In the next step, start steering to the right end stop after pressing “OK”.

Please steer several times out from the centre position of the steering wheel to the right end stop.

Bring the steering wheel back to the centre position(wheels straight) and release.
Then there are checks to establish whether the motor position angle of the active steering was successfully calibrated.
Press “OK”.
