Rear Spoiler, Manually Raising And Lowering

The switch for manually raising and lowering the rear spoiler (the rear spoiler adjustment switch - E127-) is located under the instrument panel near the steering column. Raising and lowering the rear spoiler manually can only be undertaken when the vehicle is stationary or travelling less than 150 km/h (approx. 94 mph).







When the ignition is switched on and the switch is moved to position -1- the rear spoiler moves to the fully raised position in one movement. Lowering is completed in several steps until the limit stop is reached when the switch is moved to end position -2- (as protection). When the vehicle speed is higher than 20 km/h the lowering occurs in one step.

WARNING:
- There is a danger of being caught/trapped!
- Always ensure there is sufficient clearance when raising and lower the rear spoiler manually.

When working on the rear spoiler it is sensible to raise the rear spoiler fully before commencing work on the unit.

NOTE: Do not press the raised spoiler inward (or pull outward) by hand further.
