1 Carry out preconditions and tests for vehicle level measurement   AR40.00-P-0202A 
2 Clean measurement areas (a and b) IMPORTANT This prevents any measuring errors.  
3 Place measurement sensor (086a) in center of left front spring link (17) (measuring point 1), read vehicle level off inclinometer (086) and save IMPORTANT The measurement sensor (086a) must be placed in the front axle measurement area (a) as illustrated. The measurement sensor connecting cable (086b) must face towards the vehicle center.  
4 Place measurement sensor (086a) in center of right front spring link (17) (measuring point 2), read vehicle level off inclinometer (086) and save IMPORTANT The measurement sensor (086a) must be placed in the front axle measurement area (a) as illustrated. The measurement sensor connecting cable (086b) must face towards the vehicle center.  
5 Place measurement sensor (086a) in center of left rear axle shaft (65) (measuring point 3), read vehicle level off inclinometer (086) and save IMPORTANT The measurement sensor (086a) must be placed in the rear axle measurement area (b) as illustrated. The measurement sensor connecting cable (086b) must face towards the vehicle center.  
6 Place measurement sensor (086a) in center of right rear axle shaft (65) (measuring point 4), read vehicle level off inclinometer (086) and save IMPORTANT The measurement sensor (086a) must be placed in the rear axle measurement area (b) as illustrated. The measurement sensor connecting cable (086b) must face towards the vehicle center.
