3.3. Safety Precautions for the HG-VCI S 20
To avoid incorrect handling and resulting injury to the user or destruction of the HG-VCI S 20, observe the following:
• Do not touch the HG-VCI S 20 during the communication with the diagnostic tool (observe a minimum distance of 20
cm).
• Do not expose the HG-VCI S 20 to direct sunlight over an extended period of time.
• Make sure that HG-VCI S 20 does not come in contact with hot components.
• Make sure that the HG-VCI S 20 does not come in contact with rotating parts.
• Regularly check the connecting cables/accessories for damage. Risk of irreparable damage to the HG-VCI S 20 due
to short circuit.
• Use the HG-VCI S 20 only in accordance with these instructions.
• Make sure that the HG-VCI S 20 does not come in contact with fluids like water, oil or gasoline. The HG-VCI S 20 is
not watertight.
• Protect the HG-VCI S 20 from shocks and falls.
• Do not open the HG-VCI S 20. The HG-VCI S 20 may only be opened by a technician authorized by Hella Gutmann.
If the protective seal is damaged or unauthorized interventions are carried out on the device, the guarantee and war-
ranty will be void.
• If the HG-VCI S 20 malfunctions, immediately contact Hella Gutmann or a Hella Gutmann trading partner.
3.4. Safety Precautions for High Voltage/Line Voltage
Very high voltages occur in electrical systems. Due to voltage flashover on damaged components, such as marten dam-
age or touching live components, the risk of electric shock is likely. High voltage via the vehicle and line voltage via the
building's mains supply can cause severe injury or even death if adequate care is not taken. Voltage flashover can occur
e.g. on the primary and secondary side of the ignition system, the connection to the vehicle, the lighting systems or the
wiring harness with plug connections. Therefore regard the following:
• Only use power supply cables with grounding contact.
• Only use a checked or the attached power cord.
• Always use the original cable set.
• Regularly check cables and adapters for damage.
