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.
