Mercedes-Benz GLC : AIR BODY CONTROL / Setting the vehicle level
WARNING Risk of accident because
vehicle level is too high
Driving characteristics may be impaired.
The vehicle can drift outwards, for example,
when steering or cornering.
Choose a vehicle level
which is suited
to the driving style and the road surface
conditions.
WARNING Risk of entrapment from vehicle
lowering
When lowering the vehicle, people could
become trapped if their limbs are between
the vehicle body and the tires or underneath
the vehicle.
Make sure no one is
underneath the
vehicle or in the immediate vicinity of
the wheel arches when the vehicle is
being lowered.
WARNING Risk of becoming trapped
due to the vehicle lowering
Vehicles with AIR BODY CONTROL or
level control system: when you unload luggage
or leave the vehicle, the vehicle first
rises slightly and then returns to the set level
shortly afterwards.
You or anyone else in the vicinity of the
wheel arches or the underbody could thus
become trapped.
The vehicle can also be lowered after being
locked.
When leaving the vehicle,
make sure
that nobody is in the vicinity of the
wheel arches or the underbody.
NOTE Damage due to vehicle lowering
Parts of the body could be damaged when
the vehicle is lowered.
Make sure that there are
no obstacles
such as curbs underneath or in the
immediate vicinity of the body when the
vehicle is being lowered.
