Air suspension function

• Vehicle level adjustment

The level adjustment enables both manual and speed-sensitive a~_t~rr:'atLc raising and lowering of the vehicle level.

• Vehicle level control

The vehicle level at the front and rear axle are controlled corresponding to the respective driving and load condition and keeps it g9J1SJ~nt._

• Adaptive damping

Adaptive damping system adapts the damping forces to the road surface quality (vertical acceleration sensor) and driving style (horizontal acceleration calculated from vehicle speed and steering angle) .

2

advantages

• Greater driving safety and comfort:

-adapting the damping to road surface quality and driving style

-lower center of gravity -lower air resistance and therefore lower fuel consumption

-less lift at the front axle

3

advantages

• Individual adaptation: -increase in vehicle level for rough road or garage entrances

-provision for setting 2 damping characteristics for comfortable or sporty driving style

4

advantages

• Driving information: -display of increased vehicle level stage and sporty damping stage via function lamp

-warning of vehicle level being too low by the multifunction display

Active body control system

• The ABC system is a full suspension system. The system is capable of applying active forces to each wheel with the aid of four hydraulic suspension struts.

• The active ABC suspension is different from other systems in that it uses dynamically-adjustable hydraulic cylinders at the wheels and does not use stabilizer as used in conventional suspensions.

22

Advantages of ABC

• As a result of the active body damping, it is possible to use very soft, passive shock absorbers which improve vibration and tire comfort considerably.

• Although without stabilizer bars, the ABC system compensates the typical body roll when cornering and the pitch motion when accelerating or braking.

• Vibrations and chocks which are caused by road bumps can be damped more effectively.
