SETTINGS MENU
The settings menu contains two submenus: vehicle options and show settings. Each submenu is de-
scribed in this section.
VEHICLE OPTIONS:
There are two vehicle options available: Adjust Timing, and Adjust Idle. Both of these functions are dierent
than download features in that they both require that the vehicle is running during these adjustments. Further,
the vehicle must be running at full operating temperature of at least 180 degrees for either of these adjustment
options to work. These vehicle options will not work unless the correct condition are met.
Note: these vehicle options aren’t locked to any one vehicle. These options can be performed on an unlimited
amount of vehicles. Be sure to check the vehicle applications available before proceeding with any attempt to
make adjustments to another vehicle using these options.
• Adjust Timing: This vehicle option will adjust timing by plus or minus 2 degrees. See the instructions on how
to use this feature below. Read the warning below.
To use the adjust timing vehicle function follow the steps below:
1. From the Vehicle Options menu select Adjust Timing.
2. The next screen on the downloader will display the current
operating temperature of the vehicle, only if the operating
temperature is not within 180-201 degree.
3. Once in the Adjust timing screen use the up and down ar-
row buttons to highlight the desired timing adjustment. The
eects of the timing adjustment take place in real time as
the timing is displayed on the screen.
4. Press “Y” to set the timing adjustment.
5. After setting the desired timing adjustment simply press
the left arrow key to exit this vehicle option.
Note: this feature can be adjusted as many times as is neces-
sary to find the desired timing level.
Warning using this vehicle option is at the risk of the vehicle owner.
Advancing timing can cause predetonation or “pinging.” If you experience either one of these you must imme-
diately use a higher octane fuel or reverse the vehicle option back to the stock position. If you are not educated
on what advancing timing or retarding timing does to the engine or what its aects on the engine are, it is not
recommended that you use this feature.
