Selecting chassis and suspension 
tuning
Press the button. 
The system switches between the two chassis 
and suspension tuning settings.
>
Sport:
The LED in the button lights up and SPORT 
is displayed in the instrument panel.
>
Normal:
The LED in the button goes out.
The selection of the chassis and suspension 
tuning setting is stored for the remote control 
currently in use.
Starting assistant
The starting assistant enables you to start off 
conveniently on slopes. The parking brake is 
not required for this purpose.
1.
Hold the vehicle with the footbrake.
2.
Release the footbrake and immediately 
drive off quickly.
The starting assistant holds the vehicle 
for approx. 2 seconds after releasing the 
footbrake. Depending on the load, the vehicle 
may also roll back slightly during this time. 
After releasing the footbrake, immediately start 
quickly, otherwise the starting assistant no 
longer holds the vehicle after approx. 2 seconds 
and it begins to roll back.

Self-leveling suspension*
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.
The system functions automatically.
Malfunctions
Malfunctions are displayed via Check Control,

FTM Flat Tire Monitor*
The concept
The Flat Tire Monitor detects a pressure loss in 
one tire by comparing the speeds of the individ-
ual wheels during driving.
In the event of a pressure loss, there is a change 
in the rolling circumference and therefore the 
rotation speed of the corresponding wheel. The 
system detects this change and reports it as a 
flat tire.
Function requirements
In order to assure the reliable reporting of a flat 
tire, the system must be initialized for the cor-
rect tire inflation pressure.
The initialization must be repeated after 
each time the tire inflation pressure is cor-
rected and after every tire or wheel change.
<
System limits
The Flat Tire Monitor cannot indicate 
sudden severe tire damage caused by 
outside factors and does not detect a natural, 
even pressure drop in all four tires.
