-
Press the “Get Current” button. The currently stored information in the ASSYST PLUS should be displayed.

From this screen you can view/modify the service history records that are stored inside the ASSYST. There are up to 5 records in the ASSYST. The ASSYST device also keeps history of up to 16 times when oil has been added. All these records hold the main odometer at which the event happened. With the help of this special application it is possible to modify this history.
It is also possible to view/modify all service history related information, which is stored in the Configuration of Central Gateway. You can access this screen, by pressing the “CGW Explorer” button. From this screen you can change the history in both ASSYST and ASSYST PLUS devices.
Important: You can always verify the results from the changes you have made, by opening a standard diagnostic session with both ASSYST and ASSYST PLUS from the main screen and observing their “Actual Values”.
