Calibrating Front Camera

Information 

• Vehicles with front axle lift system: Set the front axle lift system to "lower". 
• Vehicles with adjustable chassis: Set the chassis to "normal" (medium height). 
• The vehicle must be on a level surface. 

Information 

The required height of the calibration board and the distance of the calibration board from the vehicle will not be displayed on the wheel alignment computer. These values are stored under Front camera calibration in the Tester.
