Software update - Front and rear door control modules
•

The closed-circuit voltage of the vehicle must be at least 12.5 V during the update. Connect a suitable battery charger
to the vehicle. For further information refer to the Repair manual

•

During the update switch off all unnecessary consumers (ventilation, seat heater, interior illumination etc) ensure the
main light switch is set to ‘off’ and leave the driver’s door open

•

Because of the highest transmission stability you MUST use the diagnosis interface VAS 6154 (WiFi diagnostic tool)
ONLY in USB operation or the cable-connected VAS 5055 for the reprogramming (updating) of control modules. If these
units are not available, the diagnosis interface VAS 5054 (A) can also be used in USB mode

•

Do Not under any circumstances use a Bluetooth connection to conduct the reprogramming (updating) of any control
modules
