drive off quickly.
The drive-off assistant holds the vehicle
for approx. 2 seconds after releasing the
Chassis and suspension tuning

After releasing the brake pedal, immediately
start quickly, otherwise the drive-off assistant
no longer holds the vehicle after approx.
2 seconds and it begins to roll back.<
You can choose between two types of chassis
and suspension tuning.

The sporty basic setting offers increased
driving agility.
Self-leveling suspension*
Selecting chassis and suspension
tuning
The concept
The self-leveling suspension on the rear axle
assures a continuous ground clearance.
To do so, the height of the vehicle is measured
by sensors at both rear wheels.
If the actual height deviates from the defined
height, e.g. due to loading of the vehicle, then
this difference is compensated for very quickly.
In addition, spring motions resulting from cor-
nering or irregularities in the road surface are
reduced to a minimum.
Press the button.
The system functions automatically.
The system switches between the two chassis
and suspension tuning settings.
Malfunctions
>
Sport:
The LED in the button lights up and SPORT
is displayed in the instrument panel.
Malfunctions are displayed via Check Control,
refer to page 82.
>
Normal:
The LED in the button goes out.
FTM Flat Tire Monitor*
The selection of the chassis and suspension
tuning setting is stored for the remote control
currently in use.
The concept
The system does not measure the actual infla-
tion pressure in the tires.
The system detects a pressure loss in a tire by
comparing the rotational speeds of the individ-
ual wheels while moving.
Drive-off assistant
The drive-off assistant enables you to start off
conveniently on slopes. The parking brake is
not required for this purpose.
In the event of a pressure loss, the diameter and
therefore the rotational speed of the corre-
sponding wheel change. This is detected and
reported as a flat tire.
