Air suspension
Vehicle height will be automatically adjusted
according to road speed in order to maintain
driveability and handling.
Some of the Terrain Response programs will
automatically adjust the suspension height.
Vehicle height can be manually adjusted via the
raise/lower lever

made when the engine is running and the driver and
passenger doors are closed.
Indicators 2 or 7 will illuminate to show the direction
of movement. They extinguish when the height
change movement is completed.
Off-road height 3 , provides improved ground
clearance and approach, departure and break-over
angles.
On-road height 4 , is the normal height for the
vehicle.
Access height 5 , lowers the vehicle to provide easier
entry, exit and loading of the vehicle. This position
may be selected up to 40 seconds after the starter
switch is turned off.
Crawl (locked at Access height) 6 , allows the vehicle
to be driven at low speeds at access height, to give
increased roof clearance.
