Calibration Board Alignment

-- Position the calibration platform behind the vehicle at a distance of 1.47 m to 1.90 m to the rear wheels, see -dimension A- in the illustration, refer to Installed Calibration ToolVAS6350 Overview .

-- Bring the Calibration ToolVAS6350 into a horizontal position.

-- To do this, twist plastic feet under calibration device so that air bubble in level is located exactly in the center of the indicator -arrow-.

WARNING:

Make sure light does not reflect off the calibration platform.

Reflections affect the Rearview Camera -R189- and may make it impossible to perform the calibration.

-- Switch on the Linear LaserVAS6350/3A -1- on the calibration board and adjust the entire Calibration ToolVAS6350 so that the laser beam hits the center of vehicle rear above the Audi rings.
