Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a device (1) for adjusting the gap dimensions and/or an offset between a movable hood (2) of a motor vehicle and the remaining body (3) of said motor vehicle. The hood (2) is first fitted and retained in a roughly adjusted assembly position so as to be as flush as possible with the body (3), whereupon the hood (2) is finely adjusted such that predefined values are matched as closely as possible for the gap dimensions and/or the offset. In order to be able to adjust the gap dimensions and/or the offset as simply, quickly and flexibly as possible in a contactless manner, actual values (21 ist) for the gap dimensions and/or the offset between the hood (2) and the remaining body (3) are optically detected for the fine adjustment. Triggering signals (24) for at least one actuating member (12) are determined in accordance with the detected actual values (21 ist) and predefined set point values (21-soll) for the gap dimensions and/or the offset.
