Level Control Systems
If the fabric of the bellows is visible, then the bellows must be replaced.
Upon completion of repair work, the air suspension system of the vehicle raised on the
workshop platform must be refilled with air via the diagnostics. The activation procedures
must also be repeated 6 times. This prevents the bellows from being folded incorrectly.
The vehicle must with be set down on its wheels when the suspension struts are depres-
surized!

Areas on the air bellows which can possibly become leaky are the O-ring at the piston rod
and the seal carrier on the roll piston.
The connectors attached to all cables are identical to the connections on the single-axle air
suspension. 6 mm cable is used. The tightening torque is 3+
1 Nm throughout the system.
Special care must be taken when handling breakage-prone plastic parts of air suspension
elements.
Upon completion of repair work, Belt mode must be deactivated via the diagnostics. The
function LED on the button comes on. No text message appears in the instrument cluster.
The system is OK and ready for operation.
