STEERING

21

adjust the tie rod lengths by reducing one and

increasing the other so that in the SAP

(Straight Ahead Parked) condition the toe is

correct and yet steering wheel is centered.

NOTE:

If toe is excessively out of limit, first adjust

toe, then the camber and then adjust toe

again.

Not following the sequence i.e. first camber

and then toe out will lead to incorrect wheel

alignment even though individual adjustments

are done correctly.

After setting / adjusting steering geometry (i.e.

Toe), connect the diagnostic tool and follow

the instruction for ECU learning. This is

applicable for all variants fitted with EPAS.

Note:

It is recommended to set toe & camber

values at mid of the specification range.

It is recommended to have minimum

difference between LH & RH set camber

values. The difference between LH & RH

set values should be within 20’ maximum.

While removal & re-fitment of steering rack and

pinion assembly or replacing the tie rods on the

vehicle, the above procedure should be followed

before going in for the actual wheel alignment.
