How To Check/Adjust Front Radar Installation Angle - Stop Mode

NOTE:

Check for vehicle alignment and tire pressure for accurate radar calibration.
Put the vehicle on the level ground.
Check that the front surface of the front radar is clean.
Perform in an area with minimum clearance of 8 m (26.4 ft) front, 4 m (13.2 ft) sides, and 2 m (6.6 ft) above the vehicle.
The reflector has to be installed at same place (height and angle) as front radar center. (If height and angle are different, then adjustment can not be done correctly.)
Remove objects (metal plates, resins, etc.) that may cause electric signal interference from the area where front radar alignment is performed.
Be sure that the vehicle is not moved and free from vibration when performing front radar alignment (getting in/out or opening/closing doors).
When performing front radar alignment, the ignition has to be in the ON position (not in Ready mode).

Park the vehicle on a flat ground.
