Safety Information
For your own safety and the safety of others, and to prevent damage to the
device and vehicles upon which it is used, it is important that the safety
instructions presented throughout this manual be read and understood by all
persons operating or coming into contact with the device.
There are various procedures, techniques, tools, and parts for servicing
vehicles, as well as in the skill of the person doing the work. Because of the
vast number of test applications and variations in the products that can be
tested with this equipment, we cannot possibly anticipate or provide advice
or safety messages to cover every circumstance. It is the automotive
technician’s responsibility to be knowledgeable of the system being tested. It
is crucial to use proper service methods and test procedures. It is essential
to perform tests in an appropriate and acceptable manner that does not
endanger your safety, the safety of others in the work area, the device being
used, or the vehicle being tested.
Before using the device, always refer to and follow the safety messages and
applicable test procedures provided by the manufacturer of the vehicle or
equipment being tested. Use the device only as described in this manual.

Safety Instructions
The safety messages herein cover situations Autel is aware of. Autel cannot
know, evaluate or advise you as to all of the possible hazards. You must be
certain that any condition or service procedure encountered does not
jeopardize your personal safety.
DANGER
When an engine is operating, keep the service area WELL VENTILATED or
attach a building exhaust removal system to the engine exhaust system.
Engines produce carbon monoxide, an odorless, poisonous gas that causes
slower reaction time and can lead to serious personal injury or loss of life.
SAFETY WARNINGS
Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.
Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards.
Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away from all
moving or hot engine parts.
Operate the vehicle in a well ventilated work area, for exhaust gases are
poisonous.
Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or NEUTRAL
(for manual transmission) and make sure the parking brake is engaged.
Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle
unattended while testing.
Be extra cautious when working around the ignition coil, distributor cap,
ignition wires and spark plugs. These components create hazardous
voltages when the engine is running.
Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline, chemical, and electrical
fires nearby.
Do not connect or disconnect any test equipment while the ignition is on
or the engine is running.
Keep the test equipment dry, clean, free from oil, water or grease. Use a
mild detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the equipment as
necessary.
Do not drive the vehicle and operate the test equipment at the same time.
Any distraction may cause an accident.
iv
Refer to the service manual for the vehicle being serviced and adhere to
all diagnostic procedures and precautions. Failure to do so may result in
personal injury or damage to the test equipment.
To avoid damaging the test equipment or generating false data, make
sure the vehicle battery is fully charged and the connection to the vehicle
DLC is clean and secure.
Do not place the test equipment on the distributor of the vehicle. Strong
electro-magnetic interference can damage the equipment.

Establish Vehicle Communication
The IMMO operations require connecting the MaxiIM IM608 tablet to the test
vehicle through the MaxiFlash using the main cable and the included USB
cable (2m). To establish proper vehicle communication to the tablet, you need
to perform the following steps:
1. Connect the MaxiFlash to the vehicle’s DLC for both communication and
power source.
2. Connect the MaxiFlash to the tablet via BT pairing, or USB connection.
3. When the above steps are completed, check the VCI navigation button
at the bottom bar on the screen, if a green check displays at the lower
right corner, the MaxiIM IM608 Pro is ready to start vehicle diagnosis.
Vehicle Connection
The method used to connect the MaxiFlash to a vehicle’s DLC depends on
the vehicle’s configuration as follows:
A vehicle equipped with an On-board Diagnostics Two (OBD II)
management system supplies both communication and 12-volt power
through a standardized J-1962 DLC.
A vehicle not equipped with an OBD II management system supplies
communication through a DLC connection, and in some cases supplies
12-volt power through the cigarette lighter receptacle or a connection to
the vehicle battery.
89
OBD II Vehicle Connection
This type of connection only requires the main cable without any additional
adapter.
To connect to an OBD II vehicle
1. Connect the main cable’s female adapter to the Vehicle Data
Connector on the MaxiFlash, and tighten the captive screws.
2. Connect the cable’s 16-pin male adapter to the vehicle’s DLC, which
is generally located under the vehicle dashboard.
NOTE
The vehicle’s DLC is not always located under the dashboard; refer to the
user manual of the test vehicle for additional connection information.
Non-OBD II Vehicle Connection
This type of connection requires both the main cable and a required OBD I
adapter for the specific vehicle being serviced.
There are three possible conditions for Non-OBD II vehicle connection:
DLC connection supplies both communication and power.
DLC connection supplies communication and power is to be supplied via
the cigarette lighter connection.
DLC connection supplies communication and power is to be supplied via
connection to the vehicle battery.
To connect to a Non-OBD II Vehicle
1. Connect the main cable’s female adapter to the Vehicle Data
Connector on the MaxiFlash, and tighten the captive screws.
2. Locate the required OBD I adapter and connect its 16-pin jack to the
main cable’s male adapter.
3. Connect the attached OBD I adapter to the vehicle’s DLC.
NOTE
Some adapters may have more than one adapter or may have test leads
instead of an adapter. Whatever the case, make the proper connection to the
vehicle’s DLC as required.
90
To connect the cigarette lighter
1. Plug the DC power connector of the cigarette lighter into the DC
power supply input port on the device.
2. Connect the male connector of the cigarette lighter into the vehicle’s
cigarette lighter receptacle.
NOTE
After the MaxiFlash is successfully connected to the vehicle, the Power LED
on the device illuminates, and a brief beep sound will be heard.
VCI Connection
After the MaxiFlash is properly connected to the vehicle, the Power LED on
the MaxiFlash illuminates solid green, and is ready to establish
communication with the tablet.
The Wireless Diagnostic Interface supports two communication methods with
the tablet: BT and USB.
Pairing Up via BT
Among all methods, BT pairing is recommended as the first choice for the
communication between the tablet and the MaxiFlash. The working range for
BT communication is about 210 feet (70 m); this means you can perform key
programming and vehicle diagnosis freely around the workshop with greater
convenience.
If you use more than one MaxiFlash to connect to the test vehicles when
customers are many, you can perform key programming and vehicle
diagnosis on various vehicles conveniently, by pairing the tablet separately
to each of the MaxiFlash connected to the different test vehicles, via BT,
without the need to repeat the plugging and unplugging procedure, which is
unavoidable through traditional wired connection, thus saves you more time
and provides more efficiency.
To pair up the tablet with the MaxiFlash via BT
1. If not already done, power up the tablet.
2. Select the VCI Manager application from the MaxiIM Job Menu.
3. When the VCI Manager application is opened, the device
91
automatically starts scanning for available VCI devices around for
BT pairing. The found devices are listed in the Setting section on the
right side of the screen.
NOTE
If no VCI device is found, this may indicate that the signal strength of the
transmitter is too weak to be detected. In this case try to get closer to the
device, or reposition the VCI device, and remove all possible objects that may
cause signal interference. When done, tap the Scan button at the top right
corner to start searching again.
4. The VCI device name displays as MaxiFlash suffixed with a serial
number. Select the required device for pairing.
5. When pairing is successfully done, the connection status displayed
to the right of the device name is shown as Paired.
6. Wait for a few seconds, and the VCI button on the system Navigation
bar at the bottom of the screen shall display a green check,
indicating the tablet is connected to the MaxiFlash, and is ready to
perform vehicle diagnosis.
Refer to
BT Pairing on page 185 for additional information.
USB Cable Connection
The USB cable connection is a simple and quick way to establish
communication between the tablet and the MaxiFlash. After properly
connecting the USB cable from the tablet to the MaxiFlash, the VCI navigation
button at the bottom bar of the screen shows a green check in a few seconds,
and the USB LED on the MaxiFlash illuminates solid green, indicating the
connection between the devices is successful.
The MaxiIM tablet is now ready to perform key programming and vehicle
diagnosis.
No Communication Message
A. If the tablet is not connected to the MaxiFlash, an “Error” message
displays. An “Error” message indicates the tablet is not communicating
with the MaxiFlash, and so cannot gain access to the vehicle control
module. In this case, you need to do the following check-ups:
92
Check if the MaxiFlash is powered on.
