PANIC BUTTON FOR INDEPENDENT BRAKING OF THE TRAILER IN EMERGENCY SITUTATIONS
GAIN CONTROL LEVER FOR INSTANT ADJUSTMENT OF BRAKING CHARACTERISTICS
The AL-KO iQ7 XTREME Mouse is to be mounted in the cab of the towing vehicle within easy reach of the driver.
The mouse serves a number of functions:
Panic Button - The panic button provides an antisway function. Should the trailer get into a sway the panic button is pressed, applying a light braking force to the trailer independent to the towing vehicle. The brakes will be applied lightly for 3 seconds only and should assist in the straightening of the trailer. The tow vehicle & trailer stop lights are also activated.
Variable Gain Control - Enables the driver of the towing vehicle to set the amount of trailer braking from within the cab. Ideally the gain should be set so as the towing vehicle and trailer brake together. Excessive braking of the trailer will result in premature wearing of the trailers brake shoes/pads.
