
Speed thresholds for raising the vehicle
only apply if Automatic Aero Mode is
enabled.

To enter Aero Mode manually push the height
selector switch down once from NRH at any
vehicle speed. To return to NRH push the
height selector switch up once while vehicle

Entry/Exit Mode (Lowers the vehicle approxi -
mately 3 inches (73 mm)) – This position lowers
the vehicle for easier passenger entry and exit as
well as lowering the rear of the vehicle for easier
loading and unloading of cargo. To enter Entry/
Exit Mode, push the height selector switch down
twice from the NRH while the vehicle speed is
below 33 mph (53 km/h). Once the vehicle
speed goes below 15 mph (24 km/h) the vehicle
height will begin to lower. If the vehicle speed
remains between 15 mph (24 km/h) and
25 mph (40 km/h) for greater than 60 seconds,
or the vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h)
the Entry/Exit change will be canceled. To return
to Normal Height Mode, push the height selector
switch up twice while in Entry/Exit or drive the
vehicle over 15 mph (24 km/h). Entry/Exit mode

The system requires that the ignition be in the ON/
RUN position or the engine running for all user
requested changes. When lowering the vehicle, all
of the doors must be closed. If a door is opened at
any time while the vehicle is lowering, the change
will not be completed until the open door(s) is
closed.
This system uses a lifting and lowering pattern
which keeps the headlights from incorrectly
shining into oncoming traffic. When raising the
vehicle, the rear of the vehicle will move up first
and then the front. When lowering the vehicle, the
front will move down first and then the rear.
After the engine is turned off, it may be noticed that
the air suspension system operates briefly; this is
normal. The system is correcting the position of the
vehicle to ensure a proper appearance.
To assist with changing a spare tire, the air
suspension system has a feature which allows the
automatic leveling to be disabled

NOTE:
Default Ride Height:

Select Aero Height or Normal Ride Height as the
default for all vehicle speeds and operation.
This is the selected height that the suspension
will level for speed changes (e.g. raising from
Entry/Exit Height at speed, lowering from Off
Road Height at speed, etc.).

Default ride height can be changed by manually
adjusting the ride height switch to Normal Ride
Height or Aero Ride Height and stay in the
selected height for 2.5 seconds. It will be stored
as the default ride height and the height will be
maintained until a new default ride height is
selected.
If equipped with a touchscreen radio, all enabling/
disabling of air suspension features must be done
through the radio

CAUTION!
When in Entry/Exit mode, be aware of your
surroundings, you may not have the clearance
required for certain areas and vehicle damage
may occur.
WARNING!
The air suspension system uses a high pressure
volume of air to operate the system. To avoid
personal injury or damage to the system, see an
authorized dealer for service.
