measurement. The G-Analyzer is only for reference
and should not be used to confirm the horsepower
specifications of your vehicle.

To prevent damage to the machine, take
the following precautions:
• Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V DC

in areas exposed to direct sunlight, excessive heat or
humidity. Also avoid places with too much dust or
the possibility of water splashing.
• To prevent deterioration, do not touch the terminals
of the unit or faceplate with your fingers.
