Function levelling
: self-level the vehicle.
The self-levelling feature is designed to level the vehicle on uneven surface into a pre-
calibrated position. Main intent is to make in-car or roof top tent sleeping more
comfortable.
XLifter is capable to level maximum tilt of approximately
4.5° in longitudinal (pitch) or
traverse (roll) direction. Or in any direction, provided that sum of inclines does not
exceed 4.5°.
These limits are given by the scope of wheel articulations. Levelling function
should be activated only in standard “Original” vehicle height to maximize available wheel
articulation.
Activating the Levelling function:
1.
Press
to access the main menu.
2.
Select “
Levelling
” and confirm with the
button.
●
The actual pitch and roll values are displayed. The longer mark
on the left is pitch and shorter on the right is vehicle roll.
●
You may press the
button to switch to more detailed screen
with shock absorbers info. The wheels target height indicators
show target wheel positions required to fully level the vehicle.
You’ll switch back to base levelling screen by pressing the
button. Screen switching can be repeated any time.
●
If the roll or pitch (or both) angles are outside the range that can be levelled, the
corresponding mark starts to blink and “!” is shown next to measured angle value.
The detailed screen also indicates those wheels whose articulation is no longer
sufficient.
3.
Press
to START LEVELLING.
4.
Press
to confirm levelling start.
●
You can’t return to previous menu from this point. The vehicle
was instructed to set “unbalanced” wheel heights and is
unsuitable for driving. To cancel the levelling (at any phase) and
return the vehicle to normal state, exit the levelling function.
●
The levelling progress and actual pitch/roll values are displayed.
The pitch/roll marks act as the progress bars. You may use
buttons to switch to/from mode detailed screen anytime during
levelling.
●
If neither pitch nor roll precision of 0.5˚ is not reached at the end
of levelling cycle, one more fine-tuning levelling cycle is started
automatically (FINE TUNING).
5.
If you are not satisfied with levelling results at the end of levelling process, select OK by
pressing
, choose the “
Finetune levelling
“ and press
. The XLifter will re-launch the
fine-tuning cycle from current vehicle position.
When the levelling process is finished, display shows “
Car is levelled
”
message and actual pitch/roll values. This is when you turn the engine
off, the car is levelled for sleeping.
When ignition is subsequently turned on and vehicle is levelled, the
XLifter shows the “Car is levelled” screen to indicate, that levelling function is still active.
