Make sure that no persons are staying underneath the vehicle or be-
tween the wheels when the vehicle is lowered.
Do not overload the vehicle (do not exceed the axle load nor the permis-
sible gross weight).
Make sure that it is possible to lower the vehicle can be freely even after
a longer stationary period.
Before setting of, check the system pressure at the pressure gauge. The
system pressure shall be within a range from 1 to 6 bar. If required, in-
crease the pressure or decrease the pressure.
When using snow chains: make sure that there is sufficient free space
for the snow chains.
In addition to the standard equipment of the vehicle with steel springs, two

Press On/Off button (Fig. 14,1) on the electrical control unit. Fill the sys-
tem with an external compressor through a valve (on the left side of the
left-hand vehicle seat console).
Release the pressure. In order to do this, press the bleeding pin
(Fig. 14,2) on the electrical control unit.
Distribute the load evenly on the bellows because otherwise tensions
may occur on the body. Tensions may hinder opening and closing the
doors and flaps.
