ELECTRONIC CONTROLLED SUSPENSION (ECS) (IF EQUIPPED)
ECS controls the vehicle suspension

sion manually in SPORT mode, NOR-
MAL mode, or HIGH mode.

SPORT mode that provides a tighter sus-
pension and firmer ride. And also, it
enables you to operate the shift pattern
and steering wheel more actively. The
SPORT indicator will illuminate.The SPORT mode is used for sporty driv-
ing such as driving on winding, moun-
tainous roads or high speed driving.
Push the SPORT button again to return
to NORMAL mode that provides a softer

ture the vehicle height may be differ-
ent.
