Disconnecting a trailer
Stop your vehicle and a trailer in line and perform the following:
1. Put the active height control suspension in the “LO” mode.
(Make sure the vehicle height is in the “LO” mode by pushing
the height select switch on the “B”side.)
2. Turn the ignition switch off or push the height control switch
to turn off the active height control suspension.
3. Set the supporting leg of a trailer on the ground and raise the
hitch by 100 mm (4 in.).
4. Turn the ignition switch on or push the height control switch
to turn on the active height control suspension.
5. Wait for about 20 seconds until the rear vehicle height is
lowered by the automatic leveling function.
6. Make sure the hitch is disconnected. If not, raise the hitch
higher and repeat steps 2 through 5.
7. Move the vehicle forward in the “LO” mode where the hitch
does not touch anything in the “N” mode.
8. Put the active height control suspension in the “N” mode.
Pre−towing safety check
D Check that your vehicle remains level when a loaded or
unloaded trailer is hitched. Do not drive if the vehicle has
an abnormal nose−up or nose−down condition, and check
for improper tongue load, overload, worn suspension or
other possible causes.
D Make sure the trailer cargo is securely loaded so that it
cannot shift.
D Check that your rear view mirrors conform to any federal,
state/provincial or local regulations. If they do not, install
required rear view mirrors appropriate for towing purposes.
