The quick test mode allows you to execute a complete vehicle test without entering vehicle

On the Start screen select 1 - 8 on the remote control/keyboard to start the quick test mode
and select one of the following vehicle types:
KEY CLASS 2X2 OR
4X4 (SELECTABLE)
SERVICE BRAKE
TYPE
PARKING BRAKE ON REAR

5 5L 2x2 Dual line Rear
6 5L 2x2 Dual line Front
7 7 2x2 Dual line Rear
8 7 2x2 Dual line Front
Depends on the configuration of the test lane. When configured as a class 4 brake tester,
KEYS 5 until 8 are disabled.
For combinations not listed under these short keys, go to the customer/vehicle screen and
select the correct vehicle. See “Manual test mode Class M1, 4, 5L, 7” on page 31.
Limits are linked to vehicle types 1 to 8 and will be used to judge PASS or FAIL at the end of
the test.
