Updating Your Autel MaxiSys Mini Software

Keeping your MaxiSys Mini software updated ensures optimal performance and access to the latest features and vehicle coverage. There are three ways to update:

   • Connect your MaxiSys Mini to a Wi-Fi network.
   • Go to “Settings” > “Wi-Fi.”

2. Using the MaxiSys Icon:

   • From the home screen, tap the “MaxiSys” icon or the “M” button.
   • Select “Update.”

3. Via the Update Button: Tap the dedicated “Update” button on your device.

Remember to update both the Android system and the vehicle software. The MaxiSys Mini has 32GB of memory, allowing you to download updates for all vehicle makes without worrying about storage space.

Updating the VCI

The Vehicle Communication Interface (VCI) also requires regular updates:

1. Connect the VCI to your MaxiSys Mini using the provided USB cable. If using a J2534 MaxiFlash Box, connect the power supply to the VCI.
2. On the MaxiSys Mini home screen, swipe left to find the “VCI Manager.”
3. Check for and install any available VCI firmware updates. Check for VCI updates every six months.

Managing Vehicle Data

You can delete vehicle data from your MaxiSys Mini to free up space or remove unused files:
