What this sheet is for

Keep proof that the cameras and sensors were set up again after every job that moved them. The report reference on each line finds the certificate again when someone asks for it.

Who it is for

Owners and fleet managers of cars and vans with a windscreen camera, radar or parking sensors, and anyone booking one in for a new screen or a repair.

How to use it

Tick the assistance systems fitted, from the handbook or the vehicle's specification.
Copy the windscreen part number or markings, so a replacement can be matched to the original.
Add a line for every windscreen, alignment, suspension, bumper or body repair, and every assistance warning lamp.
Write the calibration type and the report or certificate reference exactly as the garage gives them.
On the drive home, note whether lane keeping, cruise and the warnings behave as they did before, then sign the line off.

What is on the sheet

One page, top to bottom:

Printed under the title: One record per vehicle: the driver assistance systems it has, then every job that disturbed a camera or sensor and the calibration that followed, with the report reference so the paperwork can be found.

The maker decides, the report shows it was done. Whether a job needs a calibration, and whether it is static, dynamic or both, comes from the vehicle maker's repair information, not from this sheet. Ask for the calibration report or certificate every time and keep it with this record.

Write-on lines: Vehicle registration · Make, model and year · VIN · Windscreen part no. or markings · Usual glass or calibration garage · Reports kept at

Questions

Does every windscreen replacement need a calibration?

Not always, and this sheet does not decide it. Whether a job needs one, and what kind, is set by the vehicle maker's repair information for that model and that system. Ask the fitter what the maker requires and keep whatever report they give you.

What is the difference between static and dynamic calibration?

Broadly, a static calibration is done in the workshop with targets set up in front of the vehicle, and a dynamic one is done by driving it while a diagnostic tool watches. Some vehicles need one, some both. Write the type as it appears on the report, not as you remember it.
