"HI" (high) mode—
The vehicle height is about 40 mm (1.6
in.) higher at rear than the "N" mode
height.
This mode is suitable when driving on the
bumpy roads and through water.
However, when the vehicle speed exceeds
about 30 km/h (19 mph) or over in the
"HI" mode, the "N" mode is automatically
selected.
CAUTION
The "HI" mode should be used for
severe off- road driving condition
only. Because the vehicle's center of
gravity is higher in this setting, the
vehicle may become unstable when
turning abruptly, resulting in accident.

The vehicle height is about 20 mm (0.8
in.) lower at rear than the "N" mode

vehicle (getting in and out) and easy load-
ing and unloading operation.
This mode is available when the vehicle
speed is under about 12 km/h (7 mph).
