from the center of dashboard. See Figure DLC Location. If DLC is not equipped under dashboard, a label indicating

its position will be given. In case no DLC is found, please refer to Automobile Repair Manual;

2. Plug the connector into the vehicle's DLC(It is suggested to use the OBD II extension cable to connect the DLC and the

connector). For vehicles with non-16PIN DLC, please choose the desired connector. Normally the power indicator of
