2-4. Using other driving systems
CAUTION
■Using the high and extra high modes
These modes should only be used for rough off-road conditions. Because the vehi-
cle's center of gravity is higher when in these modes, the vehicle may become
unstable when turning abruptly, resulting in an accident.
■When jacking up the vehicle or installing tire chains
Turn off the AHC and stop the engine, otherwise the vehicle height may change
due to the automatic leveling function, resulting in an accident.
■When driving through water deeper than 1.6 ft. (0.5 m)
Select the “HI” (high) mode and turn off AHC. Drive at 19 mph (30 km/h) or lower.
Otherwise the vehicle height may change due to the automatic leveling function,
resulting in an accident.
■If your vehicle must be towed
Put the vehicle height in the normal mode and turn off AHC, otherwise the vehicle
height may change due to the automatic le veling function, resulting in an accident.
■If your vehicle becomes stuck in a ditch
Turn off AHC, otherwise the vehicle height may change due to the automatic level-
ing function, resulting in an accident.
