The rear pneumatic suspension en-
hances driving comfort by maintain-
ing a constant body height whatever
the vehicle load. Operation
- If there is an increase in vehi-
cle load, a sinking of the rear of
the vehicle is detected and the
p n e u m a t i c s p r i n g s i n fl a t e i n o r -
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
s p r i n g s d e fl a t e t o r e t u r n t h e v e -
hicle to its nominal height.
- If the vehicle has been unused for a long period, the pneumatic
s p r i n g s m a y i n fl a t e i f n e c e s s a r y
when you unlock or open a door,
so as to return the vehicle to its
nominal height.
If you do not reactivate the system
manually, the automatic correction
will be activated as soon as the ve-
hicle starts to move. During the cor-
rection, the service warning lamp
lights up and a message on the
screen reminds you not to exceed
10 km/h (6 mph).
The automatic correction does not

functioning, alert messages,

play in the instrument panel .
