The Vehicle Specifi cations page allows analysing the manufacturer's specifi cations to decide which opera-
tions are to be performed.
In most cases the manufacturer specifi es the minimum, standard and maximum values for the main angles:
toe-in, camber and caster.
Nevertheless, in some cases the manufacturer might:
Require to position loads in the vehicle or fi ll the tank before making the measurement and adjustment •
Specify angles normally ignored: SAI, TOOT or maximum steerings •
Specify the maximum values for the difference between the right and left wheel camber or caster •
(car only) Prescribe a special adjustment method, as the 'Toe-in curve' •
Give different specifi cations based on the measurements of the ride height or the inclinations of parts of •
the suspension.
Check some vehicle measurements (e.g. ride height or component tightening torque) or apply special
•
tools (e.g. toe-in bar) before making the measurement and adjustment
On the Vehicle Specifi cations page you can see which of these things are required and decide whether or
not to perform these operations.
You can also set the rim diameter in order to correctly display the toe-in in millimetres or inches and custo-
mise the vehicle specifi cations.

adjustable any way.
If the camera icon appears during adjustment you can view the adjustment help images. 7.
If you do not set the correct rim diameter when the toe-in is displayed in millimetres
or inches, the measurement may differ from what is obtained when measuring the
toe-in with a rule. Nevertheless, the rim diameter does not need to be set correctly in
order to correctly adjust the vehicle; it is suffi cient to position the indicator in the green
zone during adjustment.
