-- Position the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mounting - VAS 6350/1A on the wheel bolts of the rear wheels.

Condition

• Position the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mounting VAS 6350/1A that the anti-theft wheel bolts do not touch the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mounting VAS 6350/1A.

-- Adjust the paddles -2-.

Condition

• The paddles -2- must be close to the ground and move easily and freely.

-- Position the calibration field -1- out of the Calibration Tool -VAS 6350A- at the -distance a- behind the vehicle.

Condition

• Dimension -a- = 400 mm to 1000 mm

-- Align the calibration field -1- parallel to the paddles -2-.

Condition

• Distance -dimension b- must be the same on both sides.

Tip

Note dimension -b- for the step later in the calibration. Ideal dimensions -b- = 1200 mm - 1700 mm

-- Switch on the Calibration Tool - Linear Laser -VAS 6350/3A- -1-

-- Press the measuring button.

Condition

• The laser beam of the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser -VAS 6350/2A- -2- must strike the paddle -1-.
• If the laser beam does not strike the paddle -1- in the center, then readjust the paddle -1-.

-- Write down the resulting value.

-- Repeat the procedure on the other side of the vehicle.

Condition

• The resulting values must be the same for both sides.
• If they differ, realign the Calibration Tool -VAS 6350A- until both values are the same.

-- Turn on the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser -VAS 6350/2A- and hold as shown in the display -1-.

-- Press the respective button of the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser -VAS 6350/2A- -2- :
