ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION DAMPERS
Your vehicle has adjustable
suspension dampers. The
adjustment controls are located on
top of the damping rods and can be
adjusted with a small screwdriver.
Remove the cap to access the
control for the front strut.
To access the rear shock, pull the
carpet back in the trunk area. Then,
lift the trim panel and pull rearward
to expose the adjustable suspension
damper.
Position (1) has the lowest damping
force which provides for a more
comfortable ride. Position (5) has
the highest damping force which
provides more responsive handling.
Position (2) is the factory setting
(shown in graphic).
Left and right dampers should always be set to the same dial position.
Front and rear can be adjusted independently to change vehicle response.
