extensive demanding tests in various usage condi-
tions of the RS and SM vehicles. If you intend to use
them on more specific ground, following are a few
guidelines for setup. Always start from the suspen-
sions standard setting before making any change.
Afterwards, increase or decrease the adjusting
clicks, one at a time.
