Preliminary Work

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 

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

• The > VAS 6350A - Calibration unit  and a > VAS 6350/2A - Spacing laser 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, the rectified image can be seen on the vehicle display.

Setup overview

The values are shown on the PIWIS Tester.

1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and set up the > VAS 6350A - Calibration unit  behind the vehicle in accordance with the operating instructions for VAS 6350.
2. Fit reflectors on wheel nut support:
   1. 2.1 For vehicles without central wheel lock:  Fit the wheel nut support with the right and left reflector on both rear wheels on the vehicle in accordance with the operating instructions for > VAS 6350A - Calibration unit  . The reflectors must be hanging freely.
   2. 2.2 For vehicles with central wheel lock:  Attach wheel-alignment adapter > VAS 6830 - Wheel-alignment adapter for wheels with central lock  to both rear wheels on the vehicle, insert > VAS 6350/7 - Locking Pins  into the wheel-alignment adapter and fit reflectors (at the left and right) on the locking pins. The reflectors must be hanging freely.

3. Align the work surface with the center of the vehicle and adjust the line laser to suit the calibration plate in accordance with the operating instructions for VAS 6350.
4. Clean reversing camera using a soft, clean cloth.
