PNEUMATIC SUSPENSION
Operation
-
If there is an increase in vehicle
load, a sinking of the rear of
the vehicle is detected and the
pneumatic springs inflate in or-
der to compensate for the extra
weight.
-
-
If there is a decrease in load, a
rising of the rear of the vehicle is
detected and so the pneumatic
springs deflate to return the ve-
hicle to its nominal height.
If the vehicle has been unused
for a long period, the pneumatic
springs may inflate if necessary
when you unlock or open a door,
so as to return the vehicle to its
nominal height.
You must deactivate the system in
the following circumstances:
-
-
-
when working under the vehicle,
when changing a wheel,
when transporting the vehicle on
a lorry or ferry.

If you do not reactivate the system
manually, automatic height correc-
tion will be activated as soon as the
vehicle starts to move. During height
correction, the service warning lamp
comes on and a message on the
screen reminds you not to exceed 6

hances driving comfort by maintain-
ing a constant body height whatever
the vehicle load.

rection:
) press button B again for approxi-
mately two seconds,
) release the button when you hear
a beep. Activation is confirmed
by the extinction of the indicator
lamp in button B.

ciation with the service warning
lamp, will appear in the instru-
