TPMS TOOL user guide UM-36600A-U User manual ATEQ VT56 Page 8/42 6. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 6.1. TPMS TOOL OVERVIEW Read and diagnose sensors, OBD2 ECU reset and transfer data to ECU. Note: With most vehicles, if the vehicle is in “learn mode” the vehicle will also confirm that the TPM sensor has communicated to the ECM with a series of horn beeps. Service Procedure Section 1.0: Read Sensor Test Before servicing the tires/wheels, using your TPMS TOOL, trigger each of the vehicle's sensors to make sure they are working properly. This will eliminate the liability associated with replacing previously damaged or defective sensors. This procedure will not change the vehicle settings because the vehicle has yet to be put into learn/retraining mode. This procedure allows you to quickly identify damaged or defective sensors, because some vehicles do not report a damaged or defective sensor condition on the instrument cluster for up to 20 minutes. Note: If the sensors do not trigger, please refer to the Troubleshooting section of this Guide. Perform tire/wheel service. For vehicles that require retraining, please see to Section 2.0 Section 2.0: Learning TPM System With the vehicle in learn mode, begin by triggering the driver's front left (LF) wheel sensor. Many vehicles will provide an audible chirp confirming that the sensor ID has been learned by the vehicle on board computer. The communication between the sensor and the on board computer is also confirmed on LCD display of the TOOL. The same procedure should be followed on all wheel sensors, in a clockwise rotation, until all the vehicle sensors have been retrained. After triggering the driver's rear wheel sensor, some vehicles will chirp twice indicating that the TPM system has been retrained. 1 Start FL 4 End RL FR 2 RR 3 Fig. 1 For vehicles that do not require retraining, we recommend you trigger each wheel sensor, one final time, to make sure they are working correctly prior to releasing the vehicle to the customer.

SAFETY BATTERY AND CHARGE INFORMATION You must read and understand these safety instructions and warnings before using or charging your lithium polymer batteries. Operating environment Remember to follow any special current regulations any area, and always switch off your device when its use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger. Use the device only in its normal operating positions. Your device and its enhancements may contain small part. Keep them out of the reach of small children. About Charging Use only the charger supplied with your device. Use of another type of charger will result in malfunction and/or danger. When the red LED turns off, the charge is complete. About the Charger Do not use the charger in a high moisture environment. Never touch the charger when your hands or feet are wet. Allow ventilation around the charger when using it. Do not cover the charger with paper or other objects that will reduce cooling. Do not use the charger while it is inside a carrying case. Connect the charger to a proper power source. The voltage requirements are found on the product case and/or packaging. Do not use the charger if the wires become damaged. Do not attempt to service the unit. There are no serviceable parts inside. Replace the unit if it is damaged or exposed to excess moisture. This charger is not a toy and should not be used by children or infirm persons without proper training or supervision. Do not use it as a power source. Unplug it before attempting to service or clean it. About the Battery CAUTION: This unit contains an internal Lithium Polymer battery. The battery can burst or explode, releasing hazardous chemicals. To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush, pierce or dispose of the battery or the instrument in fire or water, do not short circuit or short the contacts with a metal object. Use a specified charger approved by the ATEQ manufacturer and supplied with the device. The tool must be returned to the factory for battery replacement. Opening the tool or tampering with the seal placed on the tool, if broken will void the warranty Safety for Lithium Polymer battery use NEVER leave the battery unattended during the charging process. The device must imperatively be placed on a non-flammable surface during charging (ceramic platter or metal box). Charge the Lithium Polymer battery ONLY with the charger provided. NEVER use a Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) type battery charger to charge a Lithium Polymer battery. If the battery begins to overheat more than 60°C (140° F), STOP IMMEDIATELY the charge. The battery should NEVER exceed 60°C (140° F) during the charging process. NEVER charge the battery immediately after use and while still hot. Leave it cool down to ambient temperature. If you see some smoke or some liquid out of the battery, stop the charge immediately. Disconnect the charger and place the tool in an isolated area for at least 15 minutes. DO NOT USE THE BATTERY AGAIN, return the device to your seller. Keep a fire extinguisher for electrical fires handy while charging the battery. In the unlikely event that the Lithium Polymer battery will ignite, DO NOT use water to extinguish the fire, take some sand or fire extinguisher described above. It must neutralize the Lithium Polymer battery elements unusable. The neutralization process must be performed with very strict security fit. It is recommended that you return

TPMS TOOL user guide UM-36600A-U User manual ATEQ VT56 Page 41/42 us the tool, we will collect the battery out of use and gives to a specialized recycler. Do not dispose of Lithium Polymer batteries to the dustbin. The Lithium Polymer battery is not suitable for children under 14 years. Do not let a Lithium Polymer battery reach of children To prevent leakage or other hazards, do not store batteries above 60°C (140°F). Never leave the battery inside a car (for example) where the temperature could be very high or in a place where temperatures could exceed 60°C (140°F). Store the battery in a dry place to avoid contact with liquid, whatever the type. Store the battery only on a nonflammable surface, heat resistant, non conductive and away from all flammable materials or sources. Always store the battery out of reach of children. A Lithium Polymer battery should be stored with a minimum charge of 30%. If you store completely discharged, it will quickly become unusable. If you don't follow these safety precautions, you may cause serious personal injury and damage to property; you may even cause a fire! The ATEQ Company disclaims any responsibility for damage sustained in case of non compliance with these safety instructions. Using a Lithium Polymer battery has a high risk of fires and can cause serious damages to property and persons, the user agrees to accept the risk and responsibility. The ATEQ Company couldn't control the proper use of the battery for each customer (charge, discharge, storage etc.); it can not be held responsible for damage to persons and property. 7. RECYCLING Do not dispose of the rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery or the tool and/or it accessories to the dustbin. These components must be collected and recycled.
