486 STARTING AND OPERATING

The indicator lamps 3 through 6 will illuminate to show
the current position of the vehicle. Flashing indicator
lamps will show a position which the system is working
to achieve. When raising, if multiple indicator lamps are
flashing, the highest flashing indicator lamp is the posi-
tion the system is working to achieve. When lowering, if
multiple indicators are flashing, the lowest solid indica-
tor lamp is the position the system is working to achieve.
Pushing the “UP” button once will move the suspension
one position higher from the current position, assuming
all conditions are met (i.e. key in ON/RUN position,
engine running, speed below threshold, etc). The “UP”
button can be pushed multiple times, each push will raise
the requested level by one position up to a maximum
position of OR2 or the highest position allowed based on
current conditions (i.e. vehicle speed, etc).
Pushing the “DOWN” button once will move the suspen-
sion one position lower from the current level, assuming
all conditions are met (i.e. key in ON/RUN position,engine running, doors closed, speed below threshold,
etc). The “DOWN” button can be pushed multiple times,
each push will lower the requested level by one position
down to a minimum of Entry/Exit Mode or the lowest
position allowed based on current conditions (i.e. vehicle
speed, etc.)
Automatic height changes will occur based on vehicle
speed and the current vehicle height. The indicator lamps
and EVIC/DID messages will operate the same for
automatic changes and user requested changes.
