📋 Procedure

Calibrating
left overhead view camera
R244
/
right overhead view camera
R245
Left overhead view camera
R244
and
right overhead view camera
R245
are installed in left and right exterior mirror respectively.
The following describes the calibration process for the
left overhead view camera
R244
. The calibration process for the
right overhead view camera
R245
is similar.
Special tools and workshop equipment required
Calibration unit
VAS 6350
Calibration unit for overhead view camera
VAS 6350/6
Vehicle diagnostic tester
Ensure requirements are met
Anchor
.
Set up and align
calibration unit
VAS 6350
with
calibration unit for overhead view camera
VAS 6350/6
Chapter
.
Connect
Vehicle diagnostic tester
.
Setting up calibration unit
Fit
wheel centre mounting
VAS 6350/1
:
Check bolt circle of wheels.
Prepare
wheel centre mountings
VAS 6350/1
as required. Use spacers.
To do so, secure three wheel bolt adapters to
wheel centre mounting
VAS 6350/1
to match the hole circle.
Position paddle on
wheel centre mounting
VAS 6350/1
and secure paddle with clamping bolt.
Fit
wheel centre mounting
VAS 6350/1
onto wheel bolts on front left wheel.
The
wheel centre mounting
VAS 6350/1
is kept in position and secured by the O-rings in the adapters.
Note
When fitting the
wheel centre mounting
VAS 6350/1
onto the wheel, make sure that it is not mounted on any anti-theft wheel bolts that might be installed.
After setting up the
calibration unit
VAS 6350
with
calibration unit for overhead view camera
VAS 6350/6
4
, position it next to the vehicle.
Using clamping bolt, adjust paddle
2
so that it can move freely slightly above calibration field of
calibration unit
VAS 6350
4
.
Fitting
linear laser
VAS 6350/3
:
Use ratchet (3/8-inch) to screw
guide pin
VAS 6350/6-5
2
into rear left wheel as far as stop and fit
mounting for linear laser
VAS 6350/6-6
together with
linear laser
VAS 6350/3
1
.
Slide
mounting for linear laser
VAS 6350/6-6
so that outer edge of
guide pin
VAS 6350/6-5
is flush with outer edge of laser housing
arrow
and pull lever tight.
Alignment of
calibration unit
VAS 6350
with
calibration unit for overhead view camera
VAS 6350/6
:
Switch on
linear laser
VAS 6350/3
3
and adjust laser beam forwards in direction of
wheel centre mounting
VAS 6350/1
2
so that a line appears on calibration field of
calibration unit
VAS 6350
4
.
Align calibration field of
calibration unit
VAS 6350
4
so that outer side of black line along length of calibration field of
calibration unit
VAS 6350
4
is located exactly on laser beam.
Align calibration field of
calibration unit
VAS 6350
4
so that outer side of black line
1
aligns exactly with hanging paddle on
wheel centre mounting
VAS 6350/1
2
.
Move
calibration unit
VAS 6350
with
calibration unit for overhead view camera
VAS 6350/6
to a horizontal position.
To do so, turn plastic feet beneath calibration field of
calibration unit
VAS 6350
to make air bubble in spirit level move exactly to centre of display
arrow
.
WARNING
Make sure no light is reflected on
calibration unit for overhead view camera
VAS 6350/6
.
Reflected light impairs the view of the cameras and therefore it may be impossible to perform calibration.
Measuring dimension
h
:
Measure height of
calibration unit
VAS 6350
2
(dimension
h
) from top surface of calibration field of
calibration unit
VAS 6350
2
(not aluminium frame) to floor. Perform the measurement at the hole provided in the calibration field of the
calibration unit
VAS 6350
2
.
Ensure that
spacing laser
VAS 6350/2
1
is correctly adjusted (position at front edge).
The display will show how the
spacing laser
VAS 6350/2
should be positioned. Press the appropriate key.
Position at front edge
Position at rear edge
Now enter measured distance value
h
and dimension in millimetres in
Vehicle diagnostic tester
.
Performing calibration
Vehicle diagnostic tester
is connected.
Select
Diagnosis
mode and start diagnosis.
Select
Test plan
tab.
Select
Own test
then the following options one after the other:
Body
Electrical system
01 - Self-diagnosis compatible systems
6C - Control unit for overhead view camera | J928
6C - Control unit for overhead view camera, functions
6C - Calibration (Rep. gr. 91)
Further instructions are given by
Vehicle diagnostic tester
during calibration procedure.
WARNING
Make sure no light is reflected on
calibration unit for overhead view camera
VAS 6350/6
.
Reflected light impairs the view of the cameras and therefore it may be impossible to perform calibration.

Who makes these pages, and how

TorqFix was built by a mechanic — after a 2,700 km drive with five roadside repairs that no diagnostic tool could explain.

The figures on this page come from manufacturer workshop documentation and are shown as they are. The page is assembled automatically from that data — it is not written by an AI. The AI works in the chat, where it answers for your specific car. It writes nothing here.

Variants of the same model differ. Cross-check torque against the factory manual for your engine before final tightening.
