Chassis<br />

The optimum air pressure is achieved when the vehicle is<br />

standing horizontally. The minimum air pressure must be high<br />

enough to ensure that the air bellows cannot snap through.<br />

When the vehicle is empty this pressure is approx. 0.5 bar<br />

(please check individually); when the vehicle is loaded the value<br />

will be correspondingly higher, depending on the loading.<br />

The maximum permissible operating pressure of the<br />

system is 4.0 bar.<br />

In order to avoid damage to the air bellows during maintenance<br />

work they should be checked for any accumulation of<br />

waste or dirt and, if required, cleaned.<br />

The following cleaning agents are approved for cleaning<br />

the air bellows: soap suds, methanol, ethanol and isopropanol.<br />

3.7 Towing fixture<br />

As an optional extra your motor home can be equipped with<br />

a fixed tow bar. Please see the registration documents for information<br />

concerning the tow bar load and the rear axle load.<br />

Adhere to the permissible tow bar load and rear axle load,<br />

in particular in conjunction with loading of the rear garage.<br />

Simultaneous use of the towing fixture and the rear load<br />

carrier is not permitted.<br />

While manoeuvring to hitch and unhitch loads, ensure that<br />

no-one is standing between the motor home and the trailer.
