A.Adjustment of Rear Axle Roll BAR Switches

1. Raise roll bar by using the switch on center console.

2. Turn ignition key to steering lock position O.

3. Raise vehicle on lift or with jack at the body mounting points so that both rear wheels are off the ground.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT LIFT VEHICLE ON ITS REAR AXLE CENTER PIECE, otherwise the geometry for the adjustment is incorrect! The rear suspension must be fully extended during test and adjustment work.

When using a jack, never get beneath vehicle while it is supported by the jack only. Always use proper stands to rest vehicle on.
