IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS - SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
1. Warning!
Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s
recommended attachments.
2. Warning!
Do not operate equipment with a damaged cord or if the equipment has
been dropped or damaged – until it has been examined by a qualified
service person.
3. Danger!
The high voltage battery provides hazardous voltages. Make sure that
nobody comes in contact with connections of the hybrid battery, connecting
cables of the hybrid battery or other visible parts under high voltage.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

405 360 01 000 iv
4. Danger!
Do not touch the ends of test adapters and probe tips during high
voltage insulation measurement.
If the ends of test adapters/probe tips are disconnected or are connected to
an ohmic test object for measurement, then a current of up to 1 mA with a
voltage of 250 … 1000 V would flow through your body if touched. The
electrical shock is noticeable, however the electrical current does not reach
fatal levels.
After high voltage insulation measurement, high voltage decreases on the
probe tips. It is displayed on the VAS 5051B, VAS 5052A and VAS 6150
(specified laptop) as soon as the high voltage is decreased. Make sure that
nobody comes in contact with the test adapters/probe tips as long as high
voltage is applied!
5. Danger!
Carry out the absence of voltage measurement always only with the
hybrid measurement adapter for voltage measurement VAS 6558A/1-1*
For other measurements use the hybrid measurement adapter for
leakage resistance measurement, VAS 6558A/1-2* or the hybrid
measurement adapter for air conditioning compressor,
VAS 6558A/1-3*. In any case observe the user guidance of the software!
6. Warning!
The test object must be de-energised during high voltage insulation
measurement.
For this reason, carry out a voltage measurement before every high voltage
insulation measurement! Make sure that the test object is de-energised
during high voltage insulation measurement!
*) Only for use with VW Tuareg, Audi Q5, Porsche Cayenne and Porsche
Panamera!
For VW Jetta use the VAS6558/9-X adaptors!

7. Danger!
Opening the VAS 6558A without permission, or making unauthorised
modifications, can expose both yourself and the device to serious danger.
8. Warning!
Do not let cord hang over edge of table, bench or counter, or come in
contact with hot manifolds or moving fan blades.
9. Warning!
An extension cord is not allowed. For testing use only specified cables.
10. Warning!
To reduce the risk of fire, do not operate equipment in the vicinity of open
containers of flammable liquids (gasoline).
11. Warning!
Adequate ventilation should be provided when working on operating internal
combustion engines.
12. Warning!
Risk of explosions
The VAS 6558A has internal parts which emit sparks and therefore must
not be exposed to flammable fumes. The VAS 6558A should be operated at
least 460 mm (18 inches) above the floor surface since fumes from fuels
and other materials accumulate at floor level.

13. Warning!
Care must be taken as burns can occur from touching hot parts.
14. Warning!
Let equipment cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely
around equipment when storing.
15. Warning!
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from moving
parts.
16. Warning!
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use on wet surfaces or expose
to rain.
17. Warning!
ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses.
18. Warning!
The VAS 6558A may only be used within the measurement ranges
stipulated in the technical data and descriptions in the operating manual. Do
not perform measurements on damaged leads.

19. Warning!
Electrical ignition systems have voltages up to approx. 30 kV. Observe
general safety guidelines for workshops at all times.
20. Caution! when connecting non-VW vehicles!
The VAS 6558 has been developed for vehicles from the Volkswagen
group. Connecting the VAS 6558A directly to vehicles from other
manufacturers can therefore result in damage to the vehicle and / or the
VAS 6558A.
21. Caution! when cleaning the VAS 6558A
Before cleaning the VAS 6558A, pull out the USB cable and measuring
cables!
Clean the VAS 6558A only with a dry cloth.
Do not use cleaners or solvents.
