Preliminary Work

Information 

Calibrating the reversing camera balances the tires, chassis tolerances and installation tolerances of the camera.

• The calibration unit VAS 6350 WE 1368 and the spacing laser VAS 6350/2 WE 1369 are needed for calibration. 
• During calibration, the control unit for the reversing camera calculates the vehicle-specific adjustment values (e.g. image rectification) for the camera image. 
• After the actual calibration process, which takes approx. 2 minutes, the rectified image is shown on the vehicle display. 

Information 

Calibration must only be performed on level ground.

1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and set up the calibration unit VAS 6350 WE 1368  behind the vehicle in accordance with the operating instructions.

2. Fit the wheel nut support with the right reflector and the wheel nut support with the left reflector on the vehicle in accordance with the operating instructions for calibration unit VAS 6350 WE 1368  . The reflectors must be hanging freely.
