OPERATING ADVICE:
WARNING
The 4-wheel system designed and manufactured by Automobiles DANGEL gives
you additional traction, however without giving you the capability to clear excessive
obstacles.
Therefore, its enhanced traction renders it suitable for
all-road
operation but
not
all-terrain.
Non compliance with the recommendations given in this manual may
damage your vehicle and render the guarantee null and void.
Vehicle's tool set:
In addition to the tool kit, the vehicle has a torx key above
the front left light in the engine compartment, to dismount
the group of solenoid valves in order to access the fuse
box engine. It includes a 75 mm block of wood to be
placed under the jack. In passenger cars, this wedge is
placed in the floor cases at the foot of rear passengers.
DRIVING
How to operate the 4-wheel mode?
Your vehicle is fitted with an automatic hydraulic coupler. Its job is to transfer a part
of engine torque to the rear axle in case of loss of front axle traction. This transfer is
fully automatic
and does not require
you to take any action.
Note:
During tight parking manoeuvres (in 1st gear and reverse) near steering locks,
the 4-wheel drive system slightly brakes the vehicle. This
phenomenon is
completely normal
and results from the different rotation speeds between the front
and rear axles.
Your vehicle is fitted with:
An automatic hydraulic coupler:
The visco-coupler.
As an option, a lockable rear axle.
As an option, an ultra-low forward gear.
