- Turning on and off. Refer to the Operating Instructions.
- Measurement Scale
- For positioning the Calibration Tool - Lane Change Calibration Tool - VAS6350/4-
- Dimension to be adjusted measuring point on steel ruler = 678 mm
- Calibration Tool - Lane Change Calibration Tool - VAS6350/4-
- Is moved from the left to the right side of measuring field during calibration
- When installed correctly, vehicle electrical system voltage line must be connected at bottom left of calibration tool (as seen in direction of travel)
- Height of the upper edge of the calibration device to the floor: approximately 618 mm
Special tools and workshop equipment required
- Calibration Unit - VAS6350A-
- Vehicle Diagnostic Tester
Various preparation work procedures must be performed before the actual calibration procedure using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
Requirements:
- Move the vehicle onto a secure flat surface.
- Apply the parking brake - the vehicle must not move during the measurement.
- Place the front wheels in a straight-ahead position - steering wheel in 0 position.
- No persons may be in the vehicle interior during the measurement.
- Do not open and close the vehicle doors during calibration.
Procedure
- Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
- Turn on the ignition.
- Tighten three wheel bolt adapters (17 mm) for the wheel bolts on each Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings - VAS6350/1-.
- Insert the measuring paddle on both Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings - VAS6350/1- and secure it with the locking nut.
- Place the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings - VAS6350/1- onto the wheel bolts on both rear wheels.
- The wheel center sensor rotation center must be in wheel rotation center.
NOTE: Place the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings - VAS6350/1- on the wheels so that the "anti-theft wheel bolts" are not connected with wheel center mounting. - Adjust the measuring paddle using the lock nuts so that they move freely just above the floor.
- The measuring paddles must move easily.
- The measuring paddles must be vertical.
- Position the Calibration Tool - VAS6350- at distance -a- to the rear wheels.
- Dimension -a- = 1700 ± 2 mm
- Switch on the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser - VAS6350/2- with the [ON] button.
Display on the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser - VAS6350/2-:
- "- - - m"
NOTE:
The laser is switched on at same time.
- Hold the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser - VAS6350/2- -2- flush against the catch bracket, as shown in the illustration, for the distance measurement.
- The Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser - VAS6350/2- must lie firmly against the catch bracket.
- Make sure the "laser beam" for the distance measurement contacts the paddle on lower enlarged part -1-.
If that is not the case, correct the measuring paddle height using the locking nuts on the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings - VAS6350/1-.
- Briefly press [ON] button for distance measurement.
Display on the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser - VAS6350/2-:
- "1.700 m" (specified value: 1700 ± 2 mm).
- Repeat the measurement procedure from the left catch bracket to measuring paddle on left rear wheel.
- The distance value must be the same on both sides.
If both measured values are not the same, adjust the Calibration Unit - VAS6350A- accordingly.
NOTE:
The vehicle in the illustration is only a basic outline.
- Secure the Calibration Tool - Lane Change Calibration Tool - VAS6350/4- to the Calibration Tool - VAS6350- mount on the rear left side.
- When installed correctly, vehicle electrical system voltage line must be connected at bottom left of calibration device (as seen in direction of travel).
- Dimension -a- = 618 mm (measured from the upper edge of calibration device to workshop floor).
- The adjustment dimension is set with the measuring point -arrow- on the base of the calibration device on the scale of the steel ruler -1-.
- Left adjustment dimension = 678 mm (read on measurement scale -1-).
- Connect the Calibration Tool - Lane Change Calibration Tool - VAS6350/4- to the vehicle electrical system voltage.
- Using the bubble level (level indicator) -arrow-, bring the Calibration Tool - VAS6350- into a horizontal position by turning the plastic bases.
- Wear laser protective eyewear.NOTE: The vehicle in the illustration is only a basic outline.
- Turn on the Calibration Tool - Linear Laser - VAS6350/3- on the Calibration Tool - VAS6350-.
- Align the entire Calibration Tool - VAS6350- so that the laser beam shines on the center of the vehicle rear above the VW logo.
- Check right and left distance between catch bracket on Calibration Device - VAS6350- and measuring paddle -1- on wheel mountings again.
- Specified value: 1700 ± 2 mm
