In the "Main" and "Narrow" camera views, determine if the top edge of the tape is between the positive 1 and negative 3 green degree lines.

1	Positive 1 green degree line
2	Tape
3	Negative 3 green degree line

If the top edge of the tape is not between the green degree lines, retrofit a triple camera rear view mirror mount plate with integrated pitch adjustment, see TRIPLE CAMERA PITCH ADJUSTMENT - FORWARD FACING - 2ND GENERATION AUTOPILOT (RETROFIT) .
If the top edge of the tape is between the green degree lines, continue to the next step.

Inform the customer that manual driving is now required to allow the camera to self-calibrate.
NOTE: Self-calibration can take up to 100 miles (160 km) of manual driving, depending upon the road type and condition. Until self-calibration is complete, the message "Autopilot Features Currently Unavailable: Manual Driving Required While Camera Is Calibrating" is displayed if an attempt is made to engage an Autopilot feature.
