  • Page 4: Warnings

    OPERATING ADVICE: WARNING The 4-wheel system designed and manufactured by Automobiles DANGEL gives you additional traction, however without giving you the capability to clear excessive obstacles. Therefore, its enhanced traction renders it suitable for all-road operation but not all-terrain. Non compliance with the recommendations given in this manual may damage your vehicle and render the guarantee null and void.
  • Page 5  Driving on all-roads? The all-road performance of this vehicle category (gross vehicle weight “G.V.W” of up to 2.2 tons) is influenced by:  The transported weight, its distribution stowage.  The available traction.  The type of ground.  Wear and type of tyres. When driving on unpaved roads or when traction becomes precarious: ...
  • Page 6  Vehicle equipped with stop and start? In order not to disturb the user when driving offroad at low speed, we advise to neutralize the Stop & Start system as written in the instructions manual for original manufacturer.  Climbing up a slope? On a slope: ...
  • Page 7  Safety !  Wheels antiblocking system (ABS).  Your vehicle is fitted with an ABS system which electronic control is specific to your vehicle. The purpose of this incomparable safety feature is to prevent the wheels from locking on low traction surfaces and to maintain control of the vehicle's trajectory especially in case of emergency braking.
  • Page 8 Note : when wheels get changed (tyres and rims), please take care that they are homologated for your vehicle. When the ABS is running it can show through light vibrations on the brake pedal.  The emergency brake assist (AFU). ...
  • Page 9: Weights And Payloads

    Weights and payloads For more information, refer to your registration certificate. WARNING The payload values take into account the weight of the DANGEL equipment (approx. 90 Kg depending on the version).

  • Page 14: Operating Principle

    The system uses two running positions: a 2WD (eco) position where traction comes from the two front wheels only (green lights on). a 4WD (auto) position for optimum traction from all four wheels depending on the road surface (green + yellow lights on). Note: Since the jaw clutching system is mechanical, the light display does not necessarily represent the mechanical position of the jaw clutch (see...
  • Page 15 Operating principle of 4WD (auto) Front Rear COUPLER Axle Axle NORMAL RUNNING Front Rear COUPLER Axle Axle LOSS OF FRONT AXLE GRIP Automobiles DANGEL's 4-wheel drive system operates based on automatic and optimal distribution of the engine torque. The coupler is the heart of the system. Depending on the traction of the front wheels, the coupler automatically distributes the engine torque to the rear wheels which provides additional traction to the vehicle.

  • Page 17 In free position, the rear DANGEL axle distributes the torque between the right wheel and the left wheel. Moreover the differential enables the rear right wheel and the rear left wheel to turn at different speeds. In curves this ensures safe road handling, and preserves the drivetrain and the tyres.
  • Page 18 NOTE: For your safety and to ensure that your vehicle gives you lasting service, do not over use its crossing capabilities, it is not an off road vehicle.  How to lock the rear differential When stopped or at slow speed, turn the nob 1/4 turn clock-wise to lock the rear differential.
  • Page 19  Sound and light signals Under normal operation: The orange indicator stays lit continuously to confirm the locking. A buzzer is heard when the differential is actually locked (slow intermittent sound signal). In transition mode: (locking asked but not mechanically engaged). - The orange indicator blinks and the sound signal is intermittent and rapid.
