The "Raised level" setting is cancelled at
vehicle speeds above 120 km/h or if the
speed has been between 80 km/h and
120 km/h for more than approximately
5 minutes. If you do not drive within this
speed range, the raised level remains
stored, even when the key is removed from
the ignition lock.
Comfort or sports tuning
AIRMATIC DC (dual control) comprises two
components: the Adaptive Damping System
(ADS) and spring stiffness adjustment.
ADS automatically regulates the suspension
as appropriate to particular driving condi-
tions. Parallel to this, the spring stiffness
switches between "comfort" and "sports" lev-
els.
The damping/spring stiffness settings are
dependent on:
R
your driving style
R
the road surface conditions
R
your individual selection
Your selection remains stored even if you
remove the key from the ignition lock.
