Powering On/Off and Emergency Shutdown
Powering On
Press and release the Power button 
to turn the diagnostic tool on.
The system boots up, then opens the ShopStream Diagnostic Suite Home screen.
The power button is also the battery status indicator.
Powering Off
All vehicle communication must be terminated BEFORE turning off the diagnostic tool. A warning message displays if you attempt to turn the diagnostic tool off while communicating with the vehicle. Forcing a shut down while communicating may lead to ECM problems on some vehicles. Never disconnect the Compact Scan Module when the diagnostic tool is communicating with the vehicle ECM.
Before turning the diagnostic tool off, it is highly recommended to back up personal and saved data to a USB mass storage device on a regular basis to prevent loss in the event of system corruption or hard disk drive failure, see Data Backup.
