Pressing the “DOWN” button once will move the
suspension one position lower from the current
level, assuming all conditions are met (i.e. en-
gine running, doors closed, speed below
threshold, etc). The “DOWN” button can be
pressed multiple times. Each press will lower
the requested level by one position down to a
minimum of Park Mode or the lowest position
allowed based on current conditions (i.e. ve-
hicle speed, etc.)
Automatic height changes will occur based on
vehicle speed and the current vehicle height.
The indicator lamps and EVIC messages will
operate the same for automatic changes and
user requested changes.
•
Off-Road 2 (OR2) – Indicator lamps 4, 5, and
6 will be illuminated when the vehicle is in
OR2.
•
Off-Road 1 (OR1) – Indicator lamps 4 and 5
will be illuminated when the vehicle is in
OR1.
•
Normal Ride Height (NRH) – Indicator lamp 4
will be illuminated when the vehicle is in this
position.
•
Park Mode – Indicator lamp 3 will be illumi-
nated when the vehicle is in Park Mode. If
Park Mode is requested while vehicle speed
is between 15 mph (24 km/h) and 25 mph
(40 km/h), indicator lamp 4 will remain on
solid and indicator lamp 3 will flash as the
system waits for the vehicle to reduce speed.
If vehicle speed is reduced to, and kept
below, 15 mph (24 km/h) indicator lamp 4 will
turn off and indicator lamp 3 will flash until
Park Mode is achieved at which point indica-
tor lamp 3 will go solid. If during the height
change to Park Mode, the vehicle speed
exceeds 15 mph (24 km/h), the height
change will be paused until the vehicle speed
either goes below 15 mph (24 km/h) and the
height change continues to Park Mode, or
exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h) and the vehicle
height will return to NRH. Park Mode may be
selected while the vehicle is not moving
provided that the engine is still running and
all doors remain closed.
ON-ROAD DRIVING TIPS
Utility vehicles have higher ground clearance
and a narrower track to make them capable of
performing in a wide variety of off-road applica-
tions. Specific design characteristics give them
a higher center of gravity than ordinary cars.
An advantage of the higher ground clearance is
a better view of the road, allowing you to
anticipate problems. They are not designed for
cornering at the same speeds as conventional
two-wheel drive vehicles any more than low-
slung sports cars are designed to perform sat-
isfactorily in off-road conditions. If at all pos-
sible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers.
As with other vehicles of this type, failure to
operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss
of control or vehicle rollover.
