Before using the hydraulic steady legs, secure the vehicle to prevent un-
wanted movements.
When the ground is soft, place a pad or block under the supports in or-
der to prevent the vehicle from sinking into the ground.
If one of the steady legs is not on the ground following automatic align-
ment, the vehicle can rock if persons are inside, despite it being correctly
aligned. If this happens, retract the relevant pair of steady legs and then
extend them again.
Do not move inside the vehicle during automatic alignment.
The engine can be started with the steady legs extended. However, it is
not possible to drive away. The steady legs retract automatically after
the engine is started. An audible signal sounds when the steady legs are
completely retracted.
The hydraulic steady legs system has two operating modes:
Manual mode
Automatic mode (always activated after switching on)
In Automatic mode, the vehicle is automatically aligned horizontally both
lengthways and crossways.
Both modes are controlled via the control unit.

Fig. 45 Control unit (hydraulic steady
legs)
If the vehicle's tilt is too great, the corresponding red "Inclination" LED
flashes (Fig. 45,2). Select a suitable location, or operate the steady legs
manually at your own risk.
If when being extended a steady leg reaches its maximum length due to a
depression in the ground, the "Manual mode" (Fig. 45,1) and "Automatic
mode" LEDs flash (Fig. 45,9) three times. If this happens, retract the steady
legs, place suitable supports under the affected steady leg and repeat the
procedure.
Press the "On/Off/Mode" (Fig. 45,6) button for longer than 1 second. Af-
ter switching on, a signal tone sounds and the "Automatic mode" LED
(Fig. 45,9) lights up.
If it is not used, the steady legs system deactivates itself automatically after
30 minutes.
