WARNING
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, resulting in an acci-
dent.
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 30 km/h (18 mph) or
lower. Otherwise the vehicle height may change due to the automatic leveling function,
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 auto-
matic 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 stability
due to the vehicle' s higher center of gravity, possibly leading to an accident.
