DRIVER'S MANUAL SB220GS - Training Registration System

When driving over 25 or 50 km/h, the
electronic control system will disengage the
throttle operation. The engine speed control
can be switched of with memory/stop button
(F).
EGAS WARNING LAMP (C1)
If a fault occurs in the electronic accelerator
pedal, the warning lamp (C1, red) will either
flash or remain on, depending upon the type
of fault. If the lamp remains on, this indicates
a fault of a less serious nature. A flashing
lamp, however, indicates a serious fault and
a DAF BUS dealer should be notified without
delay.
ASR
In combination with ABS, the vehicle can
also be equipped with an ASR installation.
The ASR installation prevents slipping of the
wheels when driving on slippery roads.
Depending on the situation, the ASR system
reduces engine speed or slows down the
slipping wheel.
If the ASR system is activated, a warning
lamp will light up at the display panel.
DO NOT ADJUST YOUR DRIVING
BEHAVIOUR TO THE ASR SYSTEM.
AIR SUSPENSION (ECAS)*
The vehicle can be optionally equipped with
an electronically controlled suspension and
height control system, ECAS (Electronically
Controlled Air Suspension).
The vehicle’s chassis height is recorded in
the microprocessor’s memory. If the chassis
height changes then it is automatically
adjusted.
- The vehicle can be raised or lowered by
depressing the RAISE/LOWER
VEHICLE switch (33) (see
CONTROLS). The vehicle will be raised
by depressing the top part of the switch.
This position is used when a large
ground clearance is temporarily
required, as for example when driving
onto a ferry boat.
The vehicle will be lowered by depressing
the bottom part of the switch (up to
the bump stop).
The height adjustment may only be
used temporarily.
The vehicle will automatically return to
the driving level at a speed greater than
15 km/h.
Note that the vehicle can be raised or
lowered without the risk of trapping
somebody between the vehicle and the
edge of the pavement.
Note:
Depending on the constructor, there
could possibly be a kerb sensor which
will stop the vehicle being lowered when
an obstacle is detected.
- The vehicle can be brought back to its
normal driving level after being raised,
lowered or knelt using the “DRIVING
LEVEL” switch (35) (see CONTROLS).
- The vehicle can be knelt at the front
whilst stationary using the “MANUALLY
OPERATED VEHICLE KNEELING”
switch (37) (see CONTROLS). The
vehicle will kneel at a certain set height
whilst the switch is depressed.
If the switch is released before the
kneeling height is reached then, depending
on the design, the following will
happen:
- the kneeling is stopped;
- the kneeling is interrupted and the
vehicle returns to the DRIVING
LEVEL.
