicle is not prevented from rolling
away, there is a danger of people being crushed against a workbench, for example.
There is the risk with electrically operated
fans in particular that the fan can start running unexpectedly even when the engine and
ignition are off.
Safety measures:
¶¶ Take steps to prevent the vehicle from rolling away
while it is being tested. Select the park position if the
vehicle has an automatic transmission and apply the
handbrake or lock the wheels with chocks (wedges).
¶¶ Operating staff must wear work clothes without
loose bands and loops.
¶¶ Do not reach in any area with rotating or moving parts.
¶¶ When working on or in the vicinity of electrically
driven fans, allow the engine to cool down first, then
disconnect the plug of the fan motor.
¶¶ Route cables at a suitable distance from rotating parts.
¶¶ Secure the trolley against rolling away by setting the
brakes.
¶¶ Do not place heavy objects on or lean on the sensor
holder.
¶¶ Transport and operate the equipment only in accordance with the operating instructions.
3.4
Danger of burning
When working on a hot engine, there is a risk
of injury from burning if such components as
the exhaust gas manifold, the turbo-charger,
the Lambda sensor, etc. are touched or if
parts of the body come too close to them.
These components may be heated to temperatures of several hundred degrees Celsius.
Depending on the duration of the exhaust
gas measurements, the sampling probe of the
exhaust gas measuring instrument may also
become extremely hot.
Safety measures::
¶¶ Always wear protective clothing, e.g. gloves.
¶¶ Allow the engine to cool down first. This also applies
to auxiliary heating systems.
¶¶ Keep connecting cables well away from all hot parts.
¶¶ Do not leave the engine running any longer than
necessary for the test or setting.

Danger of fire, Danger of explosion
3.7
There is a risk of fire and explosion from fuels
and fuel vapors when work is performed on the
fuel system or on the mixture control system.
en
Noise
Noise levels in excess of 70 dB(A) can occur
when measurements are carried out on a
vehicle, especially at high engine speeds. Damage to hearing may result if human beings
are exposed to noise at such levels over an
extended period of time.
Safety measures:
¶¶ Switch off the ignition.
¶¶ Allow the engine to cool down first.
¶¶ Avoid naked flames and potential sources of sparks.
¶¶ Do not smoke.
¶¶ Collect any leaked fuel.
¶¶ Always ensure effective ventilation and suction when
working in closed areas.
Safety measures:
¶¶ Noise protection facilities must be provided by the owner at all workplaces in the vicinity of the testing area.
¶¶ Suitable personal noise protection facilities must be
used by the operator.
3.6
3.8
Danger of asphyxiation
Car exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide
(CO) - a colorless, odorless gas. If inhaled,
carbon monoxide causes an oxygen deficiency
in the body. Extreme caution is therefore essential when working in a pit, as some of the
components of the exhaust gas are heavier
than air and settle at the bottom of the pit.
Caution is also necessary when working on
LPG-driven vehicles.
Danger of tripping
When conducting tests or making adjustments, the sensor and connection cables
increase the risk of tripping.
Safety measures:
¶¶ Route the connecting cables such that any risk of
tripping up is prevented.
Safety measures:
¶¶ Always ensure effective ventilation and suction (especially when working in a pit).
¶¶ Always switch on and connect the suction plant in a
closed area.

FCC Warning
3.10
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1)
this device may not cause harmful intererence, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note: changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, users and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee the interference
will not occur in a particular insatllation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
RR Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna;
RR Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver;
RR Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected;
RR Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network)
3.10.1 Important information on WLAN
WLAN stands for Wireless Local Area Network. As
with Bluetooth, WLAN provides a radio link on the free
2.4 GHz ISM band (ISM: Industrial, Scientific, Medical).
This frequency range is subject to government regulations, but may be used without a license in most countries. Consequently a large number of applications and
devices employ this frequency band for transmission.
This can result in frequency interference.
Depending on ambient conditions, the WLAN link may
therefore deteriorate, e.g. in the case of Bluetooth links,
cordless telephones, radio-controlled thermometers,
radio-controlled garage door openers, radio-controlled
light switches or radio-controlled alarm systems.
iiBluetooth can lead to interference in the bandwidth
of the WLAN network. The antennas of Bluetooth
and WLAN devices should be at least 30 centimeters
apart. Do not plug Bluetooth USB adapters and WLAN
sticks into adjacent USB slots on PCs/laptops. Use
the USB extension cable (special accessory) to maintain a distance between the Bluetooth USB adapter
and the WLAN stick on the PC/laptop.
iiExercise extreme caution if wearing pacemakers
or other vital electronic devices when using radio
systems, as proper functioning of these items could
be impaired.
Note the following to ensure the best possible connectivity:
RR The WLAN radio signal always tries to find the most
direct path. When setting up the PC/laptop and access point (see section 2.6.2), make sure there are
as few obstacles as possible (e.g. steel doors and
concrete walls), which could interfere with the radio
signal from and to the KTS 340. Inside buildings, the
range of the WLAN is also greatly influenced by the
construction materials used. Conventional masonry,
wooden walls and certain types of dry construction wall scarcely impede radio waves. Thin gypsum
walls can however cause problems, as considerable
amounts of moisture may accumulate in the gypsum
and result in the absorption of radio signals. Concrete (and in particular reinforced concrete) largely
blocks out radio waves. Cellar ceilings are often
impenetrable. Generally speaking, walls with a lot
of installed metal (e.g. pipes, wires) obstruct radio
waves.
RR Radio reception is also impeded by large metal
objects such as radiators and window frames as
well as active sources of interference such as DECT
telephones and microwave ovens.
RR Have your network infrastructure installed and
tested in advance by a data systems expert.

RR
safe place. Make sure these data are readily to hand
in case faults occur.
We recommend a thorough inspection of the premises on commissioning: Establish where in the
building the VCI works properly and where the operating limits are.
If the VCI is to be used in a vehicle, radio communication can be severely limited.
The radio link is affected by weather conditions. The
reception signal may therefore vary.
Please contact your network administrator with any
queries.
3.10.2 Information on access points
A wireless access point is an electronic device, which
acts as an interface between a radio network and a
cable-connected computer network. It provides a wireless connection between the KTS 340, the PC/laptop
with ESI[tronic] Startcenter and a printer, for example.
iiWe recommend using WLAN standard IEEE 802.11b
(data transmission rate max. 11 Mbps) for the
access point. The "extended range" function is not
supported.
Please note the following:
RR The access point should be located as centrally and
high up as possible, ideally under the ceiling.
RR The access point antenna should face downwards
towards the floor.
RR In the event of a poor connection it may be useful to
change the set channel on the access point. If possible, avoid using neighboring channels to channels
that are already in use.
RR We recommend that encryption of radio communications is configured at the access point.

3.13	 Notes for operation of automobile
ECU
Pay attention to the following when diagnosing the automobile equipped with computer control system:
RR Do not put the magnetic objects, such as radio
loudspeaker near the computer, because the magnetism of the loudspeaker will damage the circuits and
parts in ECU;
RR Never switch off the internal electrical devices when
