I shudder in RDCs when the shunting God comes out from under a trailer with a loud bang of the 5th wheel coming up and trailer nose dropping :imp:
My Scania like Mercs and DAFs you can lower the suspension with out the hand set as there’s a button on the dash , only takes a few seconds but is far more professional

do you happen to know what the button looks like on a merc please. save me scrambling for the remote

It’s on your steering wheel controls.

I really don’t think it is.
Unless you mean left hand side controlling the sat nav screen in switchesâ– â– ?

Mine ain’t that modern; 2018 Actros. Doesn’t have a built in satnav.

If yours is same as mine, watch this; all will be explained.

If there ain’t one in the truck, ask the boss for one. You won’t lose any face for wanting to know how to use the vehicle properly. Far better than guessing and screwing something up. Every day is a school day in this job.
