1. Stowed position
2. Deployed position
Airbrake - AERO button OFF
The Airbrake remains stowed at speeds
below 93 mph (150 km/h).
At speeds above 93 mph (150 km/h) the
Airbrake deploys, moving dynamically
dependent on the vehicle's requirements.
This enhances vehicle's high speed stability
with increased aerodynamic drag. The
Airbrake may actively deploy at speeds
below 93 mph (150 km/h) during sudden
braking or when high vertical or longitudinal
G forces are measured.
Airbrake - AERO button ON
The Airbrake is deployed and moves
dynamically, dependent on the vehicle's
requirements. This enhances vehicle
stability with increased aerodynamic drag.
The Airbrake will raise at any vehicle speed.
1. Press the ACTIVE button to switch on
the Active Dynamics Panel.
2. Press the AERO button and the
Airbrake deploys.
NOTE: The Airbrake may automatically
lower to reduce aerodynamic drag in
favour of straight line speed if the
vehicle is travelling in a straight line at
full throttle.
Lowering the Airbrake - vehicle moving
If the car is travelling at speeds above 9 mph
(15 km/h), press the
AERO button, and the
Airbrake will lower fully.
WARNING: Before lowering the
Airbrake, check for any objects
which may obstruct movement, e.g.
