This warning can be suppressed with
the Menu Control Switch. Each time the
warning is suppressed with the Menu
Control Switch, the value of the
maximum load is increased by 500 kg.
Avoid getting unnecessary fines by
having the value for the maximum axle
load set somewhat below the legal
maximum axle load. The DAF Service
dealer can change the value of the
maximum axle load.
NOTE: The overload indication on the 'Axle load' information screen can
only be activated when the vehicle is at standstill.
NOTE: The axle load can also be monitored using the master display
(Driving support - Axle Load Monitoring). Follow the instructions in the
master display.
12.7 AXLE LOAD CALIBRATION
If the vehicle is equipped with Axle Load Monitoring, perform an axle load calibration
regularly. Do this when the vehicle is first taken into service. The axle load values are
set to a higher value ex-factory. Repeat calibration at least once a year. Calibration is
also necessary when the unsprung mass of the vehicle is changed (for example,
mounting aluminium wheels).
Correct calibration of the axle loads requires a weighbridge on which the individual axle
loads are measured. If the actual value measured deviates from the display reading, it
can be corrected using the remote control. Best results are obtained when the vehicle
is calibrated twice, once empty and once fully laden.
NOTE: Only the truck can be calibrated. Calibration of the trailer or semi-
trailer must be performed on the trailer system.
NOTE: Calibration can only be performed using an extended remote control
(14 buttons).
Calibration using the remote control
Switch on the ignition and activate the driving height.
Use the Menu Control Switch to open the 'Axle load' screen on the master display.
