 On a flat surface.
 With 50L of fuel in the
tank.
 With new or identically
worn tyres.
 Tyre pressure at 2 bars.

Preliminary checks

Before checking the axle angles, check (and correct if necessary) the following points:
 Tyre symmetry on a given axle:
• Pressure
• Wear
 Hinges:
• Condition of flexible bearings
• Ball joint clearance
• Bearing clearance
 Wheel run-out (max. 0.3mm)
 Body and cup height symmetry

- Distorted wishbone
- Distorted side member or subframe-axle

Camber + pivot correct overall, but:
- Individual faulty camber
- Individual pivot wrong.

- Distorted wishbone
- Distorted side member or subframe-axle

Camber correct, but faulty pivot

- Distorted pivot

Pivot correct, but faulty camber

- Distorted pivot

Faulty variation in wheel alignment

4.2.4 ADJUSTMENT OF GEOMETRY
Body height
1

Body height is adjusted using the nut (1)
mounted on the support strut.
Loosen the locknut (2).
Adjust body height by tightening or
loosening the nut.
Once the required height has been reached,
tighten the locknut.

2

Wheel alignment
1

Adjust the clip by means of the steering
tie-rod (1).
Loosen the locknut (2).
Adjust the alignment by tightening or
loosening the steering tie-rod.
One the required setting achieved,
tighten the locknut to 53Nm.

2

Camber
Adjust the camber by means of the upper
shock absorber mounting (point F).
Loosen the 3 plate bolts (1).
Adjust the camber.
Tighten the 3 bolts to 100Nm.

1

To avoid disconnecting the front left-hand drivetrain, driving with less than 3°
negative camber (more than -3°) on the front left-hand wheel is prohibited.

The alignment and camber of the rear axle are
adjusted by inserting shims (1) between the

Depending on the required effect, the shims
should be positioned according to the thickest
edge.

The correspondence between the shims and their resulting alignment/camber is given

4.4.4 ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM
If the unit undergoes a heavy impact or if the vehicle is involved in an accident.
The unit MUST be sent to the Alpine after-sales service.
Transport precautions
The unit must be held in place by the shaft and engine housing.
Handling the unit using the shaft alone can cause significant damage to the torque
sensor and, consequently, can lead to unit malfunction.
Safety recommendation
The EPS system may generate significant forces and rotation speeds, which may in turn
cause injury. It is therefore important to handle it with caution, in accordance with the
maintenance guidelines (see following paragraph) and to return it to the supplier prior to
re-use if it has been damaged.
Maintenance guidelines
 The condition of all of the EPS mechanical components and electrical
connections should be checked after each race.
 A period of at least 20 seconds should be left between general vehicle
power cut-off and EPS disconnection to allow all internal diagnostic
procedures to complete.
 The unit can reach temperatures of 85°C following repeated operations. It
is therefore necessary to check the unit’s temperature before
disassembling it.
Use
-

Start-up
 Ensure that the EPS is correctly connected to the wiring harness.
 Turn on the vehicle's electrics (button (12) on the control panel; see 1-6
Using the car).
 After a short period of time, the EPS makes a "clicking" noise. This
indicates that the unit is powered up and ready to use.
 Turn the wheel. The EPS should function and the less effort should be
required to turn the wheel.
 For the wheel position sensor to transmit its measurements, it must first
be calibrated. The power steering will function correctly, even if the
sensor has not been calibrated, but angle measurements will not be
available on data acquisition.
 To calibrate the sensor, turn the wheel slowly to the 0° position (this
information is visible from the “Vision” software see 6 Operating
software/Vision). This position is an item of production data and may not
correspond to the vehicle’s wheels being straight. It is for this reason
that, when calibrating the sensor for the first time, the wheel must be
rotated 360°(don’t turn up to the stop!) in each direction. The 0°
position will then correspond to the straight wheels position. The system
will maintain this calibration as long as the vehicle’s electrics are on, but
will require re-calibrating to 0° on each general power cut.

E-36

2010 Release
-

Power off
Before switching off completely, the system switches to “power latch” mode.
During this phase, the system checks the operation of certain components that
cannot be tested during the operating phase.
To ensure that all the tests are performed correctly, power must be
maintained for at least 30 seconds after dashboard shutdown (wait 30 seconds
between turning off the engine: using switch (12) before cutting off the
general power supply with switch (1)).

Fault diagnosis
Symptom 1: When the system is powered up, the effort required to turn the wheel
does not reduce. Furthermore, the system does not “click”.
Solutions:
 Ensure that the ignition switch is in the up position (on).
 Check that the wiring harness is connected to the battery and that the
battery is charged.
 Check all connections between the battery, EPS and ignition switch.
Ensure that there is no power loss and that they are connected to the
correct pins.
 Check that all fuses between the battery and the EPS are in working
order.
If the system is still malfunctioning after these checks, it must be immediately returned
to the Alpine after-sales service.
Symptom 2: When the steering wheel is turned, the power steering stops before
reaching full travel. When the wheel it turned in the opposite direction, however, the
power steering operates correctly to full travel.
Solution: This problem is due to the maximum rotation allowed by the system of
1600°. If the 0° position stored by the system is significantly different from the angle
of the wheels, the angle measured by the EPS may exceed the maximum value in one
direction. To solve this problem, disconnect the intermediate shaft and rotate the
wheel 360° in the direction of correct system operation. This will align the system’s
0° position with that of the wheels.
Symptom 3: When driving the vehicle, the power steering varies randomly, even
though the system is constantly powered up.
Solution: Ensure that all connections between the EPS, the battery and the ignition
switch are shielded and sealed and that there is no corrosion or dirt on them.
If these solutions fail to solve the problem, the system must be immediately returned to
the Alpine after-sales service.

pad run-in protocol:
Clean the brake disc with Emery paper (surface in contact with the pad).
Remove all traces of previous friction.
Create a 45° chamfer on the outer circumference of the pad if the discs
are hollowed.
Perform 3 to 4 medium pressure braking operations (150 to 100kph).
Allow to cool between braking (+/-400 meters).
Perform 1 heavy pressure braking operation (180 to 100kph).
Allow to cool (+/- 800meters).
Repeat the process two or three times.

Under no circumstances during run-in should brake pad temperature exceed 300°C to
400°C.
Brake pad operation at low temperatures may lead to the build-up of friction
material on the disc. This deposit may cause vibrations when braking. Should this
occur, buff the discs to eliminate this phenomenon.

Approved brake fluids

The combination of two incompatible brake fluids in the braking circuit may lead to
significant leakage risks caused mainly by damage to gaskets and cups. To avoid such
risks, only those fluids inspected and approved by our laboratories, and compliant with

4.7.2 NEW WISHBONE MOUNTING
The wishbones can only be purchased with their A and B casings already fitted. You only

 Fit the snap ring 77 11 162 563 in its groove (B casing)
 Heat the casing (oven) et cool the ball joint (freezer)

E ball joint.
 Fit the ball joint using a pressing machine leaning on the external ring of the
ball joint, without glue (If you do not have a press, a vice should be sufficient)

damage the parts because of too important force. Be careful to not deform the inner
shoulder of the B casing.
