The
AIRMATIC COMFORT message appears
in the multi-function display. Active Body Control (ABC)
Vehicle level Your vehicle automatically adjusts its ride
height to reduce petrol consumption and
improve driving safety.
Depending on the vehicle height that has
been set, the vehicle automatically adjusts its
height dependent on the current speed. The
vehicle is lowered by up to 10 mm as the
speed increases. As the speed is reduced, the
vehicle is raised up to the set vehicle height. G
Risk of injury
The vehicle is lowered when the engine is
switched off. Therefore, make sure that
nobody is in the vicinity of the wheel housing
or under the vehicle when you switch off the
engine. Otherwise, limbs could become trap-
ped.
! The vehicle is lowered by about 5 mm
when the engine is switched off. When
parking, make sure that you stop your vehi-
cle so that it does not make contact with
the kerb as it is lowered. Otherwise, the
vehicle could be damaged.
Setting the vehicle level manually
Select the "Normal" setting for normal road
surfaces and "Raised" for driving with snow
chains or on particularly poor road surfaces. G
Risk of injury
Make sure that nobody is in the vicinity of the
wheel housing or under the vehicle while low-
ering the vehicle when it is stationary. Other-
wise, limbs could become trapped. X

trolled at each wheel individually.
