! If ENR is malfunctioning or making readjust-
ments while the vehicle is moving, the vehicle
level may be lowered. In this case, pay atten-
tion to the road conditions and make sure
there is sufficient ground clearance. Drive on
carefully. The chassis could otherwise be
damaged.
If the ¬ indicator lamp lights up in the instru-
ment cluster while you are driving (
ENR not activated
or the
sage appears in the display, ENR is malfunction-
ing.
The vehicle level is too low or too high if while
driving:
the ¬ indicator lamp in the instrument clus-
ter flashes rapidly.
ENR Warning! Vehicle height
the
sage appears in the display.
The vehicle driving and steering characteristics
are changed noticeably. ENR adjusts the vehicle
level to the normal level as soon as possible.
Continue to drive on carefully until the ¬
indicator lamp goes out or the display message
disappears. Only then is the vehicle at normal
level.
The level of the vehicle depends on vehicle load
and the load distribution. On vehicles with an
air-sprung rear axle, ENR compensates the level
between front and rear axle automatically. The
vehicle level is always maintained at the normal
level, regardless of vehicle load. Driving dynam-
ics remain unaffected.
Automatic mode can be deactivated when the
vehicle is stationary and the vehicle level can be
raised or lowered manually, e.g. for loading/
unloading. When working on the vehicle or
changing a wheel, you can deactivate ENR.
If you drive at speeds of 10 km/h or more, auto-
matic mode and ENR are reactivated automati-
cally.
If the ENR compressor threatens to overheat,
e.g. due to rapid repeated raising or lowering
within a short period, ENR is automatically deac-
tivated (play protection). You can raise or lower
the vehicle again after approximately 1 minute.
