CAUTION

■

Selecting the correct height mode

●

HI mode should only be used when driving on rough roads, for example when

driving off-road. Because the vehicle’s center of gravity will become higher when

in the mode, the vehicle may become unstable when turning abruptly, resulting in

an accident.

●

Do not select HI mode when loading cargo on the roof luggage carrier.

Because the vehicle’s center of gravity will become higher when in the mode, the

vehicle may become unstable when turning abruptly, resulting in an accident.

●

Before lowering vehicle height, check that there is no one under the vehicle.

NOTICE

■

Be careful in any place where overhead space is limited

The vehicle height will rise when a higher mode is selected or cargo is unloaded.

This may cause damage to the vehicle.

■

Do not select LO mode when driving on bumpy roads

If the underbody of the vehicle touches a rugged road surface, the vehicle may be

damaged.

■

Changing vehicle height

Do not change vehicle height frequently.

The compressor may overheat and stop operation.

■

When on the extremely uneven roads with rocks

Sometimes the vehicle height is not adjusted because it is judged as uneven road

driving.
