Note: 
WARNING!  -  Turn turbocharger tester on and select measuring range -I- (absolute 
pressure). 
-  Connect test hose to connection flange -I-.
Hoses must be connected so there is no possibility of leaks, otherwise 
incorrect readings may result. Ensure test hose is not pinched at the hood and/or window.By pressing the memory button "M" on the turbocharger tester, the last 
test value is stored until either memory button "M" is pressed again or 
the turbocharger tester is shut off. A blinking comma in the display field indicates a value has been 
stored. An arrow appears in the top left corner of the display field if the 
turbocharger tester battery voltage drops below the allowed 
specification. Before testing, drive vehicle briskly for at least 3 km (approx. 2 miles) 
without frequent stops. Always use a second technician to take measurements via the 
VAG1397A turbocharger tester when test-driving vehicle for this 
test. Follow "WARNING!"   Page 21
