Active chassis (Four C)
Active chassis, Four-C (Continuously Con-
trolled Chassis Concept), regulates the cha-
racteristics of the shock absorbers so that the
vehicle's driving characteristics can be
adjusted. There are three settings: Comfort,
Sport and Advanced.
Comfort
Comfort mode offers a somewhat softer ride
and the transmission shifts gears at lower
rpm. This mode is particularly suitable for
long-distance highway driving. The indicator
light in the button will be on when this mode
is selected.
Sport
In this mode, the vehicle's body sway is
reduced during cornering and steering
response is more immediate. The transmis-
sion shifts up at higher rpm for sportier driv-
ing. The indicator light in the button will be on
to indicate that Sport mode has been
selected.
Advanced
In this mode, body sway in curves is minimal
and steering response is very direct. Gear
shifting is done at high rpm in each gear for
dynamic and active driving.
Operation
Chassis settings
Use the buttons in the center console to
change setting. The setting in use when the
engine is switched off is activated the next
time the engine is started.
Adjustable steering force*
Steering force increases with the speed of the
vehicle to give the driver enhanced sensitivity.
At low speed the vehicle is easy to steer in
order to facilitate parking, etc.
Steering force can be changed under

NOTE
This steering force level menu function
cannot be accessed when the vehicle is in
motion.
NOTE
In certain situations, the power steering
may become too warm and will have to be
temporarily cooled down. While this is
happening, the power steering effect will
be reduced slightly and somewhat more
effort may be required to turn the steering
wheel.
If this occurs, a message will be displayed
in the instrument panel.