In case of wireless connection, check if the network is configured
correctly, or if the right device has been paired.
If during the diagnosis process, communication is suddenly
interrupted due to the loss of signal, check if there are any objects
that causes signal interruption.
Check if the MaxiFlash is properly positioned. It is recommended to
put the MaxiFlash with the front side up.
Try standing closer to the MaxiFlash to obtain more stable signals,
and faster communication speed. In case of wired connection, check
the cable connection between the tablet and the MaxiFlash.
Check if the green LED on the MaxiFlash is illuminated for BT or
USB.
Check if the Error LED on the MaxiFlash is on, this may indicate
there is a communication error between the devices, in this case try
re-establishing the connection again; if this does not work, there may
be a hardware problem with the device, in this case contact Autel or
local distributor for technical support.
B. If the MaxiFlash is unable to establish a communication link, a prompt
message displays with check instructions. The following conditions are
the possible causes for this massage to display:
The MaxiFlash is unable to establish a communication link with the
vehicle.
You’ve selected a system for testing that the vehicle is not equipped
with.
There is a loose connection.
There is a blown vehicle fuse.
There is a wiring fault on the vehicle, or the data cable or adapter.
There is a circuit fault in the data cable or adapter.
Incorrect vehicle identification was entered.

Function Descriptions
This section describes the various functions of each diagnostic option:
DTC & FFD
When this function is selected, the screen displays a list of Stored Codes and
Pending Codes. When the Freeze Frame data of certain DTCs are available
for viewing, a snowflake button will display on the right side of the DTC item.
The erase codes function can be applied by tapping the Clear DTC button at
the bottom of the screen.
Stored Codes
Stored codes are the current emission related DTCs from the ECM of the
vehicle. OBD II/EOBD Codes have a priority according to their emission
severity, with higher priority codes overwriting lower priority codes. The
priority of the code determines the illumination of the MIL and the codes
erase procedure. Manufacturers rank codes differently, so expect to see
differences between makes.
Pending Codes
These are codes whose setting conditions were met during the last drive
Figure 6-9 Sample DTC & FFD Screen
136
cycle, but need to be met on two or more consecutive drive cycles before
the DTC actually sets. The intended use of this service is to assist the
service technician after a vehicle repair and after clearing diagnostic
information, by reporting test results after a driving cycle.
a) If a test failed during the driving cycle, the DTC associated with that
test is reported. If the pending fault does not occur again within 40
to 80 warm-up cycles, the fault is automatically cleared from memory.
b) Test results reported by this service do not necessarily indicate a
faulty component or system. If test results indicate another failure
after additional driving, then a DTC is set to indicate a faulty
component or system, and the MIL is illuminated.
Freeze Frame
In most cases the stored frame is the last DTC that occurred. Certain
DTCs, which have a greater impact on vehicle emission, have a higher
priority. In these cases, the top prioritized DTC is the one for which the
freeze frame records are retained. Freeze frame data includes a
“snapshot” of critical parameter values at the time the DTC is set.
Clear DTC
This option is used to clear all emission related diagnostic data such as,
DTCs, freeze frame data and manufacturer specific enhanced data from
the vehicle’s ECM.
A confirmation screen displays when the clear codes option is selected
to prevent accidental loss of data. Select Yes on the confirmation screen
to continue or No to exit.
I/M Readiness
This function is used to check the readiness of the monitoring system. It is an
excellent function to use prior to having a vehicle inspected for compliance to
a state emissions program. Selecting I/M Readiness opens a submenu with
two choices:
Since DTCs Cleared – displays the status of monitors since the last time
the DTCs are erased.
This Driving Cycle – displays the status of monitors since the beginning
of the current drive cycle.
137
Live Data
This function displays the real time PID data from ECU. Displayed data
includes analog inputs and outputs, digital inputs and outputs, and system
status information broadcast on the vehicle data stream.
Live data can be displayed in various modes, see Live Data on page 123 for
detailed information.
On-Board Monitor
This option allows you to view the results of On-Board Monitor tests. The tests
are useful after servicing or after erasing a vehicle’s control module memory.
Component Test
This service enables bi-directional control of the ECM so that the diagnostic
tool is able to transmit control commands to operate the vehicle systems. This
function is useful in determining whether the ECM responds to a command
well.
Vehicle Information
The option displays the vehicle identification number (VIN), the calibration
identification, and the calibration verification number (CVN), and other
information of the test vehicle.
Vehicle Status
This item is used to check the current condition of the vehicle, including
communication protocols of OBD II modules, retrieved codes amount, status
of the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL), and other additional information.

would be the phone number under which all TeamViewer Clients can be
reached separately. Computers and mobile devices that run TeamViewer are
identified by a globally unique ID. The first time the Remote Desk application
is started, this ID is generated automatically based on the hardware
characteristics and will not change later on.
Make sure the Display Tablet is connected to the Internet before launching
the Remote Desk application, so that the Display Tablet is accessible to
receive remote support from the third party.

are properly updated.
Make sure the tablet is connected to the Internet.
Check all cables, connections, and indicators to see if the signal is
being received.
B. When battery life is shorter than usual:
This may happen when you are in an area with low signal strength.
Turn off your device if is not in use.
C. When you cannot turn on the tablet:
Make sure the tablet is connected to a power source or the battery
is charged.
D. When you are unable to charge the tablet:
Your charger maybe out of order. Contact your nearest dealer.
You may be attempting to use the device in an overly hot/cold
temperature. Try changing the charging environment.
Your device may have not been connected to the charger properly.
Check the connector.
NOTE
If your problems persist, please contact Autel’s technical support personnel
or your local selling agent.
About Battery Usage
Your tablet is powered by a built-in Lithium-ion Polymer battery. This means
that, unlike other forms of battery technology, you can recharge your battery
while some charge remains without reducing your tablet’s autonomy due to
the “battery memory effect” inherent in those technologies.
189
DANGER
The built-in Lithium-ion Polymer battery is factory replaceable only; incorrect
replacement or tampering with the battery pack may cause an explosion.
Do not use a damaged battery charger.
Do not disassemble or open crush, bend or deform, puncture or shred.
Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the
battery, expose to fire, explosion or other hazard.
Make sure to use the charger and USB cables only that come together
in the package. If you use the other charger and USB cables, you might
incur malfunction or failure of the device.
Only use the charging device that has been qualified with device per the
standard. Use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of
fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
Avoid dropping the tablet. If the tablet is dropped, especially on a hard
surface, and the user suspects damage, take it to a service center for
inspection.
The closer you are to your network’s base station, the longer your tablet
usage time because less battery power is consumed for the connection.
The battery recharging time varies depending on the remaining battery
capacity.
Battery life inevitably shortens over time.
Since over charging may shorten battery life, remove the tablet from its
charger once it is fully charged. Unplug the charger, once charging is
complete.
Leaving the tablet in hot or cold places, especially inside a car in summer
or winter, may reduce the capacity and life of the battery. Always keep
the battery within normal temperatures.

license-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
Cet appareil est conforme aux CNR exempts de licence d’Industrie Canada.
Son fonctionnement est soumis aux deux conditions suivantes:
1. Ce dispositif ne peut causer des interferences; et
2. Ce dispositif doit accepter toute interférence, y compris les interférences
qui peuvent causer un mauvais fonctionnement de l’appareil.
WARNING
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE
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 uses 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 that interference will not occur in a particular installation. 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:
191
-- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
-- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
SAR
The radiated output power of this device is below the FCC radio frequency
exposure limits. Nevertheless, the device should be used in such a manner
that the potential for human contact is minimized during normal operation.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC
is 1.6 W/Kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual
SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value.
This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so
as to use only the power required to reach the network. To avoid the possibility
of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to
antenna should be minimized.
RF WARNING STATEMENT
The device has been evaluated to meet general RF exposure requirement.
The device can be used in portable exposure condition without restriction.
The term “IC” before the radio certification number only signifies that IC
technical specifications were met.
RoHS COMPLIANCE
This device is declared to be in compliance with the European RoHS Directive
2011/65/EU.
