CHECKING THE ANTI-ROLLING FUNCTION
1. Move the wheels to the straight-ahead position.
2. Turn the ignition key to ON.
3. When simulated vehicle-speed signals of 35 km/h (22
mph) or higher are input and the steering wheel is turned
45” or more, the damping force characteristic indicator
light will change to MEDIUM or HARD, depending on the
speed at which the steering wheel is turned.
Check to be sure that this sensitivity increases (for each
control mode) as the vehicle speed increases.
NOTE
The damping force characteristic will return to its previous
level about tow
after the change to MEDIUM or
HARD.
