CAUTION
When switching the vehicle height mode
Before lowering the vehicle height, check that there are no people under or around
the vehicle, and check for obstacles.
If you do not do this, body parts may be caught in the vehicle, possibly leading to an
accident.
Using the high mode
The high 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, result-
ing in an accident.
When jacking up the vehicle or installing tire chains
Turn off the height control and stop the engine, otherwise the vehicle height may
change due to the automatic leveling function and you may catch part of your body
in the vehicle, resulting in an accident.
When crossing rivers
Select the high mode and turn off the height control. Drive at 18 mph (30 km/h) or
lower. Otherwise the vehicle height may change due to the automatic leveling func-
tion, resulting in an accident.
If your vehicle must be towed
Put the vehicle height in the normal mode and turn off the height control, otherwise
the vehicle height may change due to the automatic leveling function and you may
catch part of your body in the vehicle, resulting in an accident.
If your vehicle becomes stuck in a ditch
Turn off the height control, otherwise the vehicle height may change due to the
automatic leveling function, resulting in an accident.
When loading cargo on the roof luggage carrier
Do not switch to high mode. Sudden steering could cause the vehicle to lose stabil-
ity due to the vehicle' s higher center of gravity, possibly leading to an accident.
