Abstract: A method for operating a fuel-operated vehicle heater, wherein after receipt of a switch-off signal by a control unit of the fuel-operated vehicle heater, a shutdown phase is initiated, during which remaining fuel present in the fuel-operated vehicle heater is combusted, and wherein a restart phase is initiated by the control unit after receipt of a switch-on signal during the shutdown phase, without the shutdown phase being terminated after complete combustion of the remaining fuel.

Abstract: A method to operate a fuel-operated vehicle heater comprising the lowering of a combustion air ratio ? between supplied combustion air and supplied fuel to a combustion chamber of the fuel-operated vehicle heater from a starting value ?start>1 to a range ?<?start for a time period ?t.

Abstract: A vehicle air suspension system includes at least two spring bellows assigned to pneumatic springs on opposite vehicle sides of a vehicle axle. The springs can be connected via connection lines, each of which is provided with a level-regulating valve, to a main pressure line and can be shut off with respect thereto. The main pressure line can be connected via a main pressure valve alternately to a compressed air source and to a compressed air sink. The connection lines of the spring bellows are connected to each other via a connection line provided with a throttle and can be shut off by a shut-off valve. A mechanically activatable shut-off valve is coupled to one of the level-regulating valves arranged on the offside of the vehicle such that the shut-off valve is open when the level-regulating valve is closed and is closed when the level-regulating valve is open.

Abstract: A suspension system includes spring bellows that are associated with pneumatic springs of vehicle axles, are connectable by lines having level control valves to a main pressure line, and can be shut off with respect thereto. The main line is connectable by valves alternately to a compressed air source and a sink, and can be shut of with respect thereto. To set different air mass flow rates when air is supplied to/removed from the bellows, the bellows of the springs at least on a vehicle axle or side can be connected to the main line in parallel with the connecting lines, at least by further connecting lines having further level control valves, and can be shut off with respect thereto. The further valves have nozzle cross-sectional surfaces the same size as the other level control valves. Chokes are downstream of the further valves in the ventilation direction, the cross-sectional surfaces thereof being smaller than the nozzle cross-sectional surfaces of the further valves.
