Impossible if speed > 10 km/h (6 mph).
Intermediate position:
Impossible if speed > 40 km/h (24 mph).
Normal road position: Always permitted.
Minimum height:
Impossible if speed > 10 km/h (6 mph).Note: If the speed authorised for a particular position is exceeded, the vehicle reverts automatically to the normal road position.
Signalling of a requested position not authorised
