1: Height control mode select switch
2: Height control switch
This rear height control air suspension
controls the vehicle height depending
on vehicle driving conditions.
You can choose automatic control mode
or manual control mode. In automatic
control mode, you can select the ve-
hicle height between “HI” (high), “N”
(normal) and “LO” (low) modes with the
height control switch. In manual control
mode, you can adjust the vehicle height
seamlessly with the height control
switch.
To change the mode between automatic
control mode and manual control mode,
use the height control mode select switch.
The vehicle height is automatically ad-
justed to a selected height mode. Howev-
er, when the front drive control is in “4LO”
mode, the vehicle height cannot be ad-
justed automatically even if the vehicle
condition changes, but height mode can
be changed manually with the height con-
trol switch.
(a) Vehicle height modes
“N” (normal) mode—
The vehicle height in this mode is stan-
dard. Regardless of the number of occu-
pants or the luggage loading condition, the
vehicle height is always automatically ad-
justed to a fixed height in this mode while
the engine is running.
This mode is suitable for ordinary driving.
“HI” (high) mode—
The vehicle height is about 40 mm (1.6
in.) higher at rear than “N” mode height.
This mode is suitable when driving on
bumpy roads and through water.
However, when the vehicle speed exceeds
30 km/h (18 mph) in “HI” mode, “N” mode
is automatically selected.
CAUTION
“HI” mode should be only used for
severe off−road driving conditions.
Because the vehicle’s center of gravi-
ty is higher in this setting, the ve-
hicle may become unstable when
turning abruptly, resulting in an acci-
dent.
