Rearview Camera -R189-, Calibrating

- Establish the requirements.

- Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.

Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings -VAS6350/1- installing:

- Check the dimension of the holes.

- Equip the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings -VAS6350/1- appropriately. Use spacer pieces.

- To do so, secure three wheel bolt adapters in the hole circle to each Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings -VAS6350/1-.

- Place the paddle on both Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings -VAS6350/1- and secure them using a clamping screw.

- Place the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings -VAS6350/1- onto the wheel bolts on the rear wheels.

The Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings -VAS6350/1- are positioned by the "O-rings" in the adapters and secured.

  Note

Attach the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings -VAS6350/1- onto the wheels so that any installed "anti-theft" wheel mounting bolts are not connected to the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings -VAS6350/1-.

- Adjust the paddles with aid of lock bolts so that they move freely just above the floor. Check the paddles for ease of movement.

- Install and align the Calibration Unit -VAS6350A-. Refer to → Chapter "Calibration Unit -VAS6350A-, Installing and Aligning".

Distance measurement:

- Switch on the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser -VAS6350/2-.

1 - Attach with front edge

2 - Attach with rear edge

Audi Q3. A91-12100

- Hold the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser -VAS6350/2--2- flush in the bracket on one side of the calibration board (attach with rear edge). The Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser -VAS6350/2--2- must sit securely on the bracket.

- Press the measuring button briefly.

The laser switches on.

- Make sure that laser beam from Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser -VAS6350/2--2- hits lower, enlarged part of paddle -1-.

Audi Q3. N94-10684

If this is not the case, the paddles must be corrected accordingly via clamping screws on the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings -VAS6350/1-.

- Then press the measurement button for the distance measurement briefly.

- Write down the value.

- Repeat this measurement on the other side of the Calibration Tool -VAS6350- in the same way for the rear wheel.

The distance value must be the same on both sides.

If values are not identical:

- Align the Calibration Unit -VAS6350A- long enough so that both sides are identical.

Pay attention when aligning the Calibration Tool -VAS6350-, that the Calibration Tool - Linear Laser -VAS6350/3- from the Calibration Tool -VAS6350- strikes the center of the Audi rings and the indicator of the level remains centered. Adjust if necessary.

Measurement -dimension H-:

- Measure the height of the Calibration Tool -VAS6350-, -dimension H- (top edge platform - floor).

Make sure the Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser -VAS6350/2- is adjusted correctly (attach with front edge).
