WARNING
Observe the legal requirements on permissible vehicle heights for the country in which you are driving.
Raise or lower the chassis frame to pick up or set down demountable bodies or semitrailers.
If you wish to continue the journey after the chassis height has been modified, raise or lower the chassis to the driving level.
If the indicator lamp in the instrument cluster lights up, the chassis is not at driving

Buttons and
can each be used to store a chassis frame height.
Store a constant chassis frame height for loading and unloading the vehicle.
When the chassis is at driving level, the axle load measuring system determines the axle load from the pressure in the air spring bellows.
The axle load measuring device is not calibrated nor is it a system capable of calibration. The measured data only provides an approximate guide which is not suitable for official use.
In order to avoid inaccuracies when measuring, make sure that the vehicle is uniformly laden.
If you call up the axle load indicator and the chassis is set to driving level, the
indicator lamp flashes. The display shows
Axle load display: not possible and Set vehicle level.
