Calibration Requirements

• The camera lens must be clean. Cleaning
• Check the camera images on the Front Information Display Control Head -J685-. Replace the camera if the images are unclear because the camera has been damaged. Check the mount for the camera if the image is low.
• Make sure both exterior rearview mirrors are folded out.
• The vehicle must be standing on a firm and level surface.
• There must be enough clearance around the vehicle (at least 2 meters).
• The parking brake must be set.
• The steering wheel must be in the 0 position and the wheels must be straight.
• If the vehicle has an air suspension, turn on "Auto" and drive the vehicle at "standard vehicle height" onto Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
• All doors and the rear lid must be closed.
• No one should be in the vehicle.
• The vehicle must not be loaded (curb weight).
• Connect the battery charger.
• Ignition switched on.
• The system is active and is displayed on the Front Information Display Control Head -J685-.
• Do not move the vehicle during the calibration process.

Calibrate the cameras in the following sequence:

• Front Peripheral Camera -R243-
• Rear Peripheral Camera -R246-
• Left Peripheral Camera -R244-
• Right Peripheral Camera -R245-

Special tools and workshop equipment required 

• Calibration ToolVAS6350
• Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6
• Vehicle Diagnostic Tester

The Calibration ToolVAS6350 consists of the following parts:

• Calibration field
• Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1
• Calibration Tool - Spacing LaserVAS6350/2
• Linear LaserVAS6350/3A

The Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 is comprise of the following components:

• Mounting Post with Left PlateVAS6350/6-1
• Mounting Post with Right PlateVAS6350/6-2
• Left Post MountVAS6350/6-3
• Right Post MountVAS6350/6-4
• Guide PinVAS6350/6-5
• Line Scan Laser MountVAS6350/6-6

Overview Calibration ToolVAS6350 with Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6

The Mounting Post with Left PlateVAS6350/6-1 and Mounting Post with Right PlateVAS6350/6-2 must be vertical.

-- Move the calibration field on the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 into a horizontal position.

-- To do this, twist plastic feet under the calibration field of the Calibration ToolVAS6350 so that air bubble in level is located exactly in the center of the indicator -arrow-

-- Set the Mounting Post with Left PlateVAS6350/6-1 -1- and the Mounting Post with Right PlateVAS6350/6-2 -2- on both sides to the dimension -B- 77.5 of the scale on the Calibration DeviceVAS6350.

-- Adjust the height of the Mounting Post with Left PlateVAS6350/6-1 -1- and Mounting Post with Right PlateVAS6350/6-2 -2- so that dimension -A- is 150 mm (5.9 in) between the lower edge of the black measuring field (not of the aluminum frame!) and the surface of the Calibration DeviceVAS6350 calibration field.

The corners on the outside of the Calibration ToolVAS6350 calibration field must always be flush with the outer edge of the black line on the measuring field when performing distance measuring.
