  3. Stop the car and make sure that the front wheels and the steering wheel are aligned.

  4. Choose the function: "Adaptation of steering angle sensor".

  5. The function starts and the text: ”Adaption correct” confirms that the adaptation has been done.

  6. Drive a short distance straight ahead , with a little movement of the steering wheel (about 30°) to the left and to the right to initiate the steering angle sensor automatically.

  7. Check that no fault codes are stored in the ABS system.

  8. Exit the function.
