If you are in the hold at XLN VOR at 5,910 feet (1,800 meters) once cleared for the approach you cannot descend below 5,910 until established on the 231 degree radial proceeding to XLN 7.3 DME. Once on the 231 radial you can descend to 2,960 feet (800 meters). You cannot go below 2,960 feet in the turn from the XLN 231 radial, 7.3 DME until rolling out on the localizer, at which time you can descend to 2,300 feet until intercepting the glideslope.
its 1500m(4930 feet) at XLN for the IAF
