摘要

Adjustment device for adjusting shutoff elements of an air inlet of a motor vehicle, wherein the shutoff elements are adjustable between an open position in which the air inlet is substantially open and a closed position in which the air inlet is substantially closed, includes a drive unit for adjusting the shutoff elements between at least the open position and the closed position, and a fail-safe mechanism which is arranged for adjusting the air inlet to a predefined position in case of a calamity situation. The adjustment device includes a blocking mechanism for blocking the operation of the fail-safe mechanism in predetermined situations, wherein in such predetermined situations the shutoff elements are adjustable to a predefined position without activation of the fail-safe mechanism.
