This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital d evince, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reason able 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 ace ordnance 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 t his 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:

• 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 receive r is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following tw o conditions (1)this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must ac cept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

SAR Information Statement

Your Automotive Diagnostic Tool is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for Automotive Diagnostic Tool 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 with the Automotive Diagnostic Tool 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 Automotive Diagnostic Tool while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the Automotive Diagnostic Tool is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a  Automotive Diagnostic Tool model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this Automotive Diagnostic Tool when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.71 W/Kg (Body-worn measurements differ among Automotive Diagnostic Tool models, depending upon available accessories and  FCC requirements).

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various Automotive Diagnostic Tool and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this Automotive Diagnostic Tool with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this Automotive Diagnostic Tool is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccidaftersearchingon FCC ID: 2AUARTOOL T900 Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com. * In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for

Automotive Diagnostic Tool used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. The SAR test distance is 0mm.

IC Statement

1. This device may not cause interference; and www.mythinkcar.com
2. This device must accept any interference, including interference that may causeundesired red operation of the device.

The term “IC: ” before the certification/registration number only signifies that the Industry Canada technical specifications were met. This product meets the applicable Industry Cana da technical specifications.

Functions Description

The THINKTOOL T900 main unit has the following 9 functions:
Scan: This module has Autos arch (automatic scanning of car models vin), manualcar models, Demo {demonstration of the diagnosis process), History {diagnosis records), OBD&IM (9 emission-related module diagnosis)
OBD: Support OBD II and EOBD protocols after 1996, diagnosing all problems.
TPMS: For initial use, please follow the steps below to enter the TPMS function menu.

Activate Sensor

This function allows users to activate TPMS sensor to view sensor data such as sensor ID, tire pressure, tire frequency, tire temperature and battery condition. For universal sensors, place the tool alongside the valve stem, point toward the sensor location, and press the OK button. Once the sensor is successfully activated and decoded, THINKTOOL T900 will vocally announce that the sensor is activated and the screen will display the sensor data.

Notes:

1. For early magnet-activated sensors, place the magnet over the stem and then place the THINKTOOL T900 alongside the valve stem.
2. If the TPMS sensor requires tire deflation (of the order of I OPS/), then deflate the tire and place the THINKTOOL T900 alongside the stem while pressing the OK button.

Repeat this step to check other vehicle sensors. After all sensors are successfully activated, the following interface will appear.

Program Sensor

This function allows users to program sensor data to THINKCAR sensors to replace faulty sensors that are with low battery capacity or not functioning. The following options are available for programming THINKCAR sensors: Automatically Create (Auto), Manually Create (Manual) and Copy ID by Activation (Replication).

Auto: This function is designed to program THINKCAR sensors by applying random IDs created according to the test vehicle when it is unable to obtain the original sensor IDs. Select the wheel which needs to be programmed, place a THINKCAR sensor close to the TPMS antenna of the tool, and select “Auto” to create a random sensor ID.

Manual: This function allows users to manually input sensor ID. Users can input a random ID or the original sensor ID if it is available.

Replication: This function allows users to write in the retrieved original sensor data to the THINKCAR sensor. It is used after the original sensor is activated.

Programming steps:

a. Place a THINKCAR sensor close to the TPMS antenna of the tool
b. Select the wheel {FL, FR, RL, RR) that the sensor is to be installed in
c. Select the programming method (Auto, Manual, Replication)
d. Click “Programming”

The programming process normally takes less than 1 minute, and it vocally announces the programming result, with sensor data displayed on the screen after it completes.

Relearn Sensor

This function allows users to check and view the detailed TPMS sensor relearn procedures. Relearn operation applies only when the newly programmed sensor IDs are different from the original sensor IDs stored in the vehicle’s ECU. Relearn is used to write the newly programmed sensor IDs into the vehicle’s ECU for sensor recognition.

Reset: Supports the most common multiple maintenance and reset functions, it involves in 28 reset functions, there are shown as follows: Maintenance Light Reset {OIL); Steering Angle Reset (SAS); Battery Matching (BMS); ABS Exhaust (ABS); Throttle Matching {ETS); Brake Pad Reset (EPB); DPF Regeneration (DPF); Antitheft Matching (AFS); Injector Coding (INJEC); Tire Pressure Reset (TPMS); Suspension Level Calibration (SUS); Headlight Matching (AFS); Gearbox Matching(Gearbox); Sunroof Initialization (SUN); EGRA adaption (EGR); Gear Learning (Gear); ODO Reset (ODO); Airbag Reset (Airbag); Transport Mode (Transport); A/F Reset (A/F); Stop/Start Reset (Stop/Start); NOx Sensor Reset (NOx); Ad Blue Reset (Diesel Engine Exhaust Gas Filter) (Ad Blue); Seat Calibration (Seats); Coolant Bleeding (Coolant); Tyre Reset (Tyre); Windows Calibration(Windows); Language Settings (Language).
