NOTE:
The flashlight icon in the SyncUP DRIVE
TM
App will trigger the smartphone flashlight.
Plug in Your Device
Insert the OBDII device into the OBDII port for a
snug fit.

The SyncUp DRIVE device needs to
connect to the network in order to complete the
setup. Ensure you are in an area without any
coverage issues like an underground garage.
Start Driving
Once the device has a cellular connection, it will
generate a GPS lock.
A short 10-minute drive will complete the setup of
the device. The SyncUp DRIVE App will confirm a
successful connection.

Do not use your phone or the
SyncUp DRIVE App while driving. Do not unplug
the device for 24 hours post installation.
