147
2003 4RUNNER from Aug. ’02 Prod. (OM35795U)
“HI” (high) mode—
The vehicle height is about 40 mm (1.6 in.)
higher at the rear than the “N” mode height.
This mode is suitable when driving on the
bumpy roads and through water.
However, when the vehicle speed exceeds
about 30 km/h (19 mph) or over in the
“HI” mode, the “N” mode is automatically
selected.
CAUTION
The “HI” mode should be used for
severe off–road driving condition
only. As the vehicle’s center of gravi-
ty is higher in this setting, the ve-
hicle may become unstable when
turning abruptly resulting in an unex-
pected accident.
“LO” (low) mode—
The vehicle height is about 20 mm (0.8 in.)
lower at the rear than the “N” mode height.
This mode allows you easy access to the
vehicle (getting in and out) and easy load-
ing and unloading operation.
This mode is available when the vehicle
is stopped.
NOTICE
Use the “LO” mode when the vehicle
is stopped. Otherwise, when the ve-
hicle speed exceeds 10 km/h (6 mph),
“N” mode is selected automatically.
So be careful when you drive in any
place where the overhead height is
limited.

dition
