Abstract
A calibration of a system which operates in dependence on a sensor in a motor vehicle includes testing, with the use of sensors available in a motor vehicle or with the use of data representative of selected conditions or processes or signals of control devices available in the motor vehicle, whether it can be ascertained that nobody is located in a motor vehicle which can influence variables to be determined by a sensor of a system to be calibrated, and performing the calibration when the testing confirms that it can be ascertained that nobody is located in the motor vehicle which can influence variables to be detected by the sensor of the system to be calibrated.

A method of calibration of a controlling system of a motor vehicle which operates in dependence on a sensor in the motor vehicle, comprising the steps of first testing whether anybody is located in a motor vehicle which influences variables to be determined by a sensor of a system to be calibrated, whereby the testing is performed using sensors available in the motor vehicle or by using data representative of selected conditions or processes or signals of control devices available in the motor vehicle;
- and performing the calibration when the testing confirms that nobody is located in the motor vehicle which influences variables to be detected by the sensors of the system to be calibrated.
A method of calibration of a controlling system of a motor vehicle which operates in dependence on a sensor in the motor vehicle, comprising the steps of first testing whether anybody is endangered or distorted by a change of values to be detected by a sensor of the system to be calibrated for calibration purposes, wherein the step of testing is performed using sensors available in the motor vehicle or by using data representative of selected conditions or processes or signals of control devices available in the motor vehicle;
- and performing the calibration when the testing confirms that nobody is endangered or influenced by changes performed for calibration purposes in variables to be detected by the sensor for said calibration purposes.
