VEHICLE HEIGHT CHANGE
(a) Start the engine and change the height control switch
from the NORMAL position to the HIGH and LOW posi-
tions.
Check the time until the height adjustment is completed
and the amount of change in vehicle height.
Adjustment time
From operation of height control switch
to start of compressor.Approx. 2 sec.
From start of compressor to completion
of height adjustment.Approx. 20 sec.
Amount of change in vehicle height
HIGH position: 40 mm (1.57 in.)
LOW position:
