WARNING Risk of accident because
vehicle level is too high
If you drive at a higher vehicle level, the driv
ing characteristics may be impaired due to
the higher vehicle center of gravity.
The vehicle can drift outwards, for example,
when steering or cornering.
#
Always choose a vehicle level which is
suited to the driving style and the road
surface conditions.
&
WARNING Risk of entrapment from vehi
cle lowering
When lowering the vehicle, people could
become trapped if their limbs are between
the vehicle body and the tires or underneath
the vehicle.
#
Make sure no one is underneath the
vehicle or in the immediate vicinity of
the wheel arches when you lower the
vehicle.
&
WARNING Risk of entrapment from vehi
cle lowering
Vehicles with AIRMATIC or level control:
When you unload luggage or leave the vehi
cle, the vehicle first rises slightly and then
returns to the set level shortly afterwards.
You or anyone else in the vicinity of the
wheel arches or the underbody could thus
become trapped.
The vehicle can also be lowered after being
locked.
