(e) Parking and stopping tips
If you immediately stop the engine to park
the vehicle after off−road driving, the ve-
hicle height is lowered slightly as the ve-
hicle becomes cool. When parking, make
sure there is nothing that will be in con-
tact with the underbody of the vehicle.
When you start the engine, the vehicle
returns to the previous height.
If you park the vehicle for a long time,
the vehicle height may be gradually low-
ered. When parking for a long time, make
sure there is nothing that will be in con-
tact with the underbody of the vehicle.
When you start the engine, the vehicle
returns to the previous height.
If you stop the engine, the vehicle height
may change in accordance with the
change in the temperature. When you
start the engine, the vehicle returns to the
previous height. (f) Rear height control failure warning
If there is a problem somewhere in the
rear height control air suspension, “N”
mode is automatically selected. If this oc-
curs, the manual control mode indicator
light blinks and the vehicle height control
cannot be activated until the malfunction
is corrected. If this is the case, bring your
vehicle to your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible and have it checked.
(a) Selecting manual control mode
To select manual control mode, push
the height control mode select switch
with the vehicle stopped. The manual
control mode indicator light comes on
and the vehicle height is fixed at the
current height. The height can be ad-
justed by pushing the height control
switch.
The selected height is memorized in the
system even after the engine is stopped.
If you push the height control mode select
switch again, the manual control mode in-
dicator light goes out and automatic con-
trol mode is selected.

To raise the vehicle height—
Push the “” side of the switch for two
seconds or more. Each time you push the
switch, the vehicle height increases. When
the vehicle height is about 20 mm (0.8
in.) higher than the standard height, the
“HI” indicator light comes on.
The maximum selectable height is about
40 mm (1.6 in.) higher than the standard
height.
To lower the vehicle height—
Push the “ ” side of the switch. Each
time you push the switch, the vehicle
height decreases.
Tw o −wheel drive models—
When the vehicle height is about 7.5 mm
(0.3 in.) lower than the standard height,
the “LO” indicator light comes on.
The minimum selectable height is about
15 mm (0.6 in.) lower than the standard
height.
Four −wheel drive models—
When the vehicle height is about 15 mm
(0.6 in.) lower than the standard height,
the “LO” indicator light comes on.
The minimum selectable height is about
30 mm (1.2 in.) lower than the standard
height. If the underbody of the vehicle has
touched the surface on bumpy roads, the
vehicle height cannot be lowered with the
height control switch.
When adjusting the vehicle height with
one or more doors open, make sure that
there is nothing that might come into con-
tact with the vehicle body or around the
doors.
If the vehicle height is adjusted on the
slope, or with the selector lever in a posi-
tion other than “P” or “N” while the vehicle
is stopped, you may hear a sound caused
by the expansion and contraction of the
propeller shaft. This does not indicate a
malfunction.
CAUTION
The higher vehicle height should be
only set for severe offroad driving
conditions. Because the vehicle’s cen-
ter of gravity is higher in this setting,
the vehicle may become unstable
when turning abruptly, resulting in an
accident.
NOTICE

When lowering the vehicle, the ve-
hicle must be stopped. Otherwise,
when the vehicle speed exceeds 30
km/h (18 mph), automatic control
mode is activated and “N” is se-
lected automatically. Proper caution
should be taken in places where the
overhead height is limited.
 If the vehicle height is changed fre-
quently when the vehicle is heavily
loaded, the compressor may over-
heat, causing the vehicle height ad-
justment operation to stop.
 Before you lower the vehicle height
with the height control switch,
check under the vehicle to make
sure nothing to damage the vehicle
or no one to be injured is there and
that the underbody of the vehicle
does not touch the ground.
 After unloading, the height of a ve-
hicle equipped with the rear height
control air suspension becomes
slightly higher than the normal ve-
hicle height. Take sufficient care
where the overhead height is re-
stricted.
