t  Do not touch or disconnect ignition cables when the engine is running or being turned at starter speed.
t  Switch off ignition before connecting or disconnecting injection and ignition system wiring as well as test instrument cables.
Note the following if testers and measuring instruments have to be used during a road test:
t  Test and measuring instruments must always be secured to rear seat and operated by a second person from this location.
If test and measuring instruments are operated from front passenger seat and the vehicle is involved in an accident, there is a possibility that the person sitting in this seat may receive serious injuries when the airbag is triggered.
